"…has NOT flipped to miami at this time" is not the sort of definitive language I was hoping for.

As for your list of reasons, manifest it, Shocky. Manifest it.

https://instagr.am/p/DMz1ptduSL1
grrrrah, nothing is evah guaranteed in recruiting, maybe nemyah will check the weather or something & find out the current heat index in miami is in the range of 105-110 with insane tropical forest humidity which would be kinda like hades for a cali guy

but miami at least got muy caliente chicas delivering the bad news

https://instagr.am/p/DI35i9NObKh

https://instagr.am/p/DF-6s7GS4Ny
cal softball (shocky is a new fan to the sport) has hired a well regarded assistant coach from texas but remarkably jennifer simon-o'neil extended the prior head coach in february of this year when it wuz already known to many of us that the prior head coach wuz in full mental breakdown crazy town mode which added an avoidable significant additional financial cost to the buyout

and this is just another example of jay & jenny wasting ur (not mine) money

honestly it wuz pretty traumatizing for me when after attending 100+ home & road games in a row in tryna help men's basketball win a national championship that cal's monster class wuz unilaterally terminated (the details don't matter anymore to me) but life goes on & we adapt to our new realities



so shocky flipped his energy, resources & unlimited passion for cal's men's basketball into his then brand new yoga/meditation practice and animal advocacy here in arizona & is today the largest fundraiser (checks never written to me, ima not a fiduciary agent) for rescue doggy dogs in the southwest!!

a couple of thoughts on successful fundraising:

1) shocky never tells anybody how to spend their money, he meets with the wealthiest people in the valley of the sun (often thru his golf contacts) & just does the hang with them maybe asking them about their pets

2) if a donation is offered & guidance is asked for the best placement of those dollars shocky will recommend a couple of facilities that he's researched for financial fiduciary responsibility, he never funnels donations to poorly run organizations where the "management" is lining their pockets or just ******* wasting money

3) once a pledge is offered shocky always collects a check within 48 hours 100% of the time, berkeley got hundred of million dollars plus in non binding pledges that are never gonna be collected upon & basically worthless (and for this reason the university's financial future is significantly bleaker/overstated than acknowledged by chancellor lyons)

4) human nature is such that if people feel disrespected it's almost impossible to get them donating again, trusting (non fractured) relationships are the KEY to successful fundraising

on football gamedays shocky (whose attended 2 games at haas pavilion during the last 8 years) is frequently asked if there's any hope for cal basketball, the honest answer is no until the right basketball general manager is hired that already got the necessary contacts to successfully fundraise the critically needed basketball practice facility (there are ZERO mcdonalds all americans these days that are gonna commit to berkeley which would necessitate developing their craft/nba hoop dreams in the unstable hours offered by the rsf gold gym) & jaylen brown becomes the recruiting face of the program

GREAT news outta the wide receiver room:

former 5 star ohio state transfer kyion grayes has finally gotten his body right & is healthy for really the 1st time in his collegiate career, he's gotta opportunity to be a wr1 this fall for them california golden bears!!

shocky saw kyion play at chandler high school back in the day, he had the unreal combination of SPEED & body control

so the monster wuz really interested when he played his 1st game last season in winston-salem at wake forest...shocky dialed in on kyion during the early warm ups & then literally he wuz wide open every time he went into a route with the deacs defensive backs yards away after his hard cuts...caught a couple of balls that night but then grayes got injured again

props to kyion working hard in coach novak's transformative s&c program, coach cefalo demands BLOCKING & grayes now got the body to knock mother******* on their azzs in the ground game!!

plus he got good hair (unlike coach cefalo)

whose ur caddy??

watching them low key interact without a lotta conversation up close last sunday in tahoe max 100% got the right caddie for him right now in lance bennett who is kinda like a quiet stoic bag man for our california golden bear superhero without a lot of unnecessary ******* drama (homa needs to own his shots/decisions just like he did back in the back as a fearless champion junior golfer playing discount golf balls at valencia muni)!!

https://instagr.am/p/CkT9ar2SE1e
collin is waiting to see wut his best friend kk limbhaust wants to do long term (shocky honestly thinks that kk lacks the clubhead speed to compete on the pga tour, he's currently 137th in driving distance on the korn ferry tour)...limbhaust didn't get into the this week's korn ferry tournament after the rankings reshuffle & is currently the 4th alternative for next week's utah championship...kk is currently #169 in the korn ferry rankings with only the top 156 advancing into the 1st round of the playoffs in mid august & his 2026 korn ferry tour card in jeopardy

if morikawa needs a placeholder caddy in memphis either his wife kat (who played golf at nobu malibu pepperdine) or shocky is available to loop for FREE!!

yeah relationships are kinda complex & sometimes timing/responsibilities/dreams affect those relationships...stay tuned baby, life is NOT linear (and nobody can 100% predict the future)

collin morikawa caddie update: collin is gonna employ his 5th caddie of 2025 this week in memphis with mark urbanek...and max homa's best friend/former caddie joe greiner is gonna loop for fellow north scottsdale resident jake knapp who unlike the cal men's golf team fastidiously monitors his daily protein grams intake & hits the living **** outta the ball

