Rodney Watson, Men's Basketball Head Coach Rodney Watson became the ninth head coach in the history of the Screaming Eagles in May of 2009.
Watson begins his first season at the helm of the Screaming Eagles after 21 seasons at Southern Illinois University. He has been the associate head coach the last two seasons after spending 19 seasons as an assistant coach under head coaches Rich Herrin, Bruce Weber, Matt Painter, and Chris Lowery.
During Watson's tenure at SIU, the Salukis have won 11 Missouri Valley Conference championships and qualified for nine NCAA Tournaments and six NITs. SIU also compiled a 430-237 record, a .645 winnings percentage, and was ranked in the top 15 nationally in scoring defense four times in the last five seasons. Watson also helped direct five Salukis to Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) Player of the Year honors; four to Newcomer of the Year awards; five to Freshman of the Year accolades; and nine to Defensive Player of the Year honors. The Salukis also had 30 players earn All-MVC honors (18 first team and 12 second) during Watson's 21 seasons.
The Salukis' success was not limited to the basketball court with 23 of the last 24 seniors earning bachelor's degrees since 2002. SIU had the Prairie Farms Student Athlete of the Year for men's basketball three times since the award was created in 2002.
A native of Paris, Illinois, Watson started his coaching career at Coulterville High School, where he guided the Eagles to the program's first regional championship. He moved to Madison High School in 1984 and led the Trojans to a regional and sectional championship, advancing to the Illinois Elite Eight.
The success at the high school level was a springboard to the college ranks, beginning with a two-year stretch in 1986 at the University of Nebraska-Omaha. He moved to SIU in 1988, beginning his 20-plus season association with the Salukis.
Watson and his wife Carol have four children, Ashley, Zachary, and twins, Olivia and Blake.
Gerad Good, Assistant Men's Basketball Coach Gerad Good begins his first season as an assistant men's basketball coach at the University of Southern Indiana and a part of Head Coach Rodney Watson's inaugural staff.
Good travels south from Indiana University-Purdue University Ft. Wayne to join Watson’s staff. He has assisted IPFW Head Coach Dane Fife for the past two seasons, accumulating a 26-35 record.
Before joining IPFW’s staff, Good was an assistant coach at John A. Logan College (Carterville, Illinois) for three seasons where he and Watson became closely associated. He helped the Volunteers to a 74-22 record during his tenure.
Good began his association with collegiate basketball as a player for two seasons at Husson College (Bangor, Maine). He concluded his college hoops career at Manchester College where he played two seasons for Head Coach Steve Alford.
After his playing career at Manchester, Good spent two seasons as a student assistant coach and completed his bachelor’s degree in physical education in 1996.
Good and his wife Robin have a son Miles.
Derrick Tilmon, Assistant Men's Basketball Coach Derrick Tilmon begins his first season as an assistant men's basketball coach at the University of Southern Indiana and a part of Head Coach Rodney Watson's inaugural staff.
Tilmon started his collegiate career as a player at Hiawassee Junior College (Madisonville, Tennessee) before playing three seasons at Southern Illinois University. He was a three-year starting forward and center for the Salukis, ending his career as SIU’s 13th all-time leading shot blocker. The Salukis were 20-13 and advanced to the second round of the NIT during Tilmon’s senior season.
After his playing days at SIU, Tilmon spent five years playing professionally in Europe. He earned a spot on the Netherlands All-Star team and was a part of the Netherlands championship series.
Tilmon entered the coaching ranks after his playing days, helping lead Shorter College one year and Kentucky Wesleyan College three seasons.
Tilmon, who graduated from SIU with a bachelor’s degree in health education in 2000, and his wife Nicole, have a son, Derrick, Jr.
Brent Owen, Men's Basketball Graduate Assistant Brent Owen makes the transition from player to coach in 2009-10, joining Head Coach Rodney Watson's staff as a graduate assistant.
The three-time Academic All-GLVC performer, who appeared in 54 games as a member of the Screaming Eagles, posted his best game last season with career-high eight points in the win over Maryville University.
Prior to playing for USI, Owen was an Illinois All-State performer at Chrisman High School.
