If you\u2019ve recently been laid off or you\u2019re miserable at your job, you might want to stop reading: disgraced Long Beach State coach Larry Reynolds just got hired as the head coach of a basketball program.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>A college program.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Granted, it\u2019s Cal State Stanislaus, but that someone would give Reynolds a shot is, to a writer who covered Long Beach State basketball, totally baffling. Aside from off-the-court issues with teams he had no control over, Long Beach State is just getting over its Reynolds-caused probation, since he had been illegally paying for students\u2019 JC tuition.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Perhaps Stanislaus is excited about Reynolds\u2019 ability to lead a team to the NCAA tournament\u2014of course, because of those violations, the NCAA no longer officially believes we did. And of course, there\u2019s this: <\/span>http:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/collegebasketball\/story\/10064559<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Despite that mountain of evidence, the Stanislaus athletic director told the Turlock Journal \u201cAll I want to stay is that he’s a coach of high integrity.

He took responsibility (for them) … everybody speaks about his high character.” <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Well, maybe he didn\u2019t call anyone in Long Beach, because I know for sure that not <\/span>everybody <\/span><\/em>speaks about his high character.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Good luck, Larry!<\/span> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Despite a mountain of evidence against the decision, Stanislaus has hired former LB coach Larry Reynolds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","inline_featured_image":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":"","_":"","_author_alias":"","cap-aim":"","cap-description":"","cap-display_name":"","cap-first_name":"","cap-jabber":"","cap-last_name":"","cap-linked_account":"","cap-newspack_employer":"","cap-newspack_job_title":"","cap-newspack_phone_number":"","cap-newspack_role":"","cap-user_email":"","cap-user_login":"","cap-website":"","cap-yahooim":"","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_email_html":"","newspack_email_type":"","newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_hide_page_title":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_show_share_buttons":"","newspack_sponsor_byline_prefix":"","newspack_sponsor_disclaimer_override":"","newspack_sponsor_flag_override":"","newspack_sponsor_only_direct":"","newspack_sponsor_url":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_show_updated_date":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-3713","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3713","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3713"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3713\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3713"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3713"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3713"},{"taxonomy":"newspack_spnsrs_tax","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newspack_spnsrs_tax?post=3713"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=3713"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
