UND Football Team Appoints New Offensive Coordinator
In a recent significant development, the football team at the University of North Dakota (UND) has been pleased to announce the appointment of Isaac Fruechte, a well-versed coach and ex-NFL player, as its new offensive coordinator. This move follows after a short period where Jake Landry, a Grand Forks native, took up the position at UND and then chose North Dakota State. The team’s initial restructure began with Danny Freund, the previous offensive coordinator, heading to South Dakota State, the champion of the national championship twice in succession.
Fruechte’s Rich History in Coaching
With an impressive coaching background, including stints at Wisconsin-La Crosse, Northern Iowa, Northern State, and most recently Winona State, the 32-year-old Fruechte now brings this experience to UND. Throughout his coaching career, he has combined his vast knowledge, passion, and dynamism to inspire and influence many teams.

As a past wide receiver for the Minnesota Gophers, as well as time spent in the practice squads of both the Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings, these experiences add another valuable dimension to his coaching.

As the team sets their sights on the commencement of their spring football season at February’s end, the sense of excitement is apparent. Undoubtedly, UND’s Head Coach, Bubba Schweigert, demonstrated his enthusiasm for this new appointment, recognizing that Fruechte’s experience and energy will bring incredible value to the Fighting Hawks. new era under Fruechte’s direction will truly be defined in their performance in the coming seasons, which will be keenly observed by all.