Looks like it’ll be Mark Urbanek (former caddie for Tony Finau) on the bag with Collin Morikawa this week. pic.twitter.com/HmAR0uF1ZA

https://instagr.am/p/DCP4hlSyZfA
pitts, agreed that kyion is now YOKED which is really important with the new demands for bears wideouts violently BLOCKING this season!!

grayes & tobias merriweather (now utah) looked like long legged foals on the field in winston-salem, it wuz just a matter of time before the elite non physical +1 athletes with exceptional pass catching skillz got injured again with their body construction types...the acc is not flag ******* football

the 1st time the remarkably undersized mikey matthews (now ucla) or jonathan brady (now indiana) blocks anybody in a college football game will be a 1st time if that evah happens

the only memorable wideout block of the 2024 season wuz nyziah hunter (struggled academically in berkeley, now nebraska) laying the wood on a tigers defensive back in front of the cal sideline at the auburn game which got his teammates demonstrably fired up

the cal offense is finally gonna be able to burn clock/execute on 3rd & 2/4th & 1 because coach cefalo is gonna demand violent BLOCKING in the running game thx in large part to the transformative body changes this summer by coach novak & his passionate s&c staff

coach harsin stated he will identify 4 starters, a 5th guy to spell the starters & a 6th jack of all trades that can play all the x/y/z positions...shocky's way too early predictions are trond grizzell, jacob de jesus & kyion grayes as starters with mark hamper & dazmin james battling for the 4th/5th roles

saturday's scrimmage will go a long way in identifying the wide receiver room depth chart/playing rotation

BLOCKING wins football games & gets wideouts PAID in the NFL!!#

frederick: 310 lbs, +10 lbs (close to the 315 lbs goal)
braden: 315 lbs, no change (needs to add a couple more lbs to be an effective starter)
bastian: 310 lbs, +5 lbs (needs to add a couple more lbs)
tyson: 310 lbs, no change (the natural leader needs to add a couple more lbs)
daveion: 305 lbs, +5 lbs (needs a MONSTER s&c fall camp in the s&c program, still too light to start)

agreed jb that cal's monster offensive line looks BEEFIER primarily because coach anae's room did a lotta work this summer!!

coach harsin stated that he would like to identify a 7 man playing rotation, saturday's scrimmage will go a long way in allowing the standouts to reveal themselves thru their play on the field

shocky's way too early predictions are nick morrow & braden miller as starting tackles with frederick williams as the 1st tackle off the bench....sioape vatikani as a starting guard with an intense interior including center position competition between jordan moko, tyson ruffins, lamar robinson & daveion harley

collin morikawa WON the PGA TOUR championship at east lake last september!!!!

now that the pga has dumped the previous silly dumb azz format of artificially assigning strokes prior to play for this tournament when are the pga tour, golf fans from around the world & the semi legitimate media including gabi, colt knost, nuclear golf, the fried egg, no laying up & club pro guy gonna recognize collin's 2024 victory??

honestly morikawa should get an engraved ******* trophy presented to him at his next tourament & the pga tour record books amended to show/reflect the TRUE champion at east lake!!

**** cbs & the golf channel#

---

huge props to golf channel commentator todd lewis for acknowledging that basically collin morikawa won the 2024 tour championship!!

but a big boo to dumb azz talking head eamon lynch for incorrectly reporting that collin has won only 1 tournament in the last couple of years not respecting his win last fall at east lake

funny story: shocky along with other key influential golf architecture raters wuz invited back in the day to the grand opening of diamante dunes in cabo san lucas which wuz the cypress point of mexico before they started building a ****ton of homes off the fairways including shocky & his daughter shay's beloved nobu cabo hotel which is by far the best resort experience in mexico

anyways on a par 5 on the back nine shocky hits a crooked azz hook into a pretty deep sand dune bunker down the left side of the fairway...my shot is totally blind so shocky hits a crisp 9 iron to get the ball back into play...my caddie javier is raking the bunker & after cleaning up the splashed sand with my golf shoes shocky briskly exits the bunker and strides down the fairway

my longtime g2c2 (global golf centurion club) buddy tommy from seal beach (o club member) looks at me with a smirk & says "ruh roh schulzie"...got no idea wut he's talking about

walk another 10 feet & our playing partner eamon lynch is screaming at me that the monster hit into him & that the my shot smashed directly into his golf cart narrowly missing his head by inches!!

