Mark Gottfried, a former UCLA assistant who became the head coach at North Carolina State, Alabama and Murray State, is expected to be introduced as the men’s basketball coach at Cal State
Northridge on Tuesday. Jeff Goodman of ESPN first reported the Gottfried hiring. And former UCLA coach Jim Harrick could be joining Gottfried. Harrick said Monday: “I’m back in it,” but
wouldn’t reveal specifics pending a Tuesday news conference. Another former Harrick assistant, Lorenzo Romar, was named the Pepperdine coach on Monday. “I think it’s fantastic,” Harrick
said. “They’re both coming back to Southern California helping young people. They’re both gifted and talented guys.” Gottfried and Romar were assistants for UCLA’s 1995 NCAA championship
team under Harrick. CSUN fired coach Reggie Theus and athletic director Brandon Martin last week. [email protected]_ _TWITTER: @LATSONDHEIMER_ MORE TO READ
