Nice ESPN article on Dan Monson......

[Spaulding!No!]

The bit about young children is spot on. Something had to give. And by most accounts, he is a great father…….

Eunuchs only!

 

[fan of Ray Williams]

Monson's Long Beach team got the win last night at home against UC-Davis which, I think, assures them of at least a share of the title. They beat 2nd place Cal State Fullerton in an earlier match up and the other game was cancelled, so maybe they won it outright.

Edit: LBSU (17-11 overall, 11-3 Big West) clinch at least a share of the Big West Conference regular-season title and the No. 1 seed in next week’s Big West Tournament after Cal State Fullerton (17-10, 10-4) lost to UC Riverside, 75-72, on Thursday.

Colin Slater helps Long Beach State edge UC Davis, clinch share of Big West title

Slater makes his only 3-pointer of the night on his 13th attempt with one second left to give LBSU a 68-65 win and the top seed for the Big West tourney.

Eunuchs only!

Uh huh. I think at one point dude was head coach at a struggling Big Ten basketball team, with a newborn and 3 other kids below the age of 7. Or something along those lines. I hear he was a great father. You have any kids?

Another story with insight on Monson and his team
Ha, never mind...different link to the same story Ray has above. But worth reading one of them if you're poking around this thread.
