That’s his second TD of the afternoon, this one a 45-yd reception 💯

virginia cavaliers 34
north carolina wolfpack 8

the cavs (1-0) offense centered around journeyman (penn state & memphis) qb1 beau pribula who can make plays with both his arm (highly efficient 9 of 11 passing for 155 yards, no picks) & legs (15 carries for 110 yards) but let's see how he fares against tougher competition

the pack (0-1) lost a lotta NFL talent on both sides of the ball & it showed up particularly with candy azz soft defensive/offensive lines & wide receivers/tight ends that couldn't create separation which resulted in talented qb1 cj bailey getting his azz handed to him (an anemic 11 of 23 dinky passes for 84 yards & 1 pick)

memphis tigers 27

this game turned for the rebs (0-1) when former 4.0 gpa cal recruit center austin boyd (played right tackle last season) got rolled up & his replacement couldn't get the job done up the middle with multiple sacks...the tigers also gotta lotta late game pressure off the edges as former bear now right tackle jackson brown (lacks quick twitch reflexes) got used more than a callaway top golf rental driver

rb1 jai'den thomas will be potentially the most DYNAMIC/EXPLOSIVE running back the bears face all season & a SPY will need to be assigned to playmaking qb1 jackson arnold to limit his running opportunities which will also be the case with the ucla & virginia quarterbacks

if the bears defensive backs are the TAKERS, then the rebels defensive backs are the GIVERS with poor coverage (safety jake pope is a nightmare tackling machine) fundamentals (lack of ball awareness compounded by deficient closing speed) against a mid tigers qb1's downfield vertical passing attack, coach ike's room gotta opportunity to show out at the nfl allegiant stadium...let's drop 50 jaron!!

interesting uc championship game analysis, this prognosticator is predicting a ucla victory

https://instagr.am/p/DPRouVfD4G-
^ berkeley application to the uc flagship university (and #1 ranked public university in the WORLD) redirected to westwood & that's ok, there's really no shame in a ucla degree (plus there's always the possibility for a cbyf1 to date & marry a berkeley, stanford or ivy league grad in the future!!)

what is missing from mr backwards cap take on the upcoming 9/5/26 EPIC battle??

ucla had arguably the worst offensive line among the power 4 conferences last season which wuz the key factor in a 3-9 record & head coaching change...yeah eugene brooks is solid at left guard but there's still 4 new untested (at the p4 level) bruins o-linemen...if they don't hold up, nico & the skillz players are ******

defensively this guy is apparently unaware that the team's biggest weakness is the defensive line, that the starting corners/nickels are all undersized (around 5'10" 175 lbs) & of my strongly held opinion that edges/outside linebacker coach vic so'oto (while a good guy) is a terrible developer of talent...the bears ability to run/pound the ball (particularly if the wideouts actually physically BLOCK for the 1st time in a decade) against the bruins will be apparent from the 1st series with jaron directly under center when shocky strokes the **** out after a PITCHOUT sends adam OFF TO THE RACES!!

make no mistake about it, nico is a very good college football player, JKS is a generational talent & potentially the #1 pick in the 2028 NFL DRAFT!!



yeah the newly incorporated monsterloseurazz.com is no longer posting odds on this game, we'll see u at memorial stadium sat nite with the seagulls flying above from further afar!!

collin morikawa: currently ranked #11 in the world despite playing injured since the player's is a remarkable testament to my fellow hopa/hopa poly brah's MENTAL DETERMINATION (excuses are for ******* losers!!)

michael kim: currently ranked #63 in the world, an unreal FANTASTIC ascension for MR 59, will compete next in asheville & will later defend his 2025 dp tour victory in paris, luv this guy!!

max homa: currently ranked #77 in the world, max rediscovered his driving accuracy in 2026 (adios 2 way miss off the tee) & much more importantly is no longer the worst ******* dresser on the pga tour with his ugly as **** mastercard ketchup & mustard logo on his shirt collar!!

byeong hun an: currently ranked #204 in the world, ben threw away his pga tour card for the dirty liv money & the opportunity to "grow the game in south korea," now he's ****** with no tour status anywhere for 2027

ziqin zhou: fully expect Z to climb the pga university rankings this upcoming season!!

sihao cong & trevor cox: relentlessly improving coming off confidence building us amateurs at merion plus trevor with a 64 this week!!

xihuan chang: X got as much upside as anybody as any cali bear on planet earth!!

callixte alzas: mon ami shot a ******* unreal bogey free 67 at the nicklaus designed ruby hills (76.1 course rating from the tips) this week!!

Tomorrow is a huge day for Cal Golf. Their annual fundraiser at Lake Merced (recently redone by Gil Hanse) at a time when the Bears are on the cusp of returning to national relevance.

