Stanford is in the market for a basketball coach after dismissing Johnny Dawkins on Monday. Don't be surprised if the national search concludes a short distance from campus.
The Cardinal is expected to pursue former big man and current Warriors assistant coach Jarron Collins, according to multiple sources.Collins played in the NBA, worked for the Pac-12 Networks and joined the Warriors staff two years ago. His interest level in the Stanford vacancy is not known.Dawkins took the Cardinal to just one NCAA tournament in eight years and never contended for the Pac-12 regular season or tournament titles."This decision was not easy, and it was a very difficult discussion for both Johnny and me,'' Stanford athletic director Bernard Muir said in a statement.
