The new guy has to fit in L.A., especially Westwood. which obviously only one poster seems to understand. There's a lot more to do out here than most anywhere else in the country besides going to a UCLA game, so the new coach is going to be competing hard for attention for the team. It's not just about wins and losses, it's a bigger ask than that. Would you rather go to a UCLA hoop game or hang out in Santa Monica or chill at the beach (no, there's no comparing gulf coast beaches with L.A. beaches, that's just plain dumb) or head to the mountains for a ski weekend or the desert to hike or ride a mountain bike trail or a gazillion other things to do year round. Ppl here don't hunker down for the winter and go to games when there's nothing else to do. The new guy is going to have to have a personality. Not sure Dixon can do that. He can put up some numbers for sure but that won't be enough. Even Lavin, who had the look, didn't have the personality for L.A. A young, energetic, smiley-faced guy who's won at a lesser school but is looking to make it big might be just the right fit.
