Playing career

Korn played four years at Southern Illinois, three under Bruce Weber and one under Matt Painter and was a member of three-straight Salukis' NCAA Tournament appearances, including the Sweet 16 in 2002.[2]

Coaching career

edit

Korn would transition from playing to the Salukis' coaching staff under Chris Lowery, where he was part of another three-straight NCAA Tournament appearances and a Sweet 16 appearance in 2007.[3] Following Lowery's firing from Southern Illinois, Korn joined Weber's staff at Kansas State for one season as the director of basketball operations before becoming an assistant coach at Missouri State from 2013 to 2016.[4] He'd return to Kansas State in 2016 as an assistant coach, in which the Wildcats had three-straight NCAA Tournament appearances, capped by an Elite Eight run in 2018.[5]

On March 24, 2020, Korn was introduced as the seventh head coach in the Division I era at Southeast Missouri State, replacing Rick Ray.[1][6]
