South Iredell officially announced the hiring of Brian Reese as its next varsity boys basketball coach on Tuesday.
A former national champion with the North Carolina Tar Heels? This is a major splash in the Iredell coaching ranks.
Just think, Reese has the luxury of being able to pick the brain of one of the greatest college coaches of all-time, that being Dean Smith.
Couple that with the fact Reese, who is very humble, seems driven to succeed at a program falling on hard times, and you've got lots of potential.
Two thumbs up for this selection, South Iredell. Way up.

Love this hire. This is exactly what South Iredell needs. When you get a coach with a pedigree like Reese's the program becomes very attractive to talented players looking to get noticed. Reese is a member of the Dean Smith family tree of coaches (George Karl, Larry Brown, Roy Williams) so if someone has the talent to play at a Carolina they will definitly get a look with a former Heel on the bench. I see nothing but good coming for SI in the next few years. Gives me another reason to be proud to be a Viking.
