Interesting. I'm wondering how many more. I'm also wondering what the conversations are looking like between Madsen and the players.

At least there was no you guys aren't trying hard enough meeting with the coach. Well, at least not caught on video.

exclusive monster 2023/2024 mark madsen roster construction plan:

the ncca allows 13 schollys for men's basketball, last season the roster wuz as follows with new 2023 players in special font:

guards:
devin askew (not a true point guard, coach cal recruited him to kentucky as a 2)
joel brown (in graduate transfer portal, haas biz ad degree)
dejuan clayton (outta eligibility but aarp membership is in his future plans)
jarred hyder (in graduate transfer portal, legal studies degree)
rodney brown (2023 recommitment sharpshooter, alan crabbe is the cal player comparison)

wings:
grant newell (the future of cal basketball)
jalen celestine (apparently healthy & ready to growl again)
sam alajiki (in transfer portal)
obinna anyanwu (got major maturity issues but also athletic upside too)
monty bowser (how do u shoot 92.6% on free throws & 27.3% on 3 pointers?)
marsalis roberson (in transfer portal)

posts:
lars thieman (in graduate transfer portal, nutrition science major)
kuany kuany (in graduate transfer portal, sociology major)
nd okafor (huge athletic upside)
devin curtis (2023 recommitment bouncy post gotta live in the weight room & eat 5 meals a day)

right now coach masden got 6 returning players & 2 2023 recruits for a total of 8 players

point guard utah valley's trey woodbury is not in the transfer portal yet like several of his teammates as he awaits hopefully approval from the ncca for another year of eligiblity due to injury, trey is the #1 priority at the 1 as a j kidd kinda true facilitator/distributor that can knock down free throws with ice in his veins with a physical style of play...stanford's isa silva from sacramento is also a possibility as is joel brown returning as a locker room leader/potential back up role

at the post utah valley's aziz bandaogo & texas tech (played the previous year to thi season at utah valley) fardaws aimaq are elite talents, either one could lead the pac 12 in rebounding next season but will the necessary nil dollars be fundraised?...if both could somehow be signed to play together as a 4 & 5, then the bears would be a 20+ win ncca team next year...bet
2023 roster updated for marsalis robertson entering the transfer portal without a berkeley degree

fully expect another undergrad to enter the transfer portal which will be announced soon

I'm sorry to see him go. His mother is a wonderful member of the Cal administrative staff (though she is a UCLA grad).

obinna should never been recruited to berkeley by fox...while driving impaired in high school with his buddies he crashed & while fleeing the accident was sideswiped by another car & seriously injured...all of his major offers disappeared except for cal...last season he continued to struggle with maturity issues including academics

good luck to anyawu moving forward, will be interesting to see where he ends up

Hey Shocky, can you do a public service announcement and ask people not to reply to your posts as a quote? This has nothing to do with the quality of your posts but the fact that they are high quality and quite long. Each quoted response makes my phone want to explode.

Go Bears!

I'm of Coach Prime's mindset here: if you were part of a losing environment that struggled to get 3 wins last season, go ahead and jump in the portal!

totally agree that a lot of the guys realistically should move on! Maybe joel for me is the exception. I think he's a weapon with his speed, and I liked a lot of what madsen said about playing fast and maximizing players' strengths. I could see him doing really well under Madsen (especially if we hire a great shooting coach)

I would temper that. This is not Colorado and these guys do not have NBA careers ahead of them. They should probably stay on the team be good teammates and get Cal degrees. However, if they are looking to start or even get significant playing time, chances are probably better at a lower level.

These guys are and will remain Golden Bears. I can't imagine now horrible the last few years have been. Matt Bradley said he almost quit the sport and quit school to go get a job. They are welcome to stay if they want to, but they have to know that they may ride the pine a lot.

Good point! If you must quote it's not hard to trim the quote, especially using View Source (page icon on the right side).

I agree. Makes reading posts very difficult.

There are times to quote a post, particularly if you want to make sure the OP doesn't edit their original post after the fact. But using the quote feature is unnecessary in most cases.

Not to mention the replication of each post multiple times no doubt is causing global warming, particularly when coupled with all the cat images on the internet.

I think all of your expectations are too high. Shocky doesn't have time to edit! He's busy golfing, rescuing, yogaing, taking selfies with curvy brunettes and occasionally boosting Cal BBall and engaging with the community

He's sorta the anti-Mark Fox.

