Danny Freund Returns to UND as the QB Whisperer for Jerry Kaminski
In the 2026 season, Danny Freund is back at North Dakota as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, and that matters because he already knows how to build an offense around his quarterback room—especially Jerry Kaminski, whom he recruited and has publicly praised for growth, leadership, and football IQ. The biggest differentiator here is continuity: Freund’s long UND history and his work at South Dakota State and Washington State give him a modern, polished offensive lens without losing the program’s identity. If you want a coach who blends development, trust, and system fit, this is a strong match.
