HEAD COACH HEAD COACH BRIAN JONES ON... His coaching style: “We want to build our foundation on four pillars: Out-Work, Out-Think, Do It Together and Have Fun. We want to out-work you on the floor, out think you, play unselfishly and have a lot of fun playing the game of basketball.” The importance of family: “We really put a big emphasis on family. I don’t want our relationship with the players just to be primarily on basketball. I want our relationship to extend 30-plus years to where they can come back to campus and feel like they never left. I have two small children. I want our players to have an ongoing relationship with my wife and kids. The bond we have will be critical to our success on the floor. We will play in many hostile environments and that bond will be what gets us over the top.” The importance of respect: “I truly feel you have to respect all those around you. There are so many people on campus, in the community that are trying to help. I feel the moment you stop listening to your elders or start playing against the name on the front of the jersey, you are setting yourself up to fail or get beat.” The importance of tradition: “Tradition never graduates. Tradition is what is allowing us to make this transition to Division I, so it is very important. I feel it is our duty to carry that torch and continue to represent the university, community and the state at the highest level.” What it means for him to be at UND: “It has been a dream come true for me personally to be a part of a university that is one of the best in the country from an academic and athletic standpoint. With this being my first head coaching job, I’ve been blessed to be given this opportunity. We look forward to establishing ourselves in the community and making Grand Forks our home.” What makes UND and the program special: “The passion for this university is what makes it special. People are passionate about UND and Sioux athletics. They have an ownership in the university and athletic teams. This is what sets us apart from many other universities. UND basketball has had a long line of great coaches and players who have gone on to do many great things after their time here. That to me shows the life skills they’ve learned while at UND.” The importance of community and fan support: “We need involvement from the community and student body. We want the “Betty” to be known for being a difficult place to play in. Visiting teams should know when they step off the bus they are walking into an environment that will challenge them mentally and physically.” His recruiting philosophy: We feel it is important that we take care of home first—this being the state of North Dakota—and then branch out to bordering states or areas we where have relationships built. I truly believe it is our job to find talent but our players are the ones in charge of recruiting. They are around each other more often than the coaches are around them. If they feel the student-athlete would be a good fit into the university, community and program then it is a no-brainer that we want him to be the next member of the UND family.” The importance of building character: “It is our job as coaches to develop life skills. We must prepare our young men for life after basketball. They will be thrown in a lot of different scenarios that will challenge them during their tenure and we have to teach them how to make the most of it. We are all about doing the right job right all the time.” 8
