What is the head coaches annual salary? 

From the Herald:

The contract for new UND volleyball coach Jesse Tupac, who the school named as head coach Dec. 21, is a four-year deal starting at a base salary of $93,635.

The base salary grows annually, eventually reaching $102,500 in the fourth season.

The Tupac contract has 16 different incentives, including $1,000 for conference regular season championship and $2,000 for conference tournament championship. A conference coach of the year honor would also net $2,000.

The contract also has academic bonuses included, such as $2,000 for a semester cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 or better, as well as $2,000 for a team single-year Academic Progress Rate of 985 or better.

Plus you have to add wife’s salary: from open payroll:

University of North Dakota (UND) records show Kristen Hahn Tupac held one job between 2023 and 2024. One of the most recent records in 2024 lists a job of Asst Coach - Volleyball and a pay of $45,260.

I still think Tupac is a step above the later years of Pryor when one eye was out the door, and incredibly better than Tiffin. They’ve been in most sets this year. You have remember how low the program sank after the glory years. But I wouldn’t give Tupac a lifetime contract, or even an extension. The W-L record must be better next year or the leash is getting short.

I would agree as well.  They were doing well before conference started and their best freshman got hurt with a season ending injury.  Not that she would have made up for all these losses.  i think she would have been in the running for freshman of the year.  Looks like he has a really good recruiting class coming in for 2025.  I hope that we give them another year or two to see what they can do.  100% improvement over Tiffin.

UND volleyball in the five years prior to Chaves: 

125-51

UND volleyball since Chaves started:

57-138

 

What happened??

Hardee getting himself in trouble was pretty much where it all started.
Pryor rode what Hardee had built for a bit and ended up running it into the ground as he was trying to figure out how to get back to Texas.
Tiffin couldn't turn around the mess he inherited.

I do think the new staff has the connections and ability to get them back to where they were. Injuries were part of the problem this year but the depth still isn't where it needs to be.

Hardee has not been the coach since 2013. That is plenty of time to turn things around to at least be competitive in the league
