Again, Chaves wasn’t talking to them about individual candidates (although I am sure he talked to Glas about Randall). He talked to them because they both had accomplished careers at UND and were well respected on and off the court. Getting their thoughts on various topics certainly can’t hurt and will likely give Chaves a better feel as to the attributes a coach should have to be successful at UND.

Thanks for your note. I am also glad your son chose UND and that you enjoyed your time in GF, I hope Steve Jr. did as well.

I agree - I wonder if it was more than grades. If the staff knew that grades might cause him to be dismissed, I wouldn't have thought he would have gotten so much playing time in spring ball.

GRAND FORKS - University of North Dakota freshman running back Otis Weah is off of the football team and his return to the roster is unknown. The former Moorhead Spud has been ruled academically ineligible according to two sources with direct knowledge of the situation. Weah's status at the university is in doubt because of his academic standing. Weah had a tremendous spring for the Fighting Hawks and was being looked at as a potential feature back for UND for this upcoming season.. He played in four games in 2018, carrying the ball five times for 28 yards and scoring one touchdown. The four games was the maximum for a player to play in to maintain a redshirt and have four years of eligibility.

What is your point?

I don't disagree with your statement but they weren't talking about BB culture as it relates to fan interest nationally, they were talking about what it takes to win in BB at UND. That includes recruiting kids whose parents will drive by many other Summit League schools to get to Grand Forks or the kid from a warm climate who has never been to ND. It includes scheduling, playing an entertaining/exciting type of ball, being involved and respected within the community, etc.

Telephone interviews are taking place - it is going to be a tough decision for Chaves. Lots of great candidates. Chaves continues to impress me - he recently spent some time with Gunther and on the phone with Glas trying to learn more about the UND BB culture and what type of coach is needed to get the program back where it was.
