Former Gopher coach & U grad Niko Medved gets Conf COY & becomes a Dad in same day
per a big profile on CBS on the former Gopher coach:
No person in college basketball started off March better than Furman’s Niko Medved. The fourth-year Paladins coach experienced something powerful Wednesday morning, an event he’d never gone through before.
He’s now, at 43, a father.
At 5:30 in the morning, Alexa Ann Medved came into the world, weighing 7 pounds, 3 ounces. Biggest win Medved’s ever experienced.
“It’s like this: you can’t really describe a life force kind of thing and something that’s yours,” Medved told CBS Sports. “You can’t really describe like an instant connection that you feel. You look at it, and it’s real, and this instant connection you feel with this baby and you don’t really know why or how.”
As Medved was holding Aly around 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, and immediately taking to fatherhood, he got a call from one of his assistants. It was a message of congratulations. Not just about the baby -- but because he won Coach of the Year in the league.
