Mixed feelings about this. Selfishly, you hate to see him leave because he’s a great coach. But there’s excitement because he deserves the opportunity. I really enjoyed watching him lead the RBs at ISU. This guy is on the rise. Best wishes @CoachSamOjuri22!
Another former Bison is back with the Herd. Please welcome our new running backs coach, 𝗦𝗮𝗺 𝗢𝗷𝘂𝗿𝗶! 🤘 🗒️

@IWUhoopscom @IWUBasketball @Wheaton_Thunder @CCIW_Athletics @Pantagraph Simich is one of the best stories in Titan lore. Relatively unknown who made himself into an All-American. Cerebral blue collar guy who was the piece Dennie needed to elevate his program to elite national status. Chris was so humble, always praising teammates—a key Titan trait!

@ISU_mcwilli @eatgreedy_tae I think @eatgreedy_tae needs to be an honorary assistant coach for the playoffs. Master motivator!
