Stanford has hired former UNC assistant coach Jerod Haase as their head coach.
“Stanford University is a world-class institution which represents excellence across the board,” said Haase in a statement released by Stanford. “We will compete for championships by doing it the right way and graduating young men who will go on to accomplish great things in the world.”
Haase left Chapel Hill in 2012 to take over as the head coach at the University of Alabama-Birmingham.
UAB made it to the NCAA Tournament in 2015, shocking No. 3 seed Iowa State, 60-59, in the second round for the Blazers’ first NCAA victory since 2005.
He finished the 2015-16 season with a 26-7 record, losing in the first round of the NIT to BYU.
Haase played for UNC head coach Roy Williams for three years when Williams was at Kansas.
He eventually joined Williams’ staff and follow him to Chapel Hill before accepting the job at UAB.
Stanford finished 15-15 this season.
