Chapters: Larry Bird, Larry Brown, List of Indiana Pacers Head Coaches, Rick Carlisle, Jack Ramsay, Jim O'brien (Basketball, Born 1952), Bob Hill. Excerpt:Robert G. Hill (born November 24, 1948) is an American basketball coach. He was born in Pittsburgh , Pennsylvania . Hill grew up in Mount Sterling, Ohio moving to Worthington, Ohio for high school. Upon graduating from high School, Hill entered Bowling Green State University .

At Fordham University Between 1999 and 2003, Hill was head coach at Fordham Universi... ... Read more