I get what you're saying. I was trying to artfully send a message to everybody else to stop using the quote button when all one needs to do is hit the reply button. Because Shocky's posts are perfect examples for my point I singled him out, but he is far from the problem or the solution. Since Shocky appears to have some thick skin I thought I could use him as a foil in reaching his adoring followers. I like reading others viewpoints, but it gets tiring trying to scroll through endless quoting of posts I already read 10 times. When I say my phone wants to blow up I am only half kidding. I seriously think that my phone can't quite find the last post I read leaving me to find where I left off. The reality is that boards like this become more of a black hole where people post, they get a few responses, but the vast majority of traffic has taken an off-ramp because of the "features" of the board that limit the pleasurable experience. I equate it to the football atmosphere in the 80's which has been replaced more recently with piped in music. One still thinks they're having a game experience but at the same time they don't know how much better it could really be.

6'11" 245 lbs texas tech grad transfer portal super senior with 1 year of remaining eligiblity fardaws aimaq is a key target for coach madsen along with his friend/former utah vally teammate trey woodbury (who is awaiting approval notification from the ncca for his appeal for another season due to an injury 2 years ago that caused him to miss a year)

fardaws started his career at mercer, played a season & then redshirted a year after transferring to utah valley state where he blew up winning the wac player of the year award & also leading the nation in rebounds with 15+ per game...aimaq declared for the nba draft in 2022 & ultimately transferred to texas tech (with mark's approval, he really does put his player's best interests 1st) where he averaged 11.1 ppg & 7.9 rpg before a 11th game injury derailed his season

check out the athleticisim & innate sense for the game in this utah valley playing clips, gotta love the alley oop beautiful lobs, that's just good coaching too


like shareef abdur rahim who wuz attracted to berkeley because of its muslim community, fardaws (who is muslim) is also considering a move to the diverse & beautiful san francisco bay area...aimaq wuz born & grew up in vancouver, his dad faramarz is from afghanistan and moved to germany & then canada to avoid the soviet-afghan war

coach madsen got 4 strong hoopers returning in grant newell, jalen celestine, devin askew & nd okafor, the potential additions of elite talent in fardaws aimaq & trey woodbury could be the right infusions of talent to create a team that is well coached (a false narrative often repeated on this board is that mark fox wuz a strong development/gameday mind, that's not even close to reality) & that plays together with a much faster pace of play & fiery intensity kinda like their new head coach...if this roster is assembled which will require nil dollars, then the bears will compete for potentially 18+ wins next season

the university of california, berkeley=#1 ranked public university in the world
as shared by the monster a week ago, fardaws aimaq is gonna follow his old head coach madsen to their new home in the san francisco bay area & still fully expect fardaws' close friend trey woodbury to be the point guard for the upcoming season subject to ncca approval of his current appeal for another season of eligilbity

and under new conditions we are not alone

Hey Shocky, thanks for all of the great information, things are very exciting and interesting these days in Bear Territory.

By any chance, is there a timeline as to when to expect a decision from the NCAA regarding Woodbury's eligibility?

Thanks Big C, good to be back. I've continued to follow the program, but I definitely took a break from message boards and following like I used to. I can't remember the last time I was this excited / interested in what was going on. I always try to stay cautiously optimistic and realistic with expectations, and I believe coach Madsen has his work cut out for him as he tries to turn things around here. It may take a little longer than most of us hope, but I definitely have more true optimism long-term than I've felt in a while.

with so many open roster spots and the right donor support, this can turn around quickly.

what up lou lou lemon?

trey woodbury is an alpha male physical as **** point guard that plays with a style similar to j kidd in his ability to make all his teammates look good but also impose his will late in games with ice in his veins with moneyball free throws

the reason trey is not in the portal is because at this exact moment he's outta eligibility for college basketball

but he's got an appeal for another year of eligibility from 2 seasons ago that is expected (but not a 100% done deal) to be approved by the ncca, one of the few upsides of the new college landscape is that the ncca isn't tryna anymore restrict player movement anymore

this deal needs to get done quickly to ensure the bears gotta elite facilitator/distributor at the 1, his good friend fardaws aimaq would not have committed to the bears if this wuz not the case...the chemistry & sense of where each other is on the court is special, just watch the magnificent post interior lob alley oop passes over the top

but plz note all of this is my opinion & 100% made up based upon shocky's kinda overly stimulated imagination which got no resemblance to real life, got it?

