- Scott Brooks, social sciences alumnus, is featured in the Daily Pilot September 18, 2012
From the Daily Pilot:
Brooks, the NBA Coach of the Year in 2009-10, when he led the Thunder to the NBA
Playoffs with a 27-win improvement over the previous season, signed a four-year contract
with Oklahoma City in June for $4 million per season. But meeting with a handful of
media members Tuesday, it was casual candor and home-spun humility that helped the
multimillionaire shine more brilliantly than any Back Bay bling. "He's the best representative
of UC Irvine ever," said tournament co-chair Otto Reyer, a former UCI administrator
who last year convinced a then-reluctant Brooks to lend his increasingly famous name
to this fundraiser.
