There is a revealing story about Saint Mary's basketball coach Randy Bennett, told by longtime Gaels assistant Kyle Smith. Bennett and Smith were coaching at the University of San Diego, sharing a hotel room in Los Angeles before a West Coast Conference game against Pepperdine. Smith woke up in the middle of the night and saw Bennett -- still asleep -- standing on top of his bed with his knees bent and his hands out in a defensive "ready" position. The man who might be at the top of Oregon State's wish list as it searches for a new coach has been described as feisty, intense, highly organized, incredibly loyal to his assistants, and very deliberate when he makes important decisions.

A coach who mimicks basketball while he sleeps???... Makes sense... Seeing as Oregon State actually sleeps... While trying to play basketball

Woo. Who cares, it's the 'Chucks Basketball team. The last time they were good, they had the Glove.
