Andrea Gaston, who won three NCAA titles and five individual champions, is going to Texas A&M, according to the Golf Channel.
Here’s why I am interested: Will USC go hire a proven, successful winner or go cheap to replace Gaston?
Look at recent hires in women’s sports: The women’s tennis coach came from Division III Williams College. The women’s basketball coach came from New Mexico State. The women’s volleyball coach came from Portland University.
Back in the old days, USC would hire the USA Olympic coach for women’s volleyball (Mick Haley) or the Florida State coach (Chris Gobrecht) for women’s basketball.
- Meanwhile, since you want football items, Cameron Smith was a first-team preseason Athlon All-American. Toa Lobendahn made the second team and Marvell Tell the third team.
- USC offered defensive end Bryan Bresee of Damascus, Md. He is ranked one of top players in the nation for the Class of 2020.

This is Haden’s move and it mirrors what you’re stating re. women sports

Why is Andrea Gaston leaving when she has all her players back for
next season unless some turn pro? The Golf Channel must of had an
explanation of some sorts to this sudden departure.

Maybe money?
A&M is flush with SEC Network $$$$$$. Meanwhile, USC limps along with Pac12 spare change.

Scooter,
I am shocked you don’t have a soccer update. But like every other soccer update, my response is still the same, and it is, who cares.

Justin Silverstein—never been a head coach. To answer your question USC went cheap and he is not a proven winner as a head coach. What was USC thinking?
