Career

Dave Rose was named the head basketball coach at BYU in 2005, replacing Steve Cleveland and began the first of six straight 20-win seasons in 2005-06. Rose inherited a 9-21 team and immediately posted a 20-9 record, the second best turnaround in college basketball in 2005-06.[2] Rose recruited All-American Jimmer Fredette in 2007 and coached him during his four-year BYU career. In 2010, Rose coached BYU to their first NCAA tournament victory in 17 years in a double-overtime win against the University of Florida.[3] In 2011, Rose's team shared the regular season Mountain West title with San Diego State and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen in the NCAA tournament, BYU's first appearance in 30 years.[4]

In April 2011, Rose signed a five-year head coaching contract extension with BYU.[5]

Personal Life

Rose is married to wife Cheryl and they have three children. Rose served a full-time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Manchester, England from 1977-79.[6] In June 2009 he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and returned to coaching later that year.[7]
