Brad Anderson, who previously worked at the University of North Texas since 2001, joined the University of Memphis Athletic Department in June 2009 as the athletic trainer for the Tigers basketball program. While at North Texas, Anderson was the athletic trainer for the Mean Green basketball program and also assisted with the school's football squad.

In his first two years, Anderson was a member of Pastner's staff that guided the Tigers to consecutive 20-win campaigns, back-to-back postseason berths (2010 NIT, 2011 NCAA) and a Conference USA Tournament title. Memphis posted 49 combined wins (49-20 record) in 2009-10 and 2010-11, making Anderson a part of the winningest staff under a head coach (Josh Pastner) in his first two seasons in school history.

Last season, the Tigers posted a 25-10 overall record and earned an NCAA Tournament berth. En route to the "Big Dance," Memphis won the program's first conference tournament crown outside the Bluff City since 1987. The Tigers put together a magical ride in the 2011 Conference USA Tournament, winning the title with a thrilling 67-66 victory over UTEP on the Miners' homecourt.

The 2010-11 campaign was the 11th-straight, 20-win season for the Tigers. It was also the 11th-consecutive year the Tigers advanced to the postseason. In Anderson's first season in 2009-10, the Tigers posted a 24-10 overall record and received a National Invitation Tournament (NIT) berth.

Before joining the North Texas Sports Medicine Department in 2001, Anderson was the seasonal assistant athletic trainer for the NFL's New York Giants during the 2000 campaign. The Giants posted a 12-4 regular season record, won the NFC East title and earned a first-round bye in the playoffs. New York defeated Philadelphia and Minnesota en route to an appearance in Super Bowl XXXV in Tampa, Fla.

Prior to his stint with the New York Giants, Anderson spent two seasons from 1997-99 as the seasonal assistant athletic trainer with the NBA's Portland Trailblazers, and in 2000, he served as athletic trainer and strength and conditioning coach for a minor league affiliate of the MLB's Texas Rangers. In the summer of 1998, Anderson was a training camp assistant with the strength and conditioning coaches for the NFL's Oakland Raiders.

In his career, Anderson has worked for three members of the National Athletic Trainers Association's (NATA) Hall of Fame in E.L. "Doc" Harrington and Jim Gallaspy at the Southern Miss and Ronnie P. Barnes of the New York Giants.

Anderson is a certified member of the National Athletic Trainers Association. A Knoxville, Tenn., native, he earned his Bachelor's of Science degree in Athletic Training from the Southern Miss in 1997.
