Major shakeup in the college world: Legendary USC women’s coach Andrea Gaston—who won 3 NCAA titles and produced 5 national champs in 22 years—is leaving to become the head coach at Texas A&M.


Yeah yeah it’s just women’s golf, but Woodward does not play games. He goes and gets top tier. I’m excited for the b-ball hire in the next few years.

I’m sure the women’s golf coaching search was a heated event

Can you imagine taking another programs national championship coach in a sport like say football? Now that’d be something if Woodward ever managed that.

Wasn't this basically what UTk fans were boasting/declaring when Hamilton went out and hired Dave Serrano?

Remind me where Hamilton and Serrano are now?

That’s a pretty terrible analogy.

Do the athletes represent Texas A&M?
Is score kept?
If the answer to the above two questions is yes, then there is no “It’s just [sport]” ... I want them to destroy their competition.

Welcome to Aggieland, Coach Gaston!

Right right but no one is getting 100k every weekend to watch golf as it’s brings in 150 million yearly.

That’s just money.
I’m more concerned with utter and complete domination.

Did they offer her a huge pay increase to $90,000 per year or something? Maybe some Title IX sacrifices?

No clue (though chatter is that she was definitely made an offer she couldn’t refuse).
Texas A&M hasn’t released anything official yet.
Current source is the Golf Channel.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Gaston, who informed her players of her decision Monday night, has been one of the most successful coaches over the past two decades, leading the Trojans to three NCAA titles and producing five NCAA individual champions during her 22-year reign. They have finished in the top 5 at nationals in an NCAA-record 13 consecutive seasons.
