That stings. He was doing a great job. I wonder what brought this about.

We're going to miss Nilsson. Helluva recruiter for our program. I wonder what our list of replacements will be.

I spoke with Per yesterday. He was actually an assistant at Pepperdine before coming to State. Super nice guy and wish him well.

Ouch. Hope Stricklin makes a great hire. Men's tennis was becoming a strong program.

I have a feeling that we SHOULD be able to get a good coach given the reputation of our club. Needless to say, if we don't get a good hire it's not because of the outside perception of our Tennis program.

Stricklin has shown the ability to make great hires. If this hire is along the lines of the Studemann/Schaefer hires, we'll be just fine.

Do we hire an assistant? Or can we get a head coach in this sport?

How's La La'a tennis program?