shocky walks up to the screaming/hysterical peacock & calmly tells eamon "brah, u drive ur ******* golf cart in front of us when i got a blind shot from a fairway bunker and ur blaming me??...to be honest with u eamon i've never even met anybody from ireland that rides in a golf cart except YOU"

there wuz not a lotta conversation between us for the rest of the round

yeah shocky is a real charmer

honestly zhou might be the next california golden bear to successfully compete on the pga tour with continued development during his collegiate career in berkeley, the most impressive part of his game are his bullet low ball flight trajectory 2 irons which are only possible because of his fundamentally textbook swing & elite +1 athleticism

yeah shocky is kinda loud cheering for his bears (college tournament crowds are kinda more muted/quiet than the pga tour) & after a couple of enthusiastic "let's go eric, let's do this, go bears" after a couple of holes ziqin's mom who is visiting from china introduced herself & we ended up fist bumping after quite a few of his successfully holed putts...her son is a big fan of coach wilson & intends to major in economics...while walking down the 18th fairway mrs zhou gave me & vandy absolutely tasty pork dumplings from her iced backpack which rival anything in hong kong, it's good to be a hungry california golden bear!!

the 10th place bears are still in a position to qualify for the 8 team match play after 72 holes, gotta get some production from the #5 spot in the starting line up tomorrow...great chatting also with coach desimone (looking healthy!!), blue shirting charlie bundy (who multiple sources tole me will be a key factor in the playing rotation next season, charlie will hear back from the haas biz school in july re: his application) & wiry 2026 commitment graham christopher (we talked at length re: his need for loading up on daily protein grams)

^ coach wilcox would agree with u, that's why cal's roster has been undersized at every position (except defensive back & maybe linebacker) during his time in berkeley (until coach novak & his staff implemented their strength in motion concepts) while they pursued winning football games thru technical excellence or something

the 50+ professional golfers (homa, rahm, clark, finau, knapp, etc.) living in north scottsdale would not agree tho as they all relentlessly work out & monitor daily protein gram intakes while smashing the living **** outta the golf ball

That was a big debate back when Desean Jackson refused our bodybuilder strength trainers' demands that all players, regardless of position, do the same workouts to bulk up and instead did his own workout emphasizing speed, fast twitch muscles, and flexibility. Desean was called a "Prima Donna" and a "cancer" and that his leaving to the NFL would be "addition by subtraction."

The next year, Nate Longshore who bulked up bigger than a tight end, tore his pec bench pressing. He would have been far better off and likely would have avoided injuries and made the NFL if he had instead listened to Shockey and practiced yoga instead.

2025 pga memphis tournament at tpc corporate center southwind: 1st round update

collin morikawa (66, tied for 7th): after a near flawless 17 holes morikawa underestimated the grain/green speed running towards the lake on the par 4 18th hole & three jacked it from 25 feet on the fringe with the putter...but luv this guy as he smiles to shake hands with his playing partner & new caddie, there's no tempter tantrum or pity party with collin...we wuz both raised by tiger moms that tole us deal with adversity by never complaining but rather outworking the competition next time and that's 100% wut's gonna happen tomorrow morning when morikawa takes advantage of his very early morning much cooler tee time...let's ******* go, collin!!

fun fact: this lousy course is a casebook example of vapid american modern architecture before the minimalists (coore, doak & hanse) with relatively flat greens & absolutely nothing quirky in terms of the design...yeah it favors driving the ball straight while avoiding the deep bermuda rough, stuffing short irons off the perfect zysoia fairway around the hole & making a ****ton of putts that don't gotta lotta movement (usually one ball left or right from under 15 feet)...basically it's perfect for morikawa's game to win the trophy this week!!

The needs of each position are very different and as you often note, fast twitch muscles can be more important than bulk. Speed kills, especially at WR. What is important first is each player differs as they need to maximize their comparative advantage: a small, fast WR needs to get even faster and more elusive because that is how they are going to beat a DB. A tall, strong WR, needs to work on leaping, strength and securing the ball in traffic and while getting hit, then shedding the tackle, because that is how he is going to beat the DB,

Cornerback is the toughest job in sports because you need to defend all kinds of WRs, you need to keep up with a guy with track speed while backpedaling who knows where the play is going when you don't while also keeping your eye on the QB and your eye out for a run, defend jump balls against taller players and if there is any contact during all this the penalty is on you.

taylor tv update:

a girlfriend of tay just sent her a screen chat of a trailer for tonite's "jesse waters primetime" and that it included part of the clip with her getting interviewed by fox reporter johnny joey jones

funny thing is neither me or any of my kids get our news from the tv (taylor doesn't have a television in her west village walk up) so we're all scrambling (her sister shay just landed in tokyo on her honeymoon & her brother is on a biz trip) tryna figure out how to watch this when it views at 5:00 pm arizona time

Just rewatched 07 Oregon cal. Desean was surprisingly physical, especially second half. Blocking, contested catches.

But still, he had other strengths he could rely on most the time lol

It still saddens me to think about what could have been if Longshore had not been injured near the end of that game.

It was crazy seeing all those guys who would have long nfl careers on one team.

And when Oregon hit longshores ankle, it's crazy to think that basically killed tedford

Potentially two great teams derailed by Longshore injuries, because that 2005 team was also amazing if we didn't have to play Ayoob.

2007 could have been salvaged if he just played Riley instead of a clearly injured Longshore the rest of the way.
And the big "what could have been" for 2005 was if Rodgers knew the Niners weren't going to take him and he came back for his senior year with Marshawn as the starter at RB and a freshman Desean Jackson to haul on his bombs.
