same thing why we got Jane. the Chancelor had worked with her at Riverside I believe. she had the 'in'
same thing why we got Fee, the UCSB connector
what happens when you get leaders who really do not know how to avoid bias in their decision making.
they make a narrative in their mind, and don't understand the potential problems that creates.
he's young, we'll see how much Acker has grown this year; since he didn't change any of his staff, I'm a little I'm not sure he has infused new staff learning into his methods/teaching. Many assistants are simply just not teachers, they are basketball guys that recruit lol.
look at Reagan, at least so far the growth in teaching and demeaner (she's toned down the 'joy' schtick form last year thank god) from year 1 to year 2 is fantastic.

I think Acker was Smitheran's guy right from the get go after CDM was let go. He didn't really consider any of the other candidates who applied, which included Downer. Previous Message
I think Arizona once had like a 1 point exhibition win.
it's a young squad
but yeah, I'm not sold, and have zero clue about this roster. in this NIL era how can one assess.
I just think Askew kept us in so many games last year, and without any sort of impact player, we could be in for a brutal year. the schedule is about as easy a schedule as one could imagine
I don't think Acker is on a short leash until year 4, so buckle up!
our style last year was really disjointed, not seemless passing, and what has Acker learned? not sure he knows or will learn how to teach spacing - it's a really hard thing to do. wish this staff well, nowhere to go but up!
why would anyone want to leave Point Loma! that place is gorgeous

They just lost a scrimage 79-74 to D2, Point Loma, yesterday at the Pyramid (according to X reports). Wonder how many points and rebounds Andrew Nagy tallied for PLU?
BTW, if Acker is on a short leash, the Niners absolutely need to keep Justin Downer, PLU head coach, on their short list of replacements. Perfect guy. Fits new players into his system every year and still wins BIG at the D2 level. Surprised he didn't go to a lower level D1 this past off season...
