Yeah, but Pope would have to leave or be fired first so Madsen would have to wait. I do wonder how things would have turned out if Madsen had been hired instead of Pope. I think Pope previously being an assistant at BYU made him a shoe-in. Plus Pope did do well at UVU while Madsen had yet to coach at the college level (I believe). Now that we are a P5 school maybe Madsen comes in a few years if it doesn't work out for him at Cal.
