John Bunn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John W. Bunn (September 26, 1898 – August 13, 1979) was an American basketball coach and key contributor to the game of basketball. The Wellston, Ohio native played three seasons under coach Phog Allen at University of Kansas while earning his bachelors degree (1917-21). He later became an assistant to Allen for nine seasons (1921-30). In 1930 he became men's basketball head coach at Stanford University, where he coached college all-time great Hank Luisetti. After he left Stanford, Bunn went on to coach Springfield College (1946-56) and Colorado State College (now the University of Northern Colorado) (1956-63). He also authored six influential books on coaching, officiating and team play. On October 1, 1964 Bunn was inducted to the Basketball Hall of Fame as a contributor.
