"Only Rock With Real Ones." - A Message from Corey

Brent Wrapp is stepping down after 13 unforgettable years with Cal State Bakersfield basketball—first as a record-setting player who led the team to its first NCAA Tournament and NIT Final Four, then as a coach who helped build a winning culture and developed countless All-Conference athletes. From Director of Basketball Operations to Assistant Coach, Wrapp’s impact spanned the court and the classroom, leaving behind a legacy of grit, loyalty, and unforgettable bonds. Both Wrapp and Head Coach Todd Lee praised his dedication, with Lee calling him a true Roadrunner for life. His departure marks the end of an era, but his story will forever be woven into CSUB’s basketball history.

Kenny Warren, Cal State Bakersfield’s basketball legend with two national titles and an undefeated season, stole the spotlight at the ESPYs when host Marcello Hernández called him his “OG in comedy.” After retiring from hoops, Warren became a Harlem barber and later a stand-up comic, mentoring rising talent—including Hernández, who got his first five-minute stage time from Warren in exchange for selling tickets. It wasn’t about awards, but about legacy: Warren’s journey from court to comedy, and his enduring impact on those he’s lifted along the way.
