Andy Landers is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Coach who was born on October 8, 1952 in Maryville, Maryville, United States. Andrew Grady Landers (born October 8, 1952) is a retired American college basketball coach who was head women’s basketball coach at the University of Georgia from 1979 to 2015.
During his career at Georgia, Landers was named National Coach of the Year four times and Southeastern Conference (SEC) Coach of the Year three times, and led the Lady Dogs to 23 NCAA Tournaments, five Final Fours, seven SEC regular-season titles, four SEC tournament championships, and 21 twenty-win seasons. He coached two Olympians (who won a combined six Gold Medals), 11 Kodak All-Americans, and 25 future Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) players. Landers was awarded the US Basketball Writers Association (USBWA) Coach of the Year award in 2000. At the time he retired, Georgia’s five Final Four appearances (all under Landers) ranked sixth among all schools.
Landers recorded his 600th career win in just 784 games, which at the time made him the fifth-quickest (out of fourteen total) NCAA Division I women’s basketball head coaches to reach the mark. On February 24, 2013, Landers got his 900th career win in Georgia’s 73–54 victory at Ole Miss.
The Lady Bulldog program Landers inherited had compiled a 37–85 record in its first six seasons and had virtually no budget. However, in his first season, Landers led the Lady Bulldogs to a 16–12 record, and by his fourth year in Athens, he had taken them to their first of five NCAA Final Fours. By 1985, the Lady Dogs were in the National Championship game.
He married the former Pam McClellan in 1981 and has two children, Andrea Lauren and Andrew Joseph.
