Long Beach State Sports : Re: Cal State Los Angeles new coach.

Does NIL effect D2 schools? DE Anthony Langston had as much experience as Acker . Would have been a better hire.

Coop was available when Monson was hired.

I don't care who we hire next, but they better be innovative and know how to do a lot with a little. But Acker and Bobby may be leading us straight into DII the way they handle stuff. Oh but its our fault for not throwing our hard earned savings into the NIL money pit.

Agree, I’ve been lobbying for DeAnthony Langston. Have you ever talked to him? He loves his Alma mater. When I go to one of his summer league games he is so happy to see someone with a LB hat on.
Anyway I would hope the fans could support someone like him.
Bring back the 49er and Prospector Pete and give the team to DL and maybe some fans would return. Just my opinion.
Ps. Was Coop available when Acker was hired.?

Great for Cal State LA. What a coop . Do we have any ex players from LBS coaching? That is what we need a ex player from here to coach.

From LA Times
Michael Cooper’s return to Cal State Los Angeles is more than just another coaching stop — it’s a homecoming.

The Lakers legend was introduced Wednesday as the program’s 14th men’s basketball head coach, bringing with him decades of experience and a clear vision: return the Golden Eagles to championship form.

The goal for Cooper is to reestablish what the men’s basketball program achieved two years ago, winning a championship.

Cooper believes that building a championship team starts with what he calls the five Ds: determination, dedication, desire, discipline and decision-making.
