It's easy to make fun of Knowlton...We all know he didn't have a basketball background. But, he was hired by the Chancellor who probably doesn't know (or care) the difference between a watermelon and a basketball. And, then, remember the Chancellor was hired by someone who probably couldn't identify a basketball if he tripped over it. Everything starts at the top....So, if you don't change the anti-athletic mindset at the highest levels, you are just re-arranging the furniture on the Titanic...

Fox appeared very late on the post-game show.
1) We didn't play well enough to win
2) We are going to work very hard in the future
3) We don't know if Kelly is coming back...
4) Go Bears

What was Knowlton's football background?

His education is civil engineering. He spent his career in the Army. His sports background is hockey. He had brief stints at military academies. He did not hire or fire a coach until Cal.

It is tough to make fun of him. He made $175,000 at Air Force and he makes $925,000 a year at Cal with a contract until 2029. That is a huge salary, especially when he outsourced his toughest decision and just hands out raises and extensions like it isn't his money and there is no accountability. If anyone is laughing at anyone, he should be laughing at us.
