Guest Report post Posted April 4, 2008 This can be for all coaching discussion, if you please. Or not. Anyhow, I pulled up something that's sure to make Bored happy. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=3329152 Former Stanford and Golden State Warriors coach Mike Montgomery has agreed in principle to replace Ben Braun at rival California, according to a source with knowledge of the negotiations. Braun was fired as coach last Wednesday after 12 years at Cal. Montgomery led Stanford to the 1998 Final Four and helped resurrect the Cardinal into a national program. The move to Stanford's chief rival comes as a surprise given Montgomery's former and current links to the Cardinal. His former assistant, Trent Johnson, replaced Montgomery at Stanford. Most recently, Montgomery has been working as an assistant to Stanford athletic director Bob Bowlsby, as well as working in television for Fox Sports Net. Montgomery compiled a 393-167 record with 12 NCAA tournament appearances in his 18 seasons at Stanford, making him the school's winningest men's basketball coach. He left Stanford in 2004 to coach in the NBA, where he compiled a 68-96 record in two seasons with the Warriors. Next up, we've got Tom Crean, formerly of Marquette, heading to Indiana. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/wire?sectio...&id=3325467 Discuss. Tom Crean should pick right up where Kelvin Sampson left off. In a good way, I mean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
