College Basketball

Drew Timme has been one of the most iconic and impactful players in College Basketball over the past few seasons. Following the upset of his Gonzaga Bulldogs in the NCAA Tournament this past March, many thought he would move on to the NBA.

Few coaches achieve a turnaround like the Iowa State Cyclones had this past season in their entire career, much less their first year. Former South Dakota State Head Coach and current Cyclone Head Coach T.J. Otzelberger has now been rewarded for that progress with a raise and a contract extension.

On Wednesday, the USF men's basketball program announced that former star Drew Guebert would be joining the staff as an assistant.

That reputation is going to continue to grow in the right direction as they made another big announcement on Tuesday.

Former Iowa State guard Tyrese Hunter, the nation's top available transfer, announced his commitment to Texas on Friday.

Both the Men's and Women's Basketball teams at USD experienced coaching changes this offseason, and on Tuesday, the University announced that there will be a new director of operations for Men's Basketball as well.

The transfer portal continues to distribute top-tier talent looking for a new home. On Tuesday morning, former South Dakota State basketball player Baylor Scheierman announced his commitment to a new school after a stellar career in Brookings.

Now, the Coyotes will be looking to build on that success and they just landed a big name in the transfer portal.

For a long time, basketball fans in the state of South Dakota have been able to watch Noah Freidel get buckets and buckets and more buckets.

Coach Karius and USD have announced the most recent hire that staff this week.