What? So you're not a fan of Coach Wilson? I get it on the not wanting to play slow rounds, but I thought you loved Cal golf? Is it that big of an imposition to ride around in a cart on a four hour round in order to support a school and a program that needs your help?

I have to say I'm disappointed.

jkslei (i think i know who u are & that's ok u choose to post anonymously), let me break it down for u in case u haven't figured it out yet, since the unilateral termination of cal's monster class which wuz initiated/supported by "insiders" & athletic dept employees shocky wuz FIRED from his relentless quest to bring a men's hoops national championship to berkeley

and that wuz painfully disappointing to me (the monster has been to only 2 games in the last decade at haas since he got walked to his car after attending 100+ consecutive home/road games in a row as the de facto men's hoops general manager)

as one very heartfelt door got closed/slammed on me, other doors opened up

these days shocky views cal athletics thru a very different lens, he's honestly more passionate about our cali bears pga golfers & his philanthropic fundraising work is focused on rescue animal advocacy/fundraising in maricopa county, both pursuits honestly can NEVER pull the football on me again

plus them doggy dogs love giving me wet juicy KISSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^ and no, the monster does NOT want a kiss from ELITE taker quimari shemwell!!

the future is unknowable, my views might change in the future as we all evolve

everybody should do what they want in life, rule #1 of successful fundraising is never tell other people (unless they be ur children) how to spend their money, u feel me brah??

this is a tremendous talent acquisition for the program in hiring ben as the director of recruiting operations (previously held by marshall cherrington who is now the assistant general manager) as the berkeley grad is likeable & will be relentlessly building authentic relationships alongside benji with high gpa student athlete prospects with ELITE football upside!!

last offseason ron rivera interviewed with the phoenix cardinals for the head coaching position, a sr executive/golf buddy of mine with the cards tole me (which wuz reported in real time on this thread) that ron wuz not a serious final candidate & wuz a rooney rule affirmative action interview...but coach lup needs an organizational plan in place if rivera finds the right NFL opportunity this next offseason at which point marshall cherrington would ascend to general manager with berkeley grads chief of staff (recruiting) benji palu & ben hawk schrider already in place in charge of recruiting, got it??

coach lup is surrounding himself with berkeley grads including andrew mcgraw in KEY roles, coach madsen might wanna take note of this strategy

the cal women's soccer team is now 0-2-2 on the season after losing to an excited low mid major program (with minimal financial resources unlike cal) kinda like softball, volleyball, lacrosse, field hockey, cross country & track & field that are basically uncompetitive under the FAILED leadership of non berkeley grad JENNIFER SIMON-O'NEIL

the women's hoops team despite generational marketable talent lulu "let it fly" twidale is making no inroads in selling tixs or increasing the fan base particularly among the critically needed student body despite a FUN team that won 21 games last season, that's just an utter failure of an inept marketing department aka the rebranded strawberry creek studios that is incapable of competing in today's 6 second attention span economy at a time that the valkyries are SOLD OUT on gamedays with 18,046 new fans for the wnba expansion franchise (which got highly effective innovative targeted marketing at previously ignored consumer sectors *lgbt)

shocky may be unfairly evaluated by modern yoga as a substitute teacher17 (syt17) for multiple bull**** reasons such as an inability to do a handstand (not to be confused with a headstand), no visible tattoos (or maybe even no tattoos at all??), no ponytail (man bun), lack of the 900+ hours teacher certification (the monster gotta berkeley degree, shouldn't that ******* count for something??) etc. and so forth but the bearinsider.com (kudos to greg richardson for making this info FREE) this week got an unofficial DEPTH CHART for the uc championship showdown that aligns with the monster's staff feedback (appears veteran chase meyer will be k1 & that the wildly talented jae'on young (too undersized last season as a true freshman, couldn't bench 90 lbs) is gonna be a cb1 this saturday nite at memorial stadium):

https://instagr.am/p/DBxCMl2y_NI
so during dinner mr j-o stops by our table & kindly gifts us both tara iti dark blue with a small white ferry tern (an endangered bird in nz) logo t-shirts which shocky wears to modern yoga all the time now, it's a fabulous brand & our cali bears in the above gram look like straight up ******* ballers (this is the best looking gear in the history of cal athletics, no cap)!!

footnote: while the tom doak designed tara iti (founded by beverly hills private equity investor billionaire ric kayne) is uber private, the adjacent public te'arai south course (also a world top 100 course designed by coore & crenshaw with half the holes along the heartbreaking beautiful beaches/coastline) will be hosting the 2026 asia pacific amateur this upcoming october 29-november 1st...it's expected that ziqin zhou & xihuan chang will be competing, the winner of this prestigious amateur tournament receives invitations to both the 2027 masters & 2027 british open!!
