San Francisco, CA -- (Sports Network) - Former Stanford and Golden State Warriors head coach Mike Montgomery has reportedly agreed to terms to be the next men's basketball head coach at California.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported Friday that Montgomery has agreed in principle to be Cal's next coach.

Montgomery spent 18 seasons at Stanford, one of Cal's fiercest rivals, and guided the Cardinal to a 393-167 record, becoming the school's all-time winningest coach. Stanford had 25 winning seasons in Montgomery's 26 years there, made 12 NCAA Tournament appearances and went to the 1998 Final Four.

Montgomery left Stanford in 2004 to coach the Golden State Warriors in the NBA, where he was fired after consecutive 34-48 finishes. He took a position as an assistant to the athletics director at Stanford last August.

Montgomery replaces Ben Braun at Cal, who was fired last week after 12 seasons at the school. The Golden Bears went 219-154 under Braun, but only made five NCAA Tournament appearances in his 12 years, and only one in the last five seasons. Cal went 17-16 this season, only 6-12 in the Pac-10, and lost to Ohio State in the second round of the NIT.
