When asked about his coach philosophy, Coach Cannon said, "Our program will be built on playing tough. Toughness is built in layers and having a detail-oriented daily approach. Our players will be held accountable to a high standard every day in all aspects of their lives." Coach Cannon also said his college coach, Ja Haven's is the coach who has most impacted his life. "Coach Havens has had a tremendous impact on my life on and off the court. His commitment to be the best at his craft is second to none. All while intentionally focusing on being a great husband, father, and friend. He creates a sense of family in his programs that I strive to replicate at Bethany." Bethany is excited to welcome Coach Brett Cannon!
