Former Florida State Player Takes Assistant Job in the Atlantic Sun Conference

During his career at Florida State, Brandon started 122 of a possible 135 games, averaging 6.7 PPG and 3.8 RPG as a versatile power forward. His best season came his junior year, the 2014-15 season, averaging 11.8 PPG and 5.5 RPG, before talented players like Terance Mann, Malik Beasley, and Dwayne Bacon came next season and took a lot of the scoring opportunities away from him. 

His 122 starts are a Florida State record, and just behind him are guys like Randy Allen, Michael Snaer, and Jason Rich, while his 135 games played is 7th all-time behind Mann, Okaro White, Trent Forrest, Luke Loucks, Boris Bojanovsky, and Jarquez Smith. He's also one of 34 players all time with 500 rebounds or more in a career at Florida State. 

Brandon will be joining head coach Donnie Jones, who is in his 5th year at Stetson and saw a major improvement from 2021-22 to 2022-23, a season that included a win over Florida State to kick the year off. 

Jones coached the Hatters to their best season since 2000-01 while guiding the program to their first-ever NCAA D1 postseason game in the CBI Tournament. He has also spent time as a head coach at UCF and Marshall and was an assistant on the 2007 Florida team that won a national championship.
