Knox brings CBA head coaching experience to the Xplosion. Last year, he led the Indiana Alley Cats to a 23-25 record in his first season. The Alley Cats have suspended operations for the 2007-08 season.
The Xplosion will turn to Knox to improve upon a 10-38 record in the team’s inaugural season in the CBA.
“We feel that Carlos will be an asset to the organization,” Xplosion CEO Richard Hersperger said. “He will do an excellent job in preparing our players for the challenges of the CBA season.”
Knox began his coaching career at IUPUI in 2001 and helped lead his alma mater to its first ever NCAA Tournament appearance in 2003 as an assistant. In 2005-06, Knox was an Alley Cats’ assistant as the team went 28-4 in the ABA.
As a player, Knox became the most prolific player in IUPUI history. He holds the school’s career records for points, points-per-game and steals. He played professionally in the NBA with the Indiana Pacers and internationally in Croatia, Germany and Venezuela, before suffering a career-ending knee injury. |
