A lot of the former UCLA players were campaigning for former-Bruin Earl Watson, who has some NBA head coaching experience.At what point do you say screw it and invite Alford back? Or isn't there some successful alum you might give a try ala Penny Hardaway?
Luke Walton after he gets canned by the Lakers?
Latest on the rumor mill: UCLA looking to talk to Bennett after tonight's game.
Read it in the St Paul Pioneer Press yesterday.
Why even waste time. Bennett isn't leaving VA for UCLA. He is in a better conference, coming off a possible national championship. What is wrong with the UCLA athletic director. It's ridiculous.
I know what you're saying, but the same was true for Johnny Orr.
All depends on the money for some coaches. Bennett and Few may not be in that category, however.
Indeed. Theyre not getting him unless they dump a shitload of money at him, but there's no indication UCLA is willing to spend that freely or they'd already have their coach.Why even waste time. Bennett isn't leaving VA for UCLA. He is in a better conference, coming off a possible national championship. What is wrong with the UCLA athletic director. It's ridiculous.
Yeah I'd be all about living in LA making that kind of money.I have no desire to live in Cali, but I mean, I'll take the UCLA gig. I'll even do it for a mill a year.
UCLA targeting Rick Barnes. $5M buyout at Tennessee. UCLA will pay Barnes $5M per year, not including bonuses/incentives. He turns 65 in July.
