Yes I would love them back and also excited about the coaching staff they could assemble.ducky23 said:
Gates with Theo would be like a wet dream

I would put Golden at the top of my list. Taking a leap of faith on a young up and comer seems like a good strategy for Cal these days.
Legans and Gates seem to fit that bill as well, but Travis may be showing his ceiling at Montana. If he were killing it there, I'd be more enthusiastic (but so would every other team).
As for the Kicker, I spent a lot of time with him, when I was coaching youth bball and he was on Braun's staff. I know he can coach and recruit. Other than his taint from UA (two issues), he seems ideal, but his sights may be higher than Cal - just sayin'

I like the list so far. USF under Golden is really punching above their weight. Great sign, great energy. Plus, the name works well for Cal marketing ;-)
What's turned around, because to a certain extent he has done it already. We are a tough out at home. We are an auto W for decent teams outside of Haas. And this may be the best it will get before the seniors leave. How much more do you expect him to turn it around?Big C said:
Golden: Great idea in name alone! I'd want to really kick the tires though
Gates: Yes. It was no, until he proved himself as a HC
Legans: Yes, maybe
DeCuire: Yes before. Now I'm wondering if he would bother applying for the 3rd time. A man has his pride.
Kicker: Yes. I feel like he would throw everything he has into the program and get things done, like the practice facility, recruiting and activating the fan base
Fox: I hope he wins a lot of games the rest of this season. I am pulling for our current coach to do well! If he can still get things turned around, that is my first choice.

DeCuire is probably not going to make a third try after the way the AD did him last time and he is from Seattle...could be looking at UW job if it opens....
Somebody clue me in. What is Fox' current contract and is there a buyout? If there is any kind of buyout I don't think there's any way he gets canned. Just don't see administration doing that at this point.Big C said:KoreAmBear said:What's turned around, because to a certain extent he has. We are a tough out at home. We are an auto W on the road.

Honestly, not much. Depending on how we finish the year, I could see maybe pulling the plug in March. But if we get close to, say 15 wins, maybe he gets another year (where he would have to demonstrate continued progress, at least in recruiting, but preferably also W/L).
I feel like I'll know it when the time comes. The point is, he's our guy right now and we're in mid-season and so I'm not throwing in the towel on him. That's why I included him on the list: Right in the middle of the season, only 2 weeks after people here were showering him with compliments, I sorta felt like I needed to take a shower, discussing his replacement. (But I did it anyway, what with this being a fan site and his results-to-date and all... )
How certain are we that JK will again use a "search firm"......or not?socaltownie said:

The Kicker seems to be struggling right now at UCSB. 7-7
Travis is doing "OK" - 4-2 in the big sky, 11.-6 overall
Who else should we put on the list?

You can bet the farm that he will again use a search firm.bearup said:How certain are we that JK will again use a "search firm"......or not?socaltownie said:

Krystkowiak if you are looking for "experience."
I'd put feelers out to Kidd.

I feel like if he had kicked anyone else, maybe I could've forgiven him. But not Jorge.

Coach Larry K would be great
PtownBear1 said:
Yeah, I wouldn't want Larry K either. I mean obviously I'd take him over Fox, but would much rather have an up-and-comer with some fresh hype rather than a rethread.

And he should. He doesn't know what the heck he's doing.
