South Dakota head coach Ed Meierkort's contract will not be renewed, athletic director David Sayler announced on Tuesday.
I felt it was important for the program to have a new direction in leadership
He was a good coach, maybe UND can snatch him up as an assistant.

:shock:

Yeah, I wouldn't say he was fired... more like let go.

South Dakota schools can only give out one year contracts, so he was basically fired.

No.

Whenever a report says a guy is fired, this is what they mean the vast majority of the time.


Surprised at this. The Coyotes were in the top-25 for about half of the season.

What? Is that true?

Who would want to coach under those stipulations?

The USD players trashed the locker room after the USD-UND game, so I can't wait to see the face of the USD AD when UND sends them the bill. I wonder if the firing was related to that.
