Danny Young begins his eighth season as head coach of the University of Montevallo men's basketball program. His record in seven seasons at Montevallo is 158-68 (.699). He has been a head coach at the Division II level for nine seasons and his teams have advanced to the NCAA “Sweet Sixteen” in seven of those seasons including last season’s run. Three of those teams advanced to the “Elite Eight” while one went to the “Final Four.” His overall record as a head coach stands at 209-79 (.726).

Last season, he guided the Falcons to their first berth in the Peach Belt Conference tournament (their first year in the conference) and the Falcons seventh consecutive trip to a conference tournament. After a school record twelve consecutive wins to start the season and twenty-two wins in the regular season, Young led the Falcons past the top seeded and number one ranked team in the country, Augusta State en route to the Championship game. The Falcons then continued their postseason run to the “Sweet Sixteen” of the NCAA Division II National Tournament.

The program has transformed into one of the stronger NCAA Division II programs in the country. In a four year span from 2003-07 the Falcons appeared in two "Elite Eights", four consecutive NCAA Division II South Regional Tournaments, including back-to-back regional championships in 2006 and 2007, as well as three Gulf South Conference championships (2004, 2005 and 2007).

The sixth head coach in the 44-year history of the program, Young arrived on the Montevallo's campus in the summer of 2003. That season, with only one returning player, Young molded his first Falcons squad into a solid competitive unit, winning 19 more games than the previous year's team, and posting the biggest turn-around in UM basketball history, tying a school best 23 wins. The team also went on to win their first-ever Gulf South Conference championship, and to the "Sweet 16" of the NCAA Division II National Tournament.

He was named Gulf South Conference East Division Coach of the Year for three consecutive seasons (2005-06-07) and was named South Region Coach of the Year by the National Association of Basketball Coaches in 2007.  He also had the opportunity to coach in the inaugural Collegiate Basketball Invitational, spotlighting the top small college men's basketball players in the country (NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA) in the spring of 2007.

Prior to UM, Young was Athletic Director and head men's basketball coach at Salem International University in Salem, West Virginia. He was associated with the Top-20 ranked SIU program for seven years, and posted a 51-11 (.823) record in two seasons as head coach. His first collegiate victory came while still an assistant coach, as he led SIU to victory over West Liberty State University in a game that the head coach was suspended. He guided the Tigers to a No. 18 NCAA Division II final national ranking in 2003, but SIU made it as high as No. 4 earlier in the season and appeared in the Top Ten both of his seasons as head coach. Young's team also won the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship and went to the NCAA East Regional, finishing with a 25-6 record overall in 2002-03. He also had a 138-21 (.867) record in five seasons as an assistant coach with the Tigers from 1996-2001, which included three WVIAC championships, two NCAA Division II East Region Championships, one NCAA "Sweet 16" appearance and one NCAA Division II "Final Four" appearance.

Prior to SIU, Young served as an assistant at Wheeling Jesuit University from 1994-96, and spent a season as an assistant at the University of Nebraska-Omaha. Young's first coaching job came when he returned to his alma mater, Grand Canyon University, for three seasons as an assistant after playing two years professionally. While there, he helped the Antelopes to a 62-28 (.689) record including two appearances in the NCAA Division II West Regional.

In his coaching tenure, Young has coached nine All-Americans and six Conference Player of the Year selections. Former UM standout Marcus Kennedy became the first player in Gulf South Conference history to be named Division Player of the Year twice in a four-year career under Young. In his career, Young has guided teams to an NCAA Division II Regional Tournament 14 times.

A native of Duncan, Arizona, and standout athlete in high school, Young earned Honorable Mention All-American honors and was also nominated to the McDonald's All-American Basketball Team. In college, Young was coached by former NBA player, Paul Westphal. He later earned his bachelor's degree in Physical Education from Grand Canyon University in 1990.

Young and his wife Sabrina reside in Pelham with their children Caleb, Sophia and Cole.
