Contrary to nearly everything else being written this week, the decision to fire California's basketball coach, Lou Campanelli, wasn't made by athletic director Bob Bockrath.
The final call belonged to Chancellor Chang-Lin Tien.
A source close to the school, who requested anonymity, said yesterday that Tien, along with Vice Chancellor Daniel Boggan Jr., was appalled over Campanelli's verbal abuse of players, mercurial behavior and, in the source's words, "conduct unacceptable to the university."
