That sounds good, but what did they do with the women's team opening? UCLA looks first to hiring alumni, regardless. That didn't work out for the women's team hire, but the same administrator is in charge here. It will be an alum first if possible, and then, if necessary, it will be the the cheapest good option. Reft is in his second year as the UCLA women’s coach. What the actual F are you talking about? Reft is not a UCLA alumnus. Try to keep up before you pipe up as usual. |

The UCLA men's job might be the most desired job in all of men's coaching, and that includes the national team. They are going to pick up a heavy hitter, I doubt it just gets passed down to the next guy in line... no disrespect meant to Nick or Brandon. Yes, this will be a big hire for them, and they are going to want to get it right. They've only had 2 coaches in program history, they will take their time with this. My guess also, is that I am sure that John was upfront with them that he was going through the process with USAV and UCLA has a short list of people that they are going to target for this job. I don't think that Keller will jump ship from USC to UCLA, he would be a pay cut for sure. One name that comes to mind is John Hawks, he's doing some good things at Loyola, but he was at UCLA with John for a long time, could see him wanting to go back. Other names to consider: Matt Werle Dan Friend (Does he finally look to leave Lewis?) Brad Rostratter (He's done a lot of National Team Stuff) David Hunt (Does he try and get back in the Men's Game, maybe the NT?) If they went after Rostratter, I'd have to jump ship. That would be a terrible move. I'm also not sure Friend would be a wise move either. I'd definitely take Hawks back. Werle has done great things as well. |

I think Speraw probably mentioned it to UCLA admin at least by the start of summer, Davis announced he was stepping down in March. I expect UCLA has had discussions with several candidates. I would think Hawks and Karch are reasonable assumptions. Maybe Werle. It is surprisingly hard to come up with another top level coach that has administrative experience and enough exposure to the men's side. Maybe Hildebrand or another top coach from the women's side that is willing to take a haircut on their long term earning potential and a cost of living hit. |

I’m not sure how long Speraw has known that he would be taking the job. From what other people have said, it appears that USAV had another candidate in mind who backed out relatively recently |

My guess is Vogel and I'd be very happy with him.

Ben Josephson would be a good pick.

I'm also not sure Friend would be a wise move either. I'd definitely take Hawks back. Werle has done great things as well. Leave my twunk alone 😭.  Doesn't he look like the white version of Jaylen Reyes here? |

Lots of Chatter coming from the coaching trees of the Midwest. Sources close to me have been informed that UCLA has reached out to former Ball State Legend/Coach Joel.
A two-time Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association (MIVA) Coach of the Year (2001 & 2013), Joel had 23 seasons at the helm of the Cardinals ranked fourth among active NCAA men’s volleyball head coaches (Divisions I, II or III) with 403 career wins, owning an overall record of 403-230 (.637) prior to his last season coaching (2021).
One of only 13 head coaches in NCAA men’s volleyball history to reach 400 career wins, doing so with a hard-fought 3-2 victory at Loyola on Feb. 22, 2020, Jo el is currently 12th on the list of all time wins.
Will be good zag for west coast volleyball. This would be the equivalent to a NFL team running an offense like Navy.
