Agreed. Not realistic that he'd move for competitive reasons... would have to be personal.... maybe his Italian beauty queen/model girlfriend prefers LA living? Both you remember "MAMA" will come calling.................................... Jerritt played at Pepperdine. He got his degree at Cal State Northridge. He only coached at USC for a few years. In no way is USC "Mama" for Jerritt Elliott.

I believe this is the end of the road for Mick at USC. I went to a practice a few weeks back, and it was a disaster, even by Mick Haley practice standards. His slickness may be catching up to him. There's a backstory to his roster issues this year that really strained his credibility, and that of his staff, with the administration.
I am new to this board but you are "WORLD CLASS BACKSTABBER". You are given the privilege to go to a practice and turn around and throw M. Haley and his program under the bus. With friends like you who needs enemies?

USC since jerritt left has built the world class Galen Center and practice courts for the players. They built the John McKay center to take care of their academic and tutoring needs and are rolling in the dough from their tv contract. Cash wont be the problem and if Jerritt has a significant other interested in movies, tv and music the move is a no brainer. You've clearly never been to Austin or the Texas VB facilities.

I live in Hermosa. Anyway, I don't know whether Hugh would take the job or not, I'm just saying he'll be USC's first call. USC certainly believes they can get someone of Hugh's caliber, but on the other hand there's always been more than a whiff of arrogance hanging around Heritage Hall. Geddy - In the past, you have said that USC would go "big game hunting" when Mick retired. But, USC has not done that in other women's sports. In Women's Tennis they hired a D-3 coach. In Women's Basketball, they got turned down so much, they wound up re-hiring the guy they fired 10 years ago. So, what makes you think that volleyball will be so different? BTW, don't take this as a chalange to your knowledge. Just curious on your opinion. A conversation I had a year or so back with one of SC's senior administrators. The subject came around to "when Mick retires..." and the names being tossed around were pretty much a who's-who (one name that didn't come up? Jerritt Elliot). And I don't believe it was just idle chatter, since the admin was well aware of the compensation packages for said names. While I'm somewhat skeptical that SC can land their whale, so to speak, the volleyball program does have some insanely wealthy boosters who could make a difference. Women's basketball is an interesting case. USC went with splash hires - the two Coopers - with poor results. Most recently, they thought they had their #1 target ready to sign, but Lynn Swann frankly botched it. Part of his learning curve, I guess.

I'm not certain USC needs a "whale" either. Look at U-Dub and Oregon, they just brought in fairly young (but competent) assistants who have personalities that appeal to potential recruits. If USC can do likewise and keep some of the recruits that seem to be heading North from SoCal (and NorCal), they should be able to return to former glory.

If Jerritt were to be a target to replace Haley at USC one day, Texas won't lose a bidding war for him. There would need to be non-financial reasons for him ever leaving Texas.

Gotta be a bonfire under that seat. end of the road probably, in my opinion - don't know what the contract length was for - if this is the last year, it's over is my bet here's the rub UCIV may make a 'mini-run' in conference - Ruddins only plays one time a day, so there will be a different dynamic for opponents to deal with in conference in conference Ruddins will be much better rested - I wouldn't be too shocked if UCIV goes 10-6 in conference although I'd be surprised still, not having Juley & Chanel Hoffman has just killed UCIV this year

I think SDSU waits for the contract to run out after next season, and as far as Fresno St, after 10 years and nothing.....South Florida just waiting for the contract to run out?
