Mike Sealy Named UCLA Head Women's Volleyball Coach
I have never heard of him and did a quick Google check but all I came up with was the link to our Athletics site, so maybe someone with a better background in Women's Volleyball can offer some insight.
My initial thoughts are that he seems to be a good hire with lots of experience and strong Bruin ties. However, one of the reasons Coach Banachowski was such a legend was because he always made a connection with the fans in addition to the on-court success. It will be interesting to see if Sealy can match that enthusiasm and keep attendance numbers strong.

He was an amazing player at UCLA
I watched his whole career in Pauley. If he can coach as well as he played, and it sounds like he can from his coaching career up to now, it’s a great hire.
Hawai'i press credits him for being a key part of their success
so let’s hope he brings that into UCLA, too. He recently turned down a head coaching position for LMU so maybe the UCLA job is his dream job, like for CRN and CBH, and that he’ll really give it his all.

Based on his resume
he looks to be extremely well qualified. As someone who doesn’t know enough about the sport to go past the resume, it looks like a great hire to me.
