Joe Scott (basketball Coach)
Joseph Winston Scott (born July 28, 1965) is an American college basketball coach who is currently in his second stint as the head coach at Air Force. Scott previously was head coach at Air Force once before, as well as at Princeton and Denver.

In 1990, Scott earned his J.D. degree at Notre Dame Law School and b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
