Omaha Men’s Basketball associate head coach Kyan Brown has been chosen to participate in the fourth annual Silver Waves Media Power Lunch, according to a March 18 announcement. The event is scheduled for April 2 at IU Indianapolis and will coincide with the 2026 NCAA Men’s Final Four.
The Power Lunch brings together 75 rising assistant or head men’s basketball coaches from across the country. Participants will have the opportunity to hear from industry speakers and take part in a networking session.
Brown, who is originally from Alaska, joined Omaha’s coaching staff in 2022 when Chris Crutchfield became head coach. Before his current role, Brown worked at Oral Roberts—his alma mater—and North Dakota State, both members of the Summit League.
In previous years, a total of 12 attendees of this luncheon have advanced to become head coaches. This highlights the event’s reputation as a platform for career development among college basketball coaches.
The program underscores ongoing efforts to support and recognize emerging talent within collegiate basketball coaching ranks. Updates about Omaha Men’s Basketball can be found on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram under @OmahaMBB.
