Haase suffering the curse of being a double Cal trader.
Walton said on the telecast that Haase went to high school at Lake Tahoe and from there went to Kansas, overlooking his time at Cal.
On the same telecast, did you catch the clip of Haase's tirade, where he ripped his players upside and down, to get them to play harder? He told them they had to "embrace adversity". Some of them may not have even known what he was talking about. Walton loved it, but if I had been a player sitting on his bench, I think I'd have rolled my eyes and entered the transfer portal ASAP, a la Justice Sueing. Who could play for a guy who acts like this? This kind of thing did not used to be tolerated at Stanford. I know he had a 20-win season, but I don't think he will last long on the farm if he keeps this up.
