Kim Bauer is Jack's troubled teenage daughter/kidnap victim who sneaks out with boys in season 1, but in season 2 is a competent computer/counter terrorism expert working right next to Chloe. Maybe she got her counter terroism degree during season 2 and reappeared in season 3??? Not sure. Maybe UCLA offered a major in Counter-Terrorism with classes that fit her busy schedule saving the world from evil? Associates degree from Santa Monica College - or that's what the Fox website had in the character bio. Got to love how she turned from a trashy dressing high schooler to someone saving the world in two years.

Apologize for interrupting the flight to fantasy, but considering availability, qualification, and UCLA ties: Burt Fuller would be a competitive candidate.

Ah, hire Bill Walton. Could have been the greatest MB in volleyball history; just take up the game late in life.

On 24? ;D - okay, orange juice came out my nose on that one. But, back to Burt Fuller - He was an asst. there before Utah State, right? Possibillities. definitely. BTW - my daughter got the Varsity job yesterday at the school she's been the JV coach at for 2 years. I swear she's aged 5 years after one day on the job.

Is Banachowski's "retirement" the same as Jay Leno's supposed "retirement"? Cuz, maybe Banachowski will be back on another team. Sort of like Terry Liskevych.

This would be something:
Banachowski to LMU. Stratos to UCLA.

Banachowski has been at UCLA for over 40 years. It wouldn't surprise me if he weren't happy right now to just fade into the sunset, play golf, and retire on his UC pension. If he really has an urge to coach volleyball, he could easily be the star at any assorted volleyball camp/clinic.

At 40+ on the pension scale (even with California's fiscal problems) I'd assume Andy doesn't need a job. But, while he doesn't strike me as the type of man who just wants to play golf and travel, I wouldn't guess that he'd want to start over at another University.
He should have a wide range of options from camps and training to consulting, being a hiring agent for other coaches, or doing TV work.
I know there are detractors here and I'm sure if you asked him, even he would have regrets about some of his actions/decisions over a 43-year stint...but he should be able to sleep good at night. His accomplishments are so incredibly remarkable and the longevity in one high-level, high-stress position for more than four decades is the stuff of legends.

Coaches get that chance anyways when the season is over and before spring practices can start. I suppose they could hit the recruiting trail, but opportunities to recruit are limited by the NCAA.

Andy had been considering retiring for the past 4-5 months had even talked to his administration about it. This seems abrupt, and a response to what just accured b ut in fact it was something he was strongly considering, this just made it a no brainer. The AD has told several people that in no way was he asked to resign or retire.

That would've been like Jack Donaghy going from GE to ConEd.
