Christian Laettner is known for making the most famous shot in college basketball history, and now the former Duke University star, NBA player and Western New Yorker wants to head back to college.  But this time as an assistant basketball coach.

Christian is heading to Houston for the NCAA Final Four games where he can connect with coaches from around the college ranks.  Laettner is quoted as saying "I'm ready to start meeting people and networking and I'm available if they're interested in taking a chance on me."

Laettner's ultimate goal is to become a head coach at a big name university.  I'm guessing he'll achieve that goal since he has accomplished just about everything else he has set his mind to.

Good Luck Christian.
