Air raid offense is a gimmick. It will never succeed.

Fire Sonny! On Wisconsin!

Groovy advice.

No worries. The carpet bagger will leave Fort Worth/TCU by February 2023. Mark my words!

Im saying 19-30 is a disingenuous way to portray his ability as a coach - at Cal, or his potential to win more at Cal or his ability as a coach in general. Was a misfit apparent at Cal? Yes by all accounts, but it is clear it became a very mutual feeling and Cal pulled the plug first.

Segregating the worst season in Cal history from the rest of Sonny's tenure warps the decision to fire him into something less justified than it was. If you go 1-11 then you'd better do some incredibly impressive work after that or you deserve to be canned. Obviously that incredibly impressive work was never delivered.

2013 happened and ever since then there's been campaign by Sonny's admirers to pardon him for it or otherwise exclude it from the conversation over how bad he was here. His record at Cal was 19-30 and he justly merited being fired for it and the worst four years of defense ever played here, to say nothing of the obvious fact that he didn't want to be here.

Cal pulled the plug first only because all of his efforts to find a new home failed. He kept looking for a new position but found no takers.

Part of the so called defense of Sonny's record is the context of our abject HC problems and the idea that We or the AD or the Admins have an objective sense of who to choose, how to judge performance, how to incentivize performance and accountability. If we want to throw everything that Dykes represents into the single dust bin labeled 19-30 then that is all we will ever learn from it.
