Frank Burlison reports in his blog that 49er MVB coach Alan Knipe will be taking over the USA Men's Volleyball squad for the next three years. Due to this commitment, Knipe will be taking a sabbatical from the Long Beach State program effective at the end of this season. Congrats to Coach Knipe, and good luck as he guides USA Volleyball thru the London Olympics in 2012!
In other 49er stuff, the search continues for the next Women's Basketball coach, after Mary Hegarty's contract was not renewed. Is former coach Joan Bonvicini in the mix? Some folks would like to see Margaret Mohr take the helm, or current USC assistan Jody Winn. Could there be an interesting wild-card candidate, a la Paul Westhead taking the women's job at Oregon? Will Journalist Doug E. get his wish with a return of Dallas Bolla? Hopefully, we'll find out within a week or so.
As Men's BB jobs open up around the country, will Dan Monson be pursued for any of them? The rumor mill already has him mentioned (among many others) as a potential candidate at Washington State, although Portland State's Ken Bone appears to be the top man for that gig.
