Rob Chavez Sighting

Was at the UP/GU women's basketball game this weekend and saw Rob Chavez there. Kelly Graves (the GU coach) used to be an assistant at UP when Chavez coached on the Bluff, and I assume he came to the game to see Kelly since they were talking afterward. I can't ever remember seeing him in the Chiles Center... I wonder if it was the first time he'd been back? I know that there was some bad blood when he was let go.

Anyway, I had mixed feelings seeing him. Obviously I am wistful for the days when we had 20+ wins, made back-to-back WCC finals appearances and went to the NCAA tournament, but I also am so frustrated when I think about what happened after that awesome start to his career here. Just think... if we could have landed just a few the Oregon/SW Washington kids that Gonzaga did during that time... Santangelo, Frahm, Dickau, Stepp... sigh...

Holy crap! The owner of my jacket!!

My impression of Chavez was always that he's a pretty solid game coach but an awful recruiter. When he had Steele's players to work with . . . boy, were we good!

For those of you who are new around here, before Adam Morrison . . . there was Matt Santangelo - bane of my grade school existence.

What is Chavez doing for a living?

Wasn't he working for Morgan Stanley or something at last report?
