If you were Foster's agent, would you advise that?

Who were you going to get to come in a situation like that, at that pay, as an interim coach? I think it is safe to say Ucla would have had to pay a lot more to get someone else to come into that situation. If someone had HC experience, I'm sure they would have made it clear that it would have also cost to hire Assistant Coaches. And quite honestly, I'm still not convinced if Foster wasn't named HC, there wouldn't have been a serious exodus of players.

If Foster's agent had agreed to that, he/she would have been out of a job by the end of the day.
