Todd Golden did it the right way. But congrats to him. Big time program and it shows how hard he has worked to get there. Truly life changing
Hey! Leave Clink alone. Quit trying to put the JUJU on him
huge difference between 250-400k a year and 2mil a year. Kind of goes hand in hand with the facility. So you are absolutely right, if he could recruit well at USF then he sure could load up with the Gators. And the dude stepping into his spot at USF, has a opportunity now to create his own journey. Win win all the way around
400k in SF isn’t even good money too. That sounds crazy I know but any decent house is 1.5-2m now. Insane.
Larry if I recall correctly the university has provided housing to a few of the recent coaches. I could be wrong, but I recall someone speaking on that during one of the Bruce Mahoney games a few years back.
Doing some looking, one site had him around 575k in 2017, but he also signed a 10 year contract in 2017 as well. So no doubt he could easily be in the range your speaking. I also found a article, and his wife says Randy doesn’t like change. She makes him the same sandwich every game day. On that note one year up at Arco he was watching Mitty play. He ran into a coach I drove up and they know each other. He said I lost my ride back to the bay and I can’t get ahold of him. I said I will be glad to drive you back to Moraga. As we headed towards the car his phone rang. I was like damn that would have been one hell of a conversation for a good hour and a half.
That makes sense on the housing package. I believe cal /stanford does similar. I’m glad Bennett stayed. He’s built a power and moraga is gem.
@colhenrylives . Agree with you. I have some family that is alumni. Say it’s a soccer school and everything else is 2nd! Men’s hoop making tremendous strides. 21 wins this year and herb sendek is a legit coach. Baseball is also pretty solid. And at end of day it’s the best academic school in the WCC.
Regarding the baseball program, no, it's not anywhere near where it should be...which is top of the line on the West Coast. SCU is located in what amounts to a hotbed of suburban high school baseball talent yet the Broncos languish as a middling-to-bad program on a depressingly regular basis. They have a terrific mini-stadium and lots of other amenities. But the annual roster and results are less than stimulating. Through 2019 (their last full campaign), they have posted losing seasons in 15 of the last 20 seasons. Grim. It's frustrating to watch Stanford produce outstanding baseball teams every season while SCU, just 12 or so miles to the south on El Camino Real, cannot.
how much bigger is the budget at stanford? also is it hard to recruit baseball players like it is for football and basketball? i know nothing about baseball
I think baseball is one of the hardest to “project” how a kid will end up. Basketball and football depend so much on size, athleticism, and god given talent which is usually evident to the eye during recruiting. Baseball is so much harder. You can be fat, slow, but have a cannon and hit bombs. And baseball is not fully funded d1 sport. These teams have 12 scholarships to divide up.
