Moe Golshani said the timing was fortuitous.
Golshani said he was told by Mission Viejo administration Monday that he was not going to be retained as the school’s boys basketball coach, and almost simultaneously Golshani landed the coaching job at Hug High School in Sparks, Nevada.
He previously coached at Bishop Mangoue in Nevada.
“They (Mission Viejo school administrators) told me Monday they were going in a different direction,” Golshani said Tuesday. “And it was good timing. There’s no hard feelings.”
Mission Viejo athletic director Troy Roelen confirmed that the school has an opening for a varsity boys basketball coach.
Golshani, 43, coached Mission for two seasons. This past season the Diablos went 16-14 overall and finished in a three-way tie for second place in the South Coast League with a 4-5 mark.
In the CIF Southern Section Division 3A playoffs, the Diablos beat Western in the first round and lost to Ontario Christian in the second round.
“I have nothing bad to say about Mission Viejo,” said Golshani, who has business interests in Nevada. “I wish it would have ended differently, but it is what it is.”
