Nate Oats Biography

Nate Oats is one of the most popular and richest Head Coach who was born on October 13, 1974 in Watertown, United States. Nathanael J. Oats, born October 13, 1974, is an American basketball coach. He is currently the University of Alabama’s head basketball coach.

Oats has a Romulus record of 222-52 and reached the semifinals five times in the state tournament over 11 years. Oats led his team to a 27-1 record in 2013 and a state class A championship, winning numerous coach of the Year honors from local media. Similar coaching awards were won in 2008, 2009 and 2005.

Oats and his wife Crystal have three daughters, Lexie, Jocie and Brielle. In November 2015, Oats announced on his Facebook page that his wife had an aggressive form of lymphoma and would be undergoing chemotherapy. With his wife’s encouragement, he confirmed that he would not be renouncing his coaching duties. Oats is a Christian.

On April 9, 2015, the same day that Bobby Hurley announced that he would be leaving Buffalo to take the head coaching job at Arizona State, Oats was named the interim head coach at Buffalo. During the days immediately after Hurley announced his departure, Buffalo’s athletic director at the time, Danny White, interviewed the team’s players, all of whom advocated for Oats becoming the permanent head coach. Also, Hurley told White that he would hire Oats at Arizona State if White didn’t hire him permanently. In a 2019 ESPN story on Oats, White recalled, “What stood out is the connections he had with our players. His reputation as a high school coach — most people I asked said he ran it like a Division I college program. Players had a strong relationship with him.” On April 13, Oats was officially given the head coaching job; his base salary was $250,000. The Buffalo roster for his first season as a head coach featured two former Romulus players: Christian Pino and Raheem Johnson.

Bobby Hurley noticed Oats’ coaching while recruiting Romulus guard E. C. Matthews for Rhode Island in 2013. Hurley became the Buffalo head coach shortly thereafter and Oats was hired as his assistant.

Oats briefly described his coaching philosophy in the aforementioned 2019 ESPN story, saying, “We did a culture playbook two summers ago and our three main beliefs — core values, we call them — are max effort, continuous growth and selfless love.” Since taking over as Buffalo head coach, Oats added what the story called “a blue-collar element to his program that reflects Buffalo itself” — the coaching staff charts what it calls “blue-collar points”, defined as any play that contributes to a win but is not recorded in a traditional box score, with examples including but not limited to pass deflections and taking charges. The player with the most such points in a given game receives a construction helmet.
