Hall of Fame
As the first coach for Green Bay men's basketball, Dave Buss led the team to almost immediate national success as head coach from 1969-1982 which included competing in NAIA, DII and DI. His prolific teams included some of the most successful players in program history and recorded two NCAA DII runner up finishes and three DII Final Four appearances. Alongside assistant coach Chuck Aslakson, Buss garnered national attention for their defense and is credited for creating a brand of Green Bay basketball and success, which propelled the program to DI status. Buss was the first coach inducted to the Phoenix Hall of Fame in 1995.
