Posts keep including Treggs in the mix.<br />Is he a lock??

<blockquote><div class="name-said">edg64;639009 said:</div><hr>Posts keep including Treggs in the mix.<br />Is he a lock??<hr></blockquote><br /><br />Won't be official until signing day, but all indications are yes.<br /><br />For example, his current Twitter profile says "Athlete and Public figure. Nationally ranked football recruit and committed to The University of California. #Cal gang or die #GoBears #Trigga  #BOOM." Gotta like the sound of that.

<blockquote><div class="name-said">calumnus;639003 said:</div><hr>OK--then replace him with Ladner, Wark, or Rodgers. Not worried yet.<hr></blockquote><br /><br /> I prefer to project with knowns and we have only one receiver who's caught meaningful passes for next year. The others are tight ends. It's impossible to predict how Treggs (should he come) will adjust to D1 football. Everyone thought Bigelow and Moala would step right in and dominate, yet they didn't. Face it, there are huge questions and real concerns about our receiving corps with lots of inexperience.

Remember, Djax made his mark as a freshman more as a punt returner than a receiver. It takes at least one year at this position to find your way for most kids. Amazing the growth we saw from KA this season. Woods and Lee at USC are amazing talents and were also playing with a top five pick QB. That makes it easier for a kid to adapt when the ball is put on the numbers play in and play out. Like the way Maynard came along this season but he's never going to be that kind of passer.<br /><br />Hope Treggs is the man and Bouza can be our possession receiver. Then we just have to hope we stay healthy. This season was the healthiest season we have had in years. Might be the hardest thing we have to repeat next year!

<blockquote><div class="name-said">kasaja;639050 said:</div><hr>Remember, Djax made his mark as a freshman more as a punt returner than a receiver.<hr></blockquote><br /><br />I think that had a lot more to do with Ayoob's failure to adjust to D-I than DeSean's.

His big year as a PR was his soph year. Desean had 600 yards receiving and 7 TDs as a true frosh which is pretty good - on par with Marvin's soph year and just about 150 fewer yards than Marv has had each of the last 2 years.

I don't remeber Desean returning punts until his sophomore year. Instead, he made his mark as a WR from his very first game as a true freshman.

<blockquote><div class="name-said">dchu101;639024 said:</div><hr>That's what they said about Ragland.<br /><br />Here's hoping Clay gets back.<hr></blockquote><br /><br />Ragland has full intent in returning, if the coaches still let him. Hes often wearing Cal gear.

Better than the Boston Market??

i hope you are right. Tell him, "walk the walk," and get himself back in solid standing.

<blockquote><div class="name-said">Cal_Fan2;639071 said:</div><hr>That is good to hear but I was somewhat under the impression that Siddoway was probably coming back but not Ragland...maybe I have them switched...<hr></blockquote><br /><br />I talked to Siddoway at the end of October, after one of the games at Butte JC, he didn't sound too interested in returning to Cal which is really too bad, he did mention some the colleges that are pursuing him. He mentioned Iowa state, Pitt, Rutgers, and San Diego state. I believe Ragland will be attending Cal for sure even if the coaches did not want him back. But he's definitely going to need Blaquez, he looks about 270 at best.

One of many Cal tweets by Treggs (just posted tonight):<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />@BryceTreggs:<br /><br />I'm not gonna want to leave Cal after my official. I wish I enrolled early like @zachklineqb

At the risk of getting blasted for bringing up ancient history, what happened with Carter?

<blockquote><div class="name-said">Polo Bear;639251 said:</div><hr>At the risk of getting blasted for bringing up ancient history, what happened with Carter?<hr></blockquote><br /><br />Football wasn't his passion.

I have no problem seeing KA, Harris, Treggs, and Bouza as the top four WR's next year, with Hagan, Ladner, and Wark at TE. There is probably room for at least one more freshman to play at WR with these four as well...

Who were furds wrs this year? This is where coaches have to earn some pay. Plenty of teams arecreating match up problems by using TEs split out. Starting with KA isnt bad- most teams don't have one of him. Harris has potential, fr will have to step up, will have to use TEs. But unlike start to this year, we have experienced QB and should have strong run game. Its always something, but Clay hadn't done anything yet anyway to have counted on him.

That kind of matters.

<blockquote><div class="name-said">goldenjax;639068 said:</div><hr>Ragland has full intent in returning, if the coaches still let him. Hes often wearing Cal gear.<hr></blockquote><br />And I do hope Ragland makes his way back. But when he left the program the word was he could be back last spring or for this season. A year later he's still at San Mateo. I hope Clay makes his way back too, but you never know.

well that sucks, he's been a beast for me in NCAA in his junior and senior years :P

<blockquote><div class="name-said">vrabbit;672365 said:</div><hr>well that sucks, he's been a beast for me in NCAA in his junior and senior years :P<hr></blockquote><br /><br />My vote for randomest resurrection of an old thread at the randomest time with no new news to spur such a resurrection :p<br /><br />Interestingly, looking back at the posts in this thread, its funny how txwr refers to our top 4 next year as including Bouza ... now 2 months later, we're looking at 4 and 5 star freshmen potentially starting. Amazing.

<blockquote><div class="name-said">oskiwow;638844 said:</div><hr>Too bad - could really use him next year.

Mostly LSJU was going with one-receiver sets, especially after losing Uwusu. For most of the season, Stanford's top three receivers were tight ends. That was the point, if we don't have WRs, play tight ends or RBs.<br /><br />Of course, to do that, we have to have tight ends and we seem be even weaker there than at returning WR.<br /><br />Fortunately we will have some great incoming freshman WRs to complement Allen. Hopefully we go to a more simplified passing system to allow those frehsman WRs (and maybe QB?) to make plays.

Back to the future.

This is an uniformed thread I believe....<br /><br />It is my understanding that Clay is at JC working to get himself eligible and back in school.<br /><br />Also understand Clay to still be close with players and the team.
