His 1,088 wins during his 48 seasons at McKendree University of Lebanon, Illinois, are the most by any men's basketball coach at a four-year college or university in the United States (albeit he has coached at the NAIA level until the 2012-2013 season when McKendree transitioned to NCAA Division II〔http://www.mckbearcats.com/coaches.aspx?rc=627&path=mbball〕). The only other four coaches at a four-year school with 1,000 or more wins are Pat Summitt, Danny Miles, Mike Krzyzewski, and Herb Magee. In the junior college (two-year) ranks, Gene Bess of Three Rivers Community College had 1,169 wins entering the 2013-14 season. On March 7, 2012, Statham was named as one of the coaches on the NAIA 75th Anniversary All-Star Team.〔http://www.naia.org/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=27900&ATCLID=205389815〕 ==Early years== Statham was born on May 29, 1937 in Brookport, Illinois.

I was raised so that reputation is so important, the family name, strength, honesty, trustworthiness, respectfulness, ambition."〔Dodd〕 Statham graduated with a bachelor's degree from McKendree College in 1960. He then enrolled at the University of Illinois, where he served as a graduate assistant for the men's basketball and track teams.
