The former Seminole is taking the next step in his coaching career.
Montay Brandon, who played under Leonard Hamilton at Florida State from 2012-2016, has accepted an assistant coaching job at Stetson University, according to the team's Twitter page. Brandon has spent time as an assistant at UNC Charlotte and Maryland Eastern Shore before heading to Stetson.
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.
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.
