Ryan Horn is the new strength and conditioning coordinator at Wichita State. He will oversee the department and work with men's basketball.

We discuss his path from football fullback to his profession, one that includes a chat at a Kentucky football camp, a talk with his dad and injuries. He discusses his love language with athletes, how he plans to coach them with relentless positivity and high expectations and how building relationships is the most important part of his job. He reveals his favorite movie and the importance of selecting the musical playlist for workouts.

Horn comes to Wichita State after almost two years as special operations strength and conditioning specialist at KBR, a science, technology and engineering company. Before that, he spent six years at Wake Forest as director of athletic performance at Wake Forest and was also at Tulsa, VCU, Liberty and Robert Morris. He has degrees from Shepherd University in West Virginia and VCU.
