Reid Takes Over as BYU Coach
- Share via
Roger Reid, for 11 years an assistant to basketball Coach Ladell Andersen at Brigham Young University, Monday was named to replace Andersen.
Andersen, 60, stepped down Friday after a 14-15 season in which the Cougars failed to survive the Western Athletic Conference tournament.
During the 1987-88 season, the Cougars were 26-6 and were ranked No. 2 in the Associated Press poll at mid-season.
Under Andersen, Reid, 41, had been responsible for BYU’s defense and also had coordinated the Cougars’ recruiting efforts since he joined the staff in 1978.
