Mark Campbell, HC for Sacramento State WBB Program, is probably well known to many of us. You can read his BIO on the Sacramento State WBB site.
He was an Assitant Coach at St. Mary's Moraga and Pepperdine Men's Basketball Programs. St. Mary's Men's Program has seen much success under HC Randy Bennett. They beat Gonzaga Saturday night in Moraga with a huge crowd! Granted, Gonzaga isn't number one in the country this season, but a great win for the Gaels.

Mark helped turn around the Oregon State WBB Program into a formidable opponent. He joined the coaching staff at Oregon, and we know what happened there! He was key in recruiting Sabrina Inescu, and her WNBA bound teammates. He is known as an excellent recruiter. During Oregon's run to the Final Four, Mark could be seen drawing up plays during timeouts. From what I can tell, his defensive coaching was instrumental in Oregon's most sucessful seasons. He recruited the number one recruiting class of 2020. Since he left Oregon, at least two of the top players have transferred back to their home state universities.

This is his second year at Sacramento State, turning it's WBB Program into a winner.!! They are 16-6 so far, and competitive in the Big Sky Conference. I am sure he would be a successful Power-5 HC. He probably will not be at Sac State very long! From what I know he has a great reputation as a person and coach. His coaching credentials will take him far.

I don't know if he prefers to coach a Women's team, but certainly could be a HC for a Men's Basketball Team as well.

Just thinking, A Winner In Our Midst!!!!!

Sacramento State WBB won The Big Sky Tournament!

They are going to the NCAA Women's Tournament!

This is Mark Campbell's second year as HC.......All agree he is an excellent coach....

He also coached in men's programs, and helped make Oregon State and Oregon's women's teams into Winning Programs....

He is well respected in the coaching ranks and a fantastic Recruiter.....

Wake Up Cal!!!

Mike Montgomery wrote a recent article saying a coaching change for Cal's Men's Program would not make a difference due to Academic Requirements set by the University, plus NIL. I hope he is wrong, and Cal can have winning Basketball and Football programs. Of course, who knows what will become of the Pac-12......I haven't read any positive articles detailing its fate very recently, including this past week.

I welcome all comments and perspectives.........

In the NCAA Tournament Sac State lost to UCLA 67-45. UCLA got 20 more shots from 15 more rebounds and 6 fewer turnovers.

Sac State has 4 players who average 30 minutes or more: a 5'6" guard, a 6'5" center, and two 6'2" guards. They have 4 international players, 3 out-of-state players, none from SoCal, and 5 of the players are transfers.

Against UCLA the center had 16 points (on 8 of 12) and 10 rebounds, way more than any of our posts got. The small guard got her season averages in rebounds (6) and assists (5) but shot a miserable 3 for 19.

The entire staff have worked or played for University of Oregon. Maybe that's their dream job?
