Arizona State: Sendek Starts Fresh on the West Coast



Sendek Starts Fresh on the West Coast: Arizona State officials have hired North Carolina State coach Herb Sendek to replace Rob Evans in Phoenix. Sendek leaves the Wolfpack despite reaching the NCAA Tournament five consecutive seasons. In 10 seasons in Raleigh, Sendek led the Wolfpack to a 191-132 record. But many boosters and fans were critical of Sendek because North Carolina State is only 17-54 against its three in-state ACC rivals. Years of success cannot erase the pain of losing to the most prestigious ACC programs. Sendek worked through the criticism for years, but the right opportunity finally came along to convince him to leave. [4/03/06]
