Sjs offense looked ok. Attacking, not settling. Good defense .


Go Bears!

They played with some discipline, good defense. The offense didn't seem particularly creative and I really hope we get a coach who plays a faster paced game with motion and shooters.

first time I heard Tim Miles being one of two candidates I just assumed it was a random rumor given SJS is close by

but ESPN radio just said that Georgetown coach, and Cal coach were fired today, and said the front runner for the Cal job is Tim Miles

Miles might have had success at smaller schools decades ago, but everything changed since then, and his Nebraska results were poor.

It would be a nightmare if Cal goes with Miles

I don't know where they get this "front runner" crap; they must make it up.

Your "buddy" Pasternack would have to be the clear front runner to replace Fox.

If they go with Miles, I think I'm done. Why bother caring when the university certainly doesn't.

Maybe SJSU pays Miles to make him stay. At this point in his career, maybe Miles isn't chasing the next gig anymore.

IMHO, Miles is NOT the answer. Get creative CAL! Think up and coming! Younger! Relate better and recruit better. Yes, easy for me to say, but Miles is not the answer. Pasternak maybe short-term, he definitely gets it, but I think there is a better coaching choice. Who that is, I don't know.

GO BEARS!!

Um, SJSU finished 5th out of 11 in the mighty MW and needed overtime to beat 4th place Nevada. That might be better than expected for SJSU but IMHO we could do a lot better.

They win close games. What a concept.

This. The league is VERY much a 1.5 team this year and SJSU got pretty much blow out by SDSU the one time (so far) they have faced them. I just am NOT impressed by the body of work.

Morever, and this I think is REALLY key and I hope being pointed out to JK - the record this year COuld (maybe not but could) be distorted by SJSU having a senior stud point guard who wasn't recruited by Miles but stuck it out through the change. He reminds me a lot of Jorge - tough kid who plays with a big chip on shoulder from being overlooked. It just isn't clear a coach is responsible for that and if you hire Miles and he regresses to Nebraska levels then it really is a case of "well that was pretty obvious it was going to happen")

Against mediocre teams. They're 90 in KenPom and that's mostly because they have Omari Moore, who is a senior and not a Miles recruit. They play slow, which I'd hate to see again at Cal. They won all of 3 games this year against top 50 teams according to KenPom.

I really don't want Miles. I think we can do way better. The more we discuss the criteria, I just want a coach that will bring excitement back to the program. Let's take a chance on a young, charismatic coach with California ties.

It's crazy to me that Knowlton has this guy at the top of his list. He's Mark Fox 2.0

Miles, Fox and Knowlton go way back, though. I bet he interviews real well.
