Grier Says No to Oregon State: San Diego coach Billy Grier isn’t ready to ditch the West Coast Conference for the Pac-10. The Toreros’ coach turned down Oregon State’s offer to replace Jay John as the Beavers’ coach. Grier led San Diego to the NCAA Tournament and a first-round upset of No. 4 Connecticut. After this season’s success, San Diego will be a favorite in the WCC next season because the team doesn’t have any seniors on its roster. [4/05/08]
