This board contains posts that readers have deemed to be "Classic", worthy of retention for all to read. In addition, we have in our archives a collection of excellent posts made before our affiliation with the ESPN network - and before that Scout - and we hope to have those added to this board soon.

Everyone: Please join the Bear Insider Staff – and Cal fans everywhere – in extending our thanks and appreciation to running back coach Ron Gould – both for the stellar running backs he coached at Cal (Marshawn Lynch, Adimchinobe Echamandu, Shane Vereen and others) – and for his many years of work in the cause of the Cal Bears.
