NASHVILLE – HBCU Fisk University Athletic Director Valencia Jordan has announced a replacement for former NBA All-Star Kenny Anderson as Fisk men’s basketball coach.
Fisk men’s basketball will be led by former Tennesssee State University basketball player Jeremiah Crutcher as the head coach. Crutcher, who prepped at Hunters Lane High School in Nashville, coached Whites Creek High School, also in Nashville, to the TSSAA Class AA Final Four last season. The high-energy coach is expected to bring organization and discipline to the Bulldog program.
“I am excited to get this hire completed,” Jordan said in a statement. “Coach “Crutch” has strong ties in the community and his AAU background has given him inroads across the country. There was a lot of interest in this position based on the quality of the candidates. Bulldog fans will find out real soon why this was a great choice.”
Crutcher started his high school coaching career at Battle Ground Academy in 2013. He went on to coach at his alma mater Hunters Lane, then he had stops at Pearl-Cohn, John Early Middle School and Lebanon High School before finishing up at Whites Creek. Crutcher will officially take over on July 16. A press conference will take place on campus on July 22.
