Tony Greene

Tony Greene joined Baylor's women's basketball program as an assistant coach in June of 2021. He was promoted to associate head coach in July of 2023 and enters his fifth season with the program in 2025-26.

Greene primarily works with the guards and the team's defensive strategies. He helped Sarah Andrews become a second-team All-Big 12 performer in her starting role after coming in sparingly off the bench the season prior and helped her elevate to a first-team selection in 2023. In addition to working with the guards, Greene served as the defensive coordinator for a Baylor team that led the conference in field-goal percentage defense in year one on staff and helped the Bears hold their opponents to just 29.8% from range in year two.

The Bears' Bella Fontleroy got a Big 12 All-Defensive Team honor following the 2024-25 slate, paired with Darianna Littlepage-Buggs' WBCA All-America Honorable Mention season that averaged 13.8 points and 10.0 rebounds per game. 

Greene came to Baylor from Marquette, where he was an assistant coach and brings 27 seasons of experience as a collegiate coach. In Greene’s only season at Marquette, he helped the Golden Eagles to a 19-7 record, a Big EAST Tournament title appearance, and Marquette made the NCAA Tournament’s first round in 2021.
 
Greene finished his playing career at Langston University in Oklahoma in 1993, and from there his illustrious coaching career began. He stayed on as as an assistant coach with the women’s program beginning with the 1994-95 season and stayed through the 2007-08 campaign.
 
After leaving his alma mater, Greene spent four seasons as an assistant at Grambling State, three years at Texas Southern, three at Toledo, two at Ole Miss and one at Marquette. His teams have reached the postseason 12 times, Greene has guided more than 30 players to all-conference honors, he’s coached six All-Americans, five conference players of the year and multiple Academic All-Americans.
 
While at Ole Miss, he was a part of a staff that brought in the No. 1-ranked SEC recruiting class and the No. 13-ranked national class by espnW, which included two five-star and a pair of three-star recruits. espnW also ranked Greene’s 2012 class at Texas Southern No. 6 among mid-majors and No. 42 in the nation. Greene also specialized in guard development in all his coaching stops.
