Mal got the interim coach for that year. Won 2 games. They opened the position up after the season. Narrowed it to 4 finalists . Then Chaves came out and said taking interim title off Mal making her the head coach. If her job interview was coaching that team to 2 wins should have been fired. Now look at the dumpster fire we have.

Yes I believe he was from the south also. There was 4 candidates one being Mal. The other two females who I also thought would be better then Mal. When they announced the top 2 I thought well he got it and giving some credit to Mal as a alum and assistant to keep her as an assistant. Boy was I wrong. Never thought in a million years and only 2 wins the previous year would she get the job.

Look what happened to NDSU with bad coaching hires. They made a great hire in coach Jory. They went against the grain and hired a male outsider. When Mal was hired over the other guy that was in the final two with her I couldn't believe it. He had way more credentials and Mal came off a horrible year as intern coach.... but being a und grad and female gave it to her... great choice Chaves. AND im NOT saying females can't coach !!! Im saying hire the best person male OR female !!

I'd have kept Bledsoe connections in the cities over motherwell in Michigan. Those have not panned out at all.

I didnt see the offer. Who was it and where do they play ?

We will have to see who is right in the future about this pick. I feel he is under sized and to slow for division 1. He would be a great player for UMary

speculation and wishing.

Yeah I don't think he is a division 1 player. Watching him last year in the class A tournament i wasn't impressed. Erickson either but his height has some upside

Coach said in the press conference they have a couple girls committed but not signed yet so she couldn't say anything. I'll be curious who they bring in.

I am saying Tyree is not going to make the same mistake transferring again and staying here next year. I also believe Treyson is chasing his uncles record and legacy. Money wont drag him away. Amar and King have a home here and wont leave. The only I think is on the fence is BJ. I am hoping a scholarship opens up with Doppler leaving.

I hope he can get his grades up. He would have been a HUGE improvement over Brady. Long athletic good defender.

I think we could use another rebounder. Doesn't mean bj is gone yet.... I hope

I've been saying this all year. This year has to be the most pathetic year I've seen at UND as far as band , cheerleaders, school spirit and student engagement. Not to mention the horrible changes the Betty made during the off season that were to have made a better experience. Whoevers idea it was needs to be fired. So disappointed in the university. I wonder what Andy thinks about it ?

Chaves will see contract extension with that record!

I'm so glad I don't have to see TT in a uniform again !

Great coaching but I get jumped on when I said it before. Stop running your offense with the lead. Stop playing what got you the lead. Where is SD guy and the band to cheer on Sather again!??????

I'd take a chance on Sem! Just dunked over Ahneman !

Because I said I hope she doesn't waste her talent here ???? You criticize the coach and team too ! She is a great player and I don't have any confidence in our coach will surround her with good talent. Hasn't proved it yet. If she doesn't live in grand forks she wouldn't choose und. Some times you need to be realistic and not live in the clouds

Yeah I know but damn he is exciting to watch !

They are closed permanently

Hope she doesn't waste her talent here

Is Jeremiah Sem from North still on the table ? Watching this class AA tournament and he is athletic. Right now taking it to minot who only lost one game this year

She transferred there over Christmas break.

I heard that the tournament was already set for this year when the deal was made. They said expect next year to see different dates for the tournament. Its always been on Tuesday to fit in with ESPN to broadcast it along with the conference championships.

I just feel bad for the guys on this team. We have a really good fun team to watch and they cant even get some of respect other schools are giving their players and fans. I can see why recruiting here for basketball is so difficult. I just feel like from school, the Betty and the students have not given this team any respect or love. If They make the NCAA tournament it will be way more coverage for the school then any hockey championship would. The first four round got 5.41MM viewers, the first round teams got 8.4MM viewers. The hockey Championship game got 808,000.
