Description
Todd Simon is entering his second season as the head coach of the Bowling Green State University’s men’s basketball program in 2024-25. In his first season with the Falcons, Coach Simon orchestrated one of the quickest turnarounds in program history. In his first season, the Falcons tallied 20 wins for just the 10th time in the program's MAC era, becoming one of 10 teams in the nation to go from 20 losses in 2022-23 to 20 wins in 2023-24. Simon joined the Falcons after spending seven seasons at Southern Utah as the head coach of the Thunderbirds. Under Simon’s leadership, Southern Utah went 118-96 with three straight 20 wins seasons from 2020-2023. Prior to arriving at Southern Utah, Simon was named interim head coach of the UNLV men's basketball program in January 2016 and was in his third year as associate head coach with UNLV. Before his time as a Runnin' Rebel, Simon served Findlay Prep in Henderson, Nevada for seven years in both head and assistant coaching roles. During his career Simon has helped develop and coach several players that have become top NBA draft picks, including Anthony Bennett, who was selected as the top overall pick in 2013, Rashad Vaughn, Avery Bradley, Christian Wood, Jorge Gutierrez, Cory Joseph, DeAndre Liggins, Nick Johnson and Tristan Thompson.
