Just turned the game on, looks about what I would have expected. But no matter, Cal played hard against USC last week, so we should be eternally proud! Or at least that's what I've read all week on this forum.

Ok let's talk about this realistically
Let's say football wins 3 games and basketball gets to 6 wins (seems about right at the moment), would that be enough to get her to consider firing knowlton?
I feel like we would need multiple seasons of that kind of ineptitude for knowlton to get fired. And if that happened, no one (not even sebastabear) is going to be around to see that happen.
I think it has to go beyond wins and losses. It is the fiscal irresponsibility in the contract extensions. It is his misconduct in the McKeever case dismissing reports of abuse and racism from swimmers and their parents then uovingcMcakeever a big raise and contract extension. It is that he is obviously not qualified and in over his head and a bad fit for Cal at this critical time in the history of Cal athletics.
Beavs dicking around or else it'd be much worse too
Don't expect them to try much on offense unless we make it a game.KenBurnski said:

Coach Smith was smart enough to hire Coach M, as his OL coach. He had some strong OL's at Cal. He did Inherit some unbelievable talent, but the kids were fundamentally sound. Smith is smart and understands ORGST., their culture and needs. He has done a great job.
He also has 25 OL on the roster. Brings on lots of big kids as PWOs and gets them in a strength training program and sees what happens. Some guys end up on the DL.
He is an offensive minded coach with a better defense than Wilcox has, all while doing worse in the recruiting rankings.
I can't speak to their recruiting rankings but 7 of their 11 starters on offense are transfers. Coach M is a good OL coach who can't recruit. He is in heaven. Also, 5 of their 11 starters on D are transfers.
This site is so great for expressing recreational disgust about the Bears.
Any team we play knows how to blow us up on a short running down.
Pathetic.
Can you say Troy Taylor and Cal?
Go Bears!
Go Bears!

We stink. We just don't have the players and Wilcox doesn't know how to get them
OSUs players are not significantly better than Cal's. They have been behind us in recruiting rankings. We have 4 star players.
The HUGE difference is in coaching and player development.
Those STAR ratings dont meet the EYE TEST.
The Beavs clearly have a TON MORE TEAM SPEED.
You cant coach that.

Transfers don't count in recruiting rankings and more than half their starters are transfers.

Transfer recruiting is still recruiting. Transferring players don't just show up on the doorstep; they have to be identified, scouted, and recruited.oski003 said:calumnus said:Gkhoury2325 said:

With players now able to transfer without sitting out a year, recruiting transfers is much more important than it used to be, and coaching staffs that don't do a good job of bringing in good transfers to fill needs on their team are falling short in an important component of recruiting.
Looks like Oregon State's staff has done a good job of using the transfer portal to fill needs on their roster.
LETS GOOOOOO
Did our program just turn around?
How are we losing to a dude with a mustache and vacant eyes?

Washington 34 Oregon 34. 3:07 to play. A little more entertaining than this game.
That will help.
Earby is such a stud

I mean…sure. But do you really think Christ can be convinced of those things? Cause if so…he should've been fired by now

Looks like former Cal defensive backs coach Gerald Alexander was let go by the Miami Dolphins earlier this year. Can we rehire him please.

I agree but ignorant posters are comparing high school recruiting ratings although that is now less than half of the recruiting puzzle. The Beavers top players are transfers.

That was insane. Going for it 4th and 1 at your own 33 with 1:30 left in a tie game??? There's aggressive and then there's just plain crazy
Hold the phone, they stuffed Washington who just made a field goal and are kicking off.BearSD said:Ducks are going down -- they just turned it over on downs and gave UW the ball at the Oregon 33.goldenbear1968 said:
