Speaker Bio

Dr. Joe Brickner grew up in Ohio but attended college in Kansas where he was a basketball student-athlete. He has always loved the game of basketball, but to put bread on the table, he pursued a business career.

Nearly 30 years into that career, he got an opportunity to pursue his dream and become a men’s head college basketball coach. His book, “So, you want to be a cCoach…” is his story, told with the endearing anecdotes that life presents – some will make you laugh, and some will make you cry.

Dr. Brickner not only coached but also taught at the undergraduate and graduate levels. He is now retired living with his beloved bride of over 35 years, Connie. He has two sons, Alex and Scott, who each have three children of their own. He still works out every day and competes in age-division basketball tournaments. He recently became a beekeeper and is writing his second book titled “Musings at 70+.”
