    NSU Wolves Basketball

    New coach, new thread. I’m excited for the Coach Wilber era to begin. Obviously, the press release is always going to be positive but there are some common themes in all of the comments. NSU and Coach Wilber know that he needs to bring a good energy and reconnect with one of the best D2 basketball communities in the country. After a couple miserable seasons, I look forward to seeing this program rebuilt to where it belongs.

    GO WOLVES!!!

    Wilber wasting no time as he has offered Marvin Richard III from Pine Ridge. Probably a long shot as he also has an offer from USD and is still only a Jr. But it’s good to see an NSU coach actually recruiting again.

      Seems like a very solid hire.

        Does Wilber hold the record for most (East River) South Dakota institutions one person is associated with?

        Augustana player
        USF assistant coach
        SDSU assistant coach
        DWU head coach

        ...and now Northern State head coach

          Energy, effort, enthusiasm, connect with people, strong work ethic, positive vibes, cares for people, i mean, if we don't win an NSIC title any time soon, bummer, but I'd take a coach like this keeping a close knit place like this for the long haul any day.

          I couldn't be happier with the person we hired to be our coach.

          And I mean it, winning is important, but Wachs had rough seasons, Ole had rough seasons, Meyer and Sather had a rough start, but they all fit that mold of building a future and not selling a place short. At D1 that means nothing, at this level, for this school, that means EVERYTHING.

            From what was reported a year ago, his family stayed in Mitchell while Matt went to Phoenix to be on the Mercury coaching staff. So from that standpoint, I think this move makes a ton of sense for him personally. His wife is a former Augustana Viking as well and in the Augie Hall of Fame for her own volleyball successes. She is still the DWU volleyball coach.

                Not really surprising, but it is the first signing I have seen for the 25-26 season. The NorthStar Athletic Association Freshman of the Year has committed to play at Northern next season. Lane Tietz from Dakota State, and from Groton High School (20 minutes from Aberdeen) will be playing in Aberdeen. I also see that the Dakota Wesleyan coach that replaced Wilber has left after one season in Mitchell. I would not be surprised at all to see some DWU players in Wolves uniforms next season. Hopefully Wilber is able to get some players above the NAIA level as well...

                  Wolves are getting Josh Book, a transfer from Missouri Western.
