If UCLA is going to let Sealy go, they need to do it quickly. There are at least 4 PWR 5 teams already looking for a New Head Coach. If UCLA waits to long, they will only get what is left over. In this case, they might as well hang on to Sealy. UCLA should be the most attractive or second most attractive job (along with Minnesota) whether it opens today or in a couple weeks.

True, but if they wait to long, prospective Head Coaches will not wait on them to decide. These prospective Head Coaches do not want to be left hanging. With the idea that UCLA may just keep Sealy, as the Head Coach.

But I don't think they have to make it today or tomorrow.

Changes have to be made. It is is UCLA and they are not in the tourney for the second time in 5 years and they just lost two key players to the portal. Silence could mean that Sealy is under contract for foreseeable future. Could be looking at a repeat of 2019 where they brought in a new associate head coach and a new assistant coach. Sorry to throw water on the Sealy fire . . .

I think they should make it by the end of next week at the latest. One wrinkle is that they might be waiting to see what their fate is with the regents on whether they'll be allowed to move to the Big Ten. That decision is set for December 14.

They are more likely to throw money at Karch. Would Karch even want that job? I get that he's an alum, but I can't see him moving until after Paris at the earliest, and he's already in his 60s. Karch is 62 (as you said) won't be available until he is 64, has never coached college and never recruited. I can't imagine he is excited to hit the club circuit at this point in his career, and he would be a 6+ year coach, barely enough time to really turn things around. Fisher is 46 and could be a 20 year hire.

Sorry to throw water on the Sealy fire . . . Two? I have only heard about 1. Grad transfers don't count. They are free agents who have finished their scholarship and are available to anyone (including their original schools). It certainly doesn't sound like Sealy has done anything truly firable, and it is doubtful UCLA wantS to buyout his contract before it is up.

He is from Santa Barbara and seemed interested in USC for the right price, so yeah, I do.

I just think that UCLA will have to pony up if they want him, which is something they historically haven't been that willing to do from my understanding. The Big Ten money may change that, provided the regents approve the move and don't force UCLA to subsidize Cal for a while.

Luper is in the portal. Likely a couple more to follow. You try way too hard to come across as an insider when all you do is DM actual insiders and BEG for info. The information was posted in this thread 4 hours before WahineFan44 's post and posted in the 2023 Transfer Portal Tea an hour and a half before that. Nothing about his scream's "insider".
