I'm completely stunned. I really did not believe we were this bad.

I dont know when I have cared less about Cal football. Between the joke of an in-person experience, the post 6pm start times that force a family vs football decision, the absolutely horrendous product on the field, and the ABSOLUTELY uncompromising acceptance of mediocrity... I just dont have any emotion left. I spent a quarter taking out a blackberry bush, and didnt miss anything.

TBH, this is the first home game I have missed in my life (a family member's negative covid test came too late to go to the game), but I didnt miss it. I thought I would, until the first drive of the game.

Agreed. Thought they would take this one easily.

Why clock running? He went out of bounds.

Holmoe's 2001 squad would absolutely beat the team that showed up today. This entire athletic department is in complete shambles and needs a total overhaul.

Wilcox enjoys a lot of goodwill among donors, AD, players, Chancellor, and campus. I wouldn't be shocked if he's able to keep his job after a disaster season.

Watching Sac State march up and down the field on the defense my immediate thought was that this could be a 1-11 team. I would love to be wrong.

It's not the Coaches. There is no real Pac 12 talent on this this team.

People calling for Troy Taylor to be the next Cal coach are not thinking big enough. There is only one head coach that will do, and that is Coach Marshawn Lynch


**** it Aaron Rodgers as HC, Marshawn as OC, Tosh as DC, make it happen.
Tosh, lol
I'd take Tosh as HC right now.

Cal is the homeless guy whos kid is dying of starvation saying he has too much pride to take food from the guy who stole his parking spot 15 years ago.


What people seem to forget is it was Wilcox who hired Tosh, flipped Shaq Thompson to UW and sunk Tedford after Tedford had given both of them their first jobs in coaching.
Thompson has been gone for 6 years.

Tedford has been gone for 9 years.

I am not forgetting. I just dont care about who **** in what cereal bowl.

The department is broken. We are the worst P5 program where it matters.

Wait... do you think that the team just has open tryouts at the start of every season for all the freshmen?

Well yes, it's obvious that too many donors don't care about anything resembling a successful program as long as they can jock sniff around the program.

6 points at home against the worst team in conference (besides us). Just appalling.

Why hire Tosh, with no head coaching experience? Because he is an alum and you think he will be loyal to us and not jump for more money if he is successful? HA HA HA HA

I saved a vine(?) for cultivating.

Also, My plan in the apocalypse is to lay down and die. It just seems like such a bad idea to survive.

Tosh can at least recruit. Wilcox can't coach or recruit. Having Tosh's recruiting ability raises the floor of the program with better talent alone. It really can't get any worse than it is right now.

eh, I am saying Cal isnt in a position to look down its nose at anyone willing to work here.

And loyalty? Cal is not going to find a more loyal coach than a guy who left Cal and took its recruits with him. Cal is a pit stop to a real team or out of the Power5.

On the list of people who MIGHT be willing to come to Cal and MIGHT do well, and that Cal MIGHT be able to afford, Tosh ranks pretty high, and people are still mad about something that happened a decade ago.

Give Wilcox decent players and .he would win. But, Wilcox cannot recruit Pac 12 talent at Cal. I'm not defending Him, with no players You lose to Wazzu and Udub. It's obvious.
