Timeline
Herb Magee (born June 20, 1941), commonly referred to as the Shot Doctor, is an American former men's college basketball coach, who coached for 54 seasons at NCAA Division II Thomas Jefferson University.
Magee was a two-time All-American and drafted by the Boston Celtics (the 62nd pick of the 1963 NBA draft).
However, he broke his fingers before training camp, and opted instead to return to his alma mater as an assistant coach under Buckey Harris.
Magee received a Bachelor of Science in marketing from Philadelphia University in 1963 and a Master's in Education from St. Joseph's University in 1969.
On September 7, 2021, Magee announced that he would retire following the 2021-22 season.
Magee has been married twice and has two daughters.
The former Philadelphia University was known as Philadelphia College of Textiles & Science and athletically branded as "Philadelphia Textile" when Magee first became head coach in 1967, becoming Philadelphia University in 1999.
He has spent 54 years as head coach, and 62 years as either a player or coach at the school as of 2021.
When Harris retired in 1967, Magee became head coach at the age of 25.
He has spent his entire adult life at the East Falls school as either a player, assistant coach, or head coach.
Magee has earned many awards during his coaching career.
He led the Rams to the College Division National Championship in 1970.
He was also inducted into the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame in 1979.
The Kodak District Coach of the Year in 1993, Magee was also tabbed New York Collegiate Athletic Conference Coach of the Year that season and again in 1994.
In addition, he has been honored as regional Coach of the Year four times, national Coach of the Year twice, and Co-Coach of the Year in the Mideast Collegiate Conference twice.
Coach Magee was inducted into the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame (2008), Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame (1979), Philadelphia University and West Catholic High School Halls of Fame, and honored by numerous organizations throughout his career.
He coached the Olympic Festive team along with John Calipari and was co-coach of the Year in the Mideast Collegiate Conference (twice).

Coach Magee was awarded the honorary degree Doctor of Humane Letters by President Stephen Spinelli Jr. at Philadelphia University's 125th Commencement on May 17, 2009 in recognition of his accomplishments and years of dedication and service.
Known as "shot Doctor" because of his ability to teach basketball shot-making through unforgettable clinics held thousands of times during his career.
In one such clinic, he parked his car, entered onto the court and without any warmup, hit 25 in a row from the top of the key.
On August 12, 2011, Magee was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
Magee, an Irish American, played his high school basketball at Philadelphia's famed West Catholic High, where his teammates included former Philadelphia 76ers head coach Jim Lynam and former St. Joseph's coach Jim Boyle.
