Lots of big names have listened but when they found out the fan base leaves the swimnasium half way through the meets, their interests cools.


Maybe the only way to cure that is to win. I remember gymnastics not pulling in big crowds for a very long time but when they became nationally competitive it changed quickly. Have they ever seriously looked at expanding/renovating the natatorium? I seem to recall in another thread when the coach was fired, that someone said some renovation has been done. I’ve been in there a few times but not in recent years.

Edit: just saw this video. Looks rough. LINK

He is joking. No one goes to swim meets. The only people that show up are family and close friends. I swam my whole life and my sisters swam in college. It is the most boring sport ever.

Saw interviews during the Olympic trials with both the Stanford and Cal coaches who are coaching the women and men's Olympic teams respectively. Two pretty impressive guys in their interviews. Wondering if Woodward is "shaking the coaching trees" of some of these coaches to find an assistant who might prove to be head coaching material. Seems like they are taking a little time to make the hire and maybe that could be a good thing? Also wondering about the recruiting time frame for college swimming. When is the signing deadline for swimming?
