When Harsin was at Auburn he ran off all the young African American coaches that the players liked and were Auburn's best recruiters, brought in his guys from Boise, then lost all their offensive talent to the Portal, delivered the worst recruiting classes in Auburn's history and had the #85 offense by his second year.
A coaching style that worked at Boise State in the Mountain West before the Portal era will not work in Berkeley in a P4 conference in the Portal era. If we didn't think of that before, we should have learned it with the Mark Fox fiasco in basketball.
Agreed - Wilcox failed to do proper due diligence and once again hired a bad OC. Unforgivable after the 3 time and this is what #5?
Failed to do due diligence?
They previously worked together on staff for multiple highly successful years at Boise. C'mon.

Back when we chatted with new RBs coach Julian Griffin in the spring, he shed some light on the group and what it was like being a new coach in a room of established backs for the Bears.

I did not know that .. so this is even worse. No one wants to come work for Wilcox/Cal except for his unemployed acquaintances. Sheesh

He was going to be the guy, maybe even with Ott, so if he decided to bounce and so did everybody else, why would he be more inclined to stay versus the others? None of them are coming backKoreAmBear said:
Shocky what is the chance that we can get The Jet to stay? Slim and none? I would be OK overall with my outlook for the season if he was the one guy to come back.
Because we could possibly give him what Ott would have made, which I would assume is a much bigger bag. I mean still get to play in front of friends and family, with huge increase in NIL. Why not deal with a dbag for a year lol? Sometimes that's life. Lots of employees have to tolerate toxicity to pay bills, so it ain't like some Greek tragedy. Graduate from Cal and hit the combines. Cal football needs to make him the #1 priority for anything right now, if there is still a chance.Strykur said:He was going to be the guy, maybe even with Ott, so if he decided to bounce and so did everybody else, why would he be more inclined to stay versus the others?

watched some of the tourney on TV and Cal players were quite prominent, Doing a lot of good things - the talent level is pretty good. The consistency isn't, especially on Par 3s as Shocky suggests.Shocky1 said:Daniel Heo earned a top-5 individual finish as the Golden Bears placed seventh at the Western Intercollegiate.#GoBears pic.twitter.com/RN8mCyqwmd

the question: the bears finished at +29 on the 5 par 3s at pasatiempo, the question is can coach wilson & coach ireland get this ongoing problem addressed prior to the upcoming acc championship tournament??
yeah maybe instead of playing shocky's beloved san francisco golf club during qualifying practice rounds maybe the bears should be playing the lake chabot par 3 course next to the oakland zoo or something

Great student, electric local player, could be our key to building a broad fan base in the East Bay. Rivera should interview him and if it is a staff member or staff members whose behavior has driven all our offensive players away, then Ron should make sure that person is gone. We don't have time to let this crater out.

football is a violent sport, justin wilcox (despite getting paid 4 million bucks a year) stood stoically on the sidelines all last season while jaydn & the other cal running backs got physically abused via inane predictable runs into granite statues instead of directing his offensive coordinator to call PITCHOUTS in wide open space on the edges...oklahoma is gonna find creative ways to get ott in open space this fall
future hall of fame nfl defensive legend marvin lewis has tole me multiple times that cal wuz the most predictable offensive to gameplan against in the pac 12, that's a reflection of the head coach rubber jacketing beau baldwin's playcalling & giving the keys to the offense to an alcoholic (read my past account of meeting billy m along with his drinking buddy charlie ragle at the phoenix open's 16th hole) bill musgrave
ott's injury last season wuz not only due to playcalling but also due to wilcox retaining failed s&c coach brian johnson too long when it wuz obvious to everybody that the program's stacking of INJURIES wuz due to a non accountable s&c program (which has now been corrected with coach novak & his staff which transparently grade each player's workouts)
and despite losing 3-4 games last season due to a failed placekicking operation, last saturday's spring showcase wuz another ****show performance with low trajectory kicks & off target longsnapping...and yeah when shocky got involved tryna save mateen bhaghani from being unfairly run off by longwell, wilcox opted close his eyes to the distortion & just look away from the darkness
today's college football coaching requires an extrovert like asu's dilly who is loved by his players, staff, donors, students & the fanbase who interacts with everybody including the monster...justin wilcox is an introvert
poor decision making has both short & long term consequences (rich lyons is tuning out/disregarding donors & berkeley alums which will have devastating financial consequences)#
