Men's Basketball Head Coach Jerod Haase Press Conference
I am going to get working to put a staff together, I am going to get working to make sure we have the best roster possible. I am going to work in every way to make sure we build this thing into a championship-level program. There is a lot of work to be done. Again, college athletics has changed. But, I also believe that the fundamentals of relationships, player development, education have not changed and as long as I am the coach they are not going to change and I am going to rely on those to build a culture we want. At the end of the day, I am going do everything I possibly can to make the community proud with the basketball product, to win as many games as we possibly can. I am extremely honored and humbled to be your 12th basketball coach.
