Jerod Haase

On March 25, 2016, Haase was named head coach at Stanford University, replacing Johnny Dawkins. In the 2017-18 season, Haase's second as head coach, he led Stanford to 11 conference wins, the most by the Cardinal since 2008.

Haase managed to get UAB back to the big dance in his third year in Birmingham. The Blazers, a 14 seed, upset third-seeded Iowa State in the 2015 NCAA Tournament before losing to UCLA in the round of 32.

On March 26, 2012, Haase was named head coach at UAB.

Haase married Mindy Meidinger in 1999. In 2006 they had a son, Gavin; in 2009 another son, Garrett; and in 2012 a daughter, Gabrielle.

Haase arrived at Kansas and contributed immediately. During his sophomore season he was named the Big Eight newcomer of the year and a second team all-conference selection. He also led the Jayhawks in scoring with 15.0 points per game. In Haase's junior year he scored his career best 30 points against the Temple Owls. He was also named to the Big Eight all defensive team that year. The Jayhawks went 34–2 in the 1996–97 season, Haase's final year. He was named a co-captain and was in the starting lineup with Jacque Vaughn, Scot Pollard, Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce. Haase averaged 12.0 points per game his senior year and was named a Wooden and Naismith award finalist despite playing several games with a broken wrist. Haase's Kansas career came to an end on March 21, 1997, when Kansas lost to the Arizona Wildcats in the NCAA tournament. He started 99 of 101 games with the Jayhawks and his record in three years with the Jayhawks was 89–13. The Jayhawks also won three consecutive conference titles with Haase. The Jayhawks were ranked anywhere from fifth to first in the rankings during Haase's three years, and were named one of the favorites to win the 1996–97 national championship.

After Haase's senior season he co-wrote a book entitled Floor Burns with author Mark Horvath. The book describes the 1996–1997 season when the Jayhawks were ranked number one for 15 consecutive weeks but lost to Arizona in the NCAA Tournament. Haase then had a brief career playing professional basketball in Macedonia. When his short career in Macedonia ended he decided to self-publish his book Floor Burns and revisit towns around Kansas giving instructional basketball camps. Haase visited around 40 towns and conducted over 100 basketball camps. He then decided to turn his focus to coaching.

Haase attended the University of California, Berkeley to play during the 1993 season. Haase moved into the starting lineup and averaged 12 points and three assists through the first ten games for the California Golden Bears. During his freshman season at Cal, after a game against USC, Haase got a phone call from his mother saying that she took his father, to the hospital because of an infection near his ankle. Gary Haase went into shock while in the hospital and died right before Haase played a game against UCLA. Later in his freshman season at Cal, his coach Lou Campanelli was fired and interim (and later permanent) coach Todd Bozeman was brought in. Haase was benched and the Bears finished the regular season winning 9 of their last 10 games to reach the NCAA Tournament. Haase scored thirteen points in California's upset of powerhouse Duke in the second round. After the season ended, Haase transferred from California to the University of Kansas.
