Many of us Cal fans will be excited to hear that Brendan Bigelow rumored to be fully recovered from his knee injuries participated in RB drills and 7v7 & 11v11 sessions. He was wearing a brace on his right knee (reportedly as a precautionary measure), and while he didn't look to be fully 100% yet, he showed flashes of the speed and moves that made him such a heralded recruit.

Maynard looked solid, and appears to be the clear #1 at this point. He often took snaps out of the shotgun, and his mobility is as advertised several times he escaped oncoming rushers and turned possible sacks into positive gains, even diving once for a first down. He has a live arm he regularly hit receivers in stride, and clearly has uncanny chemistry with his brother Keenan Allen. Case-in-point: on one play during 11v11s, Zach hit Keenan perfectly on a quick-slant, which Keenan caught in full stride then turned upfield for a 70-yard run-after-catch TD.
