Getting a middling mid-major like Portland to .500 in conference is nice, but hardly an elite coaching job. And Holloway had crucial P5 AC/recruiting experience prior to St P…is Shantay a dynamic recruiter that’s going to attract 4* talent to Cal? Doubtful. Can he accurately sell an institution he himself bailed on? He’s not a graduate, so does he really see the value of a Cal education? He didn’t as a SR.
I actually have some pretty fond memories of that era...Lamps, Shipp, Wethers, etc...had some real exciting wins, with Tamir going for 39 in the Oregon win being a highlight. Haas could get to rocking...

Important questions
[technically an alumnus only has to have attended a school - graduation is not necessary]
TIL…fixed it!
Tho were Legans a graduate it’s a different conversation. Instead, tho a potential team captain as SR PG, he quit in August. That matters.
Oh - I agree. Also that era of Cal teams I have the least connection to - I don't care much for the Shipp/Vanderlaan/Legans/ etc. teams.
