UND-FB-FAN Posted March 9 Posted March 9 1 hour ago, UND-FB-FAN said: UND men’s basketball is in a tough situation. Facilities and dollars for staff (and players now with NIL) just aren’t there for this to be an attractive job. With that said, you still need to look at whether or not you can improve coaching to better compensate for the deficiencies, some of which you can’t control (e.g., location). I think it is time to part ways with Sather, especially since UND will likely be parting ways (unintentionally) with Eaglestaff also. Time to see what a new coach can do for UND MBB. Now, will UND leadership actually do their job and make the move? Probably not - I have little faith, despite how well the transition to Coach Schmidt for football has gone thus far. Probably more appropriate in this thread. Quote

He is averaging 11 minutes less per game . Shooting 13% from 3. Averaging 3 points a game down 12 from und. Not sure that gets a A. Unless you mean A for getting a bag. Then yes he gets a A. And if you were trying to be funny with sewing that was a miss. Quote

Omot taking his sewing class pass fail. Quote

NewUndFan Posted March 10 Posted March 10 Anyone have a guess how long we will have to wait for Chaves to make a decision about our coaches ? Quote

He has already made the decision. He's already had to explain to Armacost he had to pay Bubba out by creating a job for him. There is no way they can afford to pay out basketball and hockey coaches too. Plus he probably thinks this was a successful season so watch for a 5 year extension. Until Chaves goes UND does not improve it is that simple. Quote

Until Chaves goes UND does not improve it is that simple. I agree that UND isn’t going to buy out 3 coaches. Chaves doesn’t think we have had a successful hockey season unless we are in the final four, but Confrrence Championships and Tournament wins are part of the evaluation. If someone steps up with a blank check that changes things. We can’t afford $600,000 to $1,000,000 buyouts when we have to navigate NIL and the portal. I’m not commenting on who should stay or who should go but I will take that bet regarding nothing will improve as long as Chaves is here. Quote

By that metric we haven't had a successful season for nine years. Maybe next season will be the year Berry figures it all out. And Sather. And Mal. And Tupac. 5 1 Quote

Going to Chaves or Andy demanding change usually doesn’t work well. No one likes complainers. Try going is with your checkbook open and ask what they think of the state of the program. Ask what is working, what isn’t, and express your frustrations. Ask them what is frustrating them. Ask them what their vision is for the future of the program and express your ideas. Then if you are able open your check book and contribute what you can. If that isn’t something you can afford right now , ask how you can help. It may be a more effective way to move our programs forward. Just my opinion. 1 Quote

And Sather. And Mal. And Tupac. The success or failure of our programs doesn’t affect me at all. For the sake of those who have “skin in the game” I feel bad for them when they struggle and sad for them when they lose. I still like to watch our teams and have gone to games when they were terrible and when they have been national champs. Doesn’t make me a national champ nor a failure either way. Quote
Popular Post fightingsioux4life Posted March 10 Popular Post Posted March 10 So that's it? Every coach is untouchable and has a de facto lifetime contract? Cripes, this athletic department has sunk into the mud of mediocrity and some people on here are actually okay with that. It truly is sad. 6 Quote
Popular Post forksandspoons Posted March 10 Popular Post Posted March 10 Gotta think there’s a coach out there willing to coach UND for Sather’s salary that can get them above a 35% D1 win percentage in six years 4 1 Quote

petey23 Posted March 10 Posted March 10 I believe Sather, Mallory , and Berry are all in the final years of their contracts for the 25-26 season and I cannot think of one valid reason that any of them would be extended at this time unfortunately. 4 Quote
