1) Sonny at practice and what happened?

2) Is Sonny agreed to his extension?

Anyone? Anyone?

Ha! No one in the press, on Internet boards, or on Twitter want to report actual facts. Just rumour and innuendo.

Comical reported out a tweet from player that Dykes said "things are in the works" to stay on long-term with Cal.

Also South Carolina Sources shot down to Jeff F. that there was any dykes talk.

I think Sonny's failure was not putting out a tweet on this ASAP but I also think that coaches have a hard time understanding the new world of PR in a social media age (and I am not sure I want them focusing on that over meeting with recruits/talking with parents).

I would argue that proper monitoring and control of social media messaging, especially if it relates to the head coach's status at a program, is very much a part of recruiting the current generation of players, who are big users of social media.

Do they all pay attention at practice?
...
Sorry, just a joke.

At least they paid attention for that second half.
...

But seriously, if you are a player, it's the upcoming game that has to matter most to the individual players at this point.

not really a joke ... those who don't pay attention get a lot of seat time (and choice words from coaches)
