UAB finished the year overall with three of those wins coming against teams that participated in the 2014 NCAA Tournament. Of UAB s 18 victories last season, perhaps none were more impressive than the Blazers win against perennial power and 16th-ranked North Carolina at Bartow Arena on Dec. 1, 2013.The win against UNC marked the Blazers first victory against a ranked opponent since 2009 and gave UAB its first win against the Tar Heels in four tries. The season also saw the emergence of guard Chad Frazier, who averaged 17.7 points per game and scored 20 points or more 10 times on his way to being named the 2014 Conference USA Newcomer of the Year. During his first year with the Blazers in , UAB went 6-3 in its last nine regular season Conference USA games, before the No. 7 seeded Blazers knocked off No.10 seed SMU in the first round of the 2013 C-USA Tournament. Before coming to Birmingham, Haase played for Roy Williams at Kansas and spent 13 years on Williams staff with the Jayhawks and Tar Heels. He helped North Carolina to national championships in 2005 and Known as a top recruiter, he has also served as the head coach for the junior varsity team five times in his nine-year UNC tenure. I am elated for both Jerod and UAB. This will be a great marriage. He is one of the finest young men I have ever known. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind he is going to be a great head coach. The people at UAB can count on the fact that Jerod will spend every single day continuing to build a great program there. He has tremendous work ethic and enthusiasm and will bring imagination to the basketball staff and program. He is a tireless worker and will have a great deal of passion for not only the basketball program, but the entire university community. - Roy Williams, North Carolina Head Coach Coach Jerod Haase is a great match for UAB. His experience at UNC highlighted his dedication to college student athletes. He is honest and upfront with players, and every player he coaches will improve on and off the court. He is a hard worker, always well-prepared. UAB will be proud of the program he will establish. - Hubert Davis, Former ESPN Analyst (Current UNC Assistant Coach) I am a big beleiver in Jerod Haase. He is an excellent basketball mind, and a terrific young coach that has a great understanding of the game, can X and O with anyone, and works his tail off. Jerod has a fabulous demeanor on the floor, and is an incredibly intense competitor. As fine of a coach as he is, he s an even better person. UAB hit a home run with Haase. - Jay Bilas, ESPN What They Are Saying A 1997 Kansas graduate in business administration, Haase s first job came at his alma mater as the Director of Basketball Operations from During that time, the Jayhawks reached the 2002 Final Four and the national championship game in When Williams was named head coach at North Carolina prior to the season, he brought Haase with him as an assistant coach and director of operations, a title he held from It was a unique position that rotated from assistant coach to director of operations every other year. Haase has served exclusively as an assistant coach since the season. A native of South Lake Tahoe, Calif., Haase attended the University of California in and then transferred to Kansas. He helped lead the Jayhawks to three consecutive conference titles and finished his career ranked in the top 10 among school leaders in assists, three-point field goals and steals. He started 99 of 101 games at Kansas and scored 1,264 points, averaging 12.5 per game and reaching double figures 74 times. While at KU, Haase was a candidate for the Naismith and Wooden Awards. As a senior in , Haase started with Jacque Vaughn, Scot Pollard, Paul Pierce and Raef LaFrentz as Kansas finished with a 34-2 record. He averaged 12.0 points per game despite playing with a broken wrist. As a sophomore in , he scored 15.0 points a game, was named the Big Eight Conference Newcomer of the Year and also was tabbed a second-team all-conference selection. Haase co-wrote Floor Burns, detailing the KU season, which sold more than 30,000 copies. Floor burns are a statistic the Kansas stat crew created in honor of Haase, who had 165 of them as a junior. He has also produced a basketball instructional video. Born April 1, 1974, Haase is one of five brothers and sisters to play intercollegiate sports. He is married to the former Mindy Meidinger of Lenexa, Kan. The couple has two sons, Gavin (7) and Garrett (4), and a daughter, Gabrielle (2). Jerod Haase has been nothing but good to me while I ve been a member of the North Carolina basketball family. He is one of those guys who is fun to be around because he can relate to the players. Anytime guys needed anything or had a question about anything, they could always go to coach Haase because he is so easy to talk to. I am very happy for him. He is an awesome guy and UAB made a very good choice. - Marvin Williams, Utah Jazz (Former UNC player who played under coach Haase) Jerod Haase is an amazing individual first and foremost. I think the UAB community and city of Birmingham will enjoy him thoroughly. He was a great backcourt mate of mine while we were at Kansas. It was a real pleasure to play alongside him and it was great to know that I could depend on him. UAB fans are going to embrace him without a doubt. He brings an excitement and a level of commitment that will make him a special head coach. - Jacque Vaughn Orlando Magic Head Coach (former Kansas teammate) I consider Jerod to be one of the brightest young minds in the game of basketball. He s a relentless worker and extremely positive. He knows how to win and how to build a program. Jerod is a complete professional and a high quality person from an integrity and ethical standpoint. - Chris Grant Cleveland Cavaliers General Manager (high school teammate of Jerod Haase)
