Long Beach State Sports : UCR vs Fullerton is tough call

Greg is a young, ambitious and smart person (about the same age as Smitheran) who pretty much runs the day to day at Fullerton. He applied for the AD job at LB when it eventually went to Smitheran. Greg had a lot more direct experience at the time, but perhaps we got swayed by San Diego State's status over Fullerton's.

UCR is a tough gig. Greg has a marketing and fundraising background, but UCR is a tough gig in terms of generating donors and gifts, as was Fullerton.
