About
Rick Byrd (born April 30, 1953) is an American college basketball coach and the current head coach of the Belmont Bruins men's basketball team. He led Belmont to seven NCAA Division I tournaments in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2015 and is currently one of five active NCAA coaches to have 500 wins at one school. Byrd is also one of 11 active coaches to have more than 600 career wins. Byrd won his 700th game as a head coach on January 17, 2015, when Belmont defeated Austin Peay 89-83. Byrd is first among all active NCAA Division I men’s basketball head coaches (min. 10 years at school) when ranked by percentage of schools’ all-time wins; having accounted for over 59 percent of the total victories in Belmont history. Only three head coaches in the nation have been at their respective institutions longer than Byrd's 30 years of service at Belmont. Under Byrd's guidance, the Bruins have won 239 games and posted a remarkable 167-38 (.815) record in conference games over the past 10 years. Byrd, from 2011-2014, led the Bruins to be one of only six NCAA Division I men's basketball programs to win 26 or more games, joining the select company of Duke, Florida, Syracuse, VCU, and Wichita State.
