We’re in a weird time for Cal men’s basketball. Because last year was so historically bad, and because Wyking Jones was hired as perhaps the least experienced head coach in program history, many are ready to see a change. On the other hand, Jones has only been on the job for 1.25 season, an amount of time generally considered woefully inadequate to determine whether or not a coaching hire is successful or unsuccessful.
And so the Cal fan base goes through narrative convulsions, with calls for a new head coach after every defeat and claims that the young Bears have found their footing after every victory.
