UCF men’s basketball head coach Johnny Dawkins immediately infused the program with a boost of energy upon his arrival, bringing the Black and Gold to the NIT Semifinal in his first season and marching the Knights to the NCAA Tournament in his third. Now in his 16th season as a head coach and eighth at UCF, Coach Dawkins is celebrating his 300 career wins.
From victory No. 75 which won Stanford an NIT title to No. 300, coming against a ranked team in the toughest basketball conference in America at the helm of the Black and Gold, Coach Dawkins has always carried himself with class. Below are some of the highlight wins of his career that helped him reach his most recent milestone.
HUGE night for @Coach_Dawkins!
