If only that was the case, then it would be easier to swallow. Unfortunately, what he purportedly did went far beyond that. It wasn't rooted in altruism towards JKS, but it didn't seem like it was rooted in vengeance against our program either. Strangely, that just makes it worse IMO.

Thanks. It seems like I drew another erroneous conclusion.
I'm with you 01. I'm not sure what Fernando's "crime" was as the post on the Insider Board was heavily edited before I signed up (and paid for a full year), so all I could do is conjecture from innuendo. What I do know is that Fernando literally sacriiced his body for the team. I'm grateful for the 98 yards and other achievements. The pity is that Wilcox finally got quality offense coaches.

I know most will disagree, but as Fernando has not signed with another team (yet), I think Wilcox should get on his knees and beg him to come back. If Wilcox is offended by this, I can tell him where to go. (In a perfect world, Knowlton would go with him.) I'd rather have Fernando for another year than Wilcox for one (or more) years.


Fernando not coming back. That bridge burned in Dallas….

I know, but I can dream. In the meantime, I would love your sentence if we could replace "Fernando" with "Wilcox."

Did that last year. It helped us move from 6-7 with a challenging schedule to 6-7 with an easier schedule.

Watching Wilcox standing around by himself 30 yards away from the team last night when Ott was trying to motivate the guys was just awful. I can't believe this clown is representing our university.
Like I said before, he lost the team. The players will play for one another but not the coaching staff.
that's why I'm against all this bashing of Mendoza. He's not giving up on Cal, he's giving up on having a meaningful collegiate career with this loser as HC for the foreseeable future
He could have left with grace. He did not.
People who weren't in the room when all of this stuff was happening only know what they are told. My loyalties lie with the guy who drove us 98 yards against our rival over the guy who raised the money so we could get Sam Jackson and Chandler Rogers on the roster. Leaving for a better program is an act of self-preservation.


I tend to believe that when folks like Addison Ooms make the same insinuations that there's some fire behind all the smoke surrounding Mendoza's departure.

Cal did great by Mendoza as far as I'm concerned. We offered him as a two star who was otherwise going to Yale, allowed him a chance to compete for the starting job, gave him the job, and supported him to do well enough that he's considered a top QB in the portal. He should not feel slighted by Rogers coming in given how we lost several QBs following his first year and he quickly secured the job full time. He certainly shouldn't have been entitled to feel anyway about Jackson coming in the previous year.

Again, in what world does a 2 star with a single P5 offer becoming a desired portal QB transfer with early talks about NFL viability show indicate a program that let him down? Our program should be way better than it is but that's Wilcox letting Cal down and not Mendoza specifically.


Thanks for posting. Wilcox offered Mendoza an opportunity to be come a star. Mendoza took that opportunity and succeeded. The problem in my eyes was with the OC. Wilcox should have never hired him. That was Wilcox mistake.

Finally Wilcox made a move to hire a credible OC. Mendoza decided to look elsewhere for a team with an established Coach and OC.

Fair enough. But Wilcox did right by Mendoza. I don't want to hear any gripes from him.