reality is for 50 cent losers (underdog on top)#

jermarl baker's official visit to berkeley circa 2016 is reported as follows by cal's monster class:
https://bearinsider.com/forums/8/topics/28431/33



it's 5:30 pm at haas pavilion & unlike the crooked azz free throw shooting cal basketball team shocky is practicing his free throws at the north basket at haas pavilion while coach jones is playing horse at the south basket with one of the smooth shooting dads while other coaches walk in & out of newell court

at 5:40 pm the horse game at the other end of the court concludes with handshakes & fist bumps

at 5:45 pm juhwan harris dyson & jemarl baker enter haas pavilion in jeans & t-shirts & start shooting around at the south basket...this is my 1st time viewing them & both appear to actually be their reported 6'4" heights...at one point juhwan's ball rolls down to my end of my court & i'm tempted to ask him "where you live?" to see if he will point at the berkeley hills but don't do that, recruits & donors can never interact, the cal basketball program is a clean program that does things the right way so i keep my mouth shut...a couple of times i catch them watching me as i'm watching them

*****juhwan harris dyson is a freak athlete with a high motor...the spider fly moves effortlessly with tremendous length, he will be a lockdown pac 12 defender...he is only 16 years old & is coltish in appearance, he will become an absolute beast in coach christopher's world class s&c program...juhwan's perimeter shot is inconsistent at this time, he falls back (not vertical) a bit when shooting the 3 pointer, coach webster will definitely coach him up on his form

*****jemarl baker is draining 3 pointers a couple of feet behind the college 3 point line, he literally has nba range right ******* now...i got goosebumps watching him stroke one moneyball 3 pointer after another, his shooting form is steph like with elevation & balance along with a consistent release point...cal fans are gonna love watching jemarl let it fly, the ball soars thru the haas airspace with a perfect arc before softly dropping thru the rim...physically baker is not ready to defend elite pac 12 2s like tyler dorsey of oregon & allonzo trier of arizona as he would be abused at the point of attack with his skinny frame in the bears man on man d scheme, gaining strength along with good weight will be a priority in baker's development into an all pac 12 player/all american candidate

at 6:00 pm juhwan & jemarl along with their parents & families, the cal staff (including roberta martin) head out to catch golf carts aka the uber helicopter up to memorial stadium for the 7:30 pm kick off...coach martin comes over to ask what's up but i know he's only probably doing it because roberta told him to be nice to me for a change

yeah, the california golden bears were dead last in the pac 12 in free throws so the shockster stayed behind to shoot more free throws in an empty haas pavilion with the basketball echoing on the floor, not ever gonna be outworked that's for sure...haas pavilion is my palace, where is your palace?

couple of tidbits:

*****there is a program awareness/point of emphasis that the offense "needs to run thru ivan" this season, lob/entry passes to all the bigs including kam & the king should be more common this season than the unicorn sightings last season

*****jabari bird has had a "tremendous summer" & is ready to take the next step forward for an outstanding senior season & show nba scouts he got a motor that don't turn off

*****charlie moore is "tough", "moves like a waterbug", "an absolute game changer" & is "shifty with amazing changes in direction" with a high basketball iq...keep hearing comparisons to tyler ulis

*****marcus lee is "a tremendous addition" to the program with his kentucky work ethic, he's making young ivee a better player

cal's all the way up class (2017)#

yeah jermarl baker wuz a mcdonalds all american verbal commit (later flipped to kentucky, arizona & wake forest) & frenchman olivier sarr wuz a silent commit (later flipped to wake forest & kentucky), dumb azzs will repeat their uninformed false narrative that coach martin left the cupboard empty but the reality is that we wuz reloading in berkeley with the nation's #1 class with kentucky transfer marcus lee, the porter brothers (michael porter jr wuz the #1 ranked player in the 2017 class) along with jemarl & olivier, none of these guys wanted to play for wyking

jemarl's shooting stroke is 100% poetry, it's got pure shooting mechanics & flow better than anybody on the bears roster since cal's monster class & now he's in the transfer portal with 1 year of remaining eligibility

dumb ***** (easy to spot, they intentionally misspell cuonzo's name like a racist) will tell u baker never reached his potential but they fail to realize that if coach martin & his team (which includes me as the director of recruiting/gameday energy, that's why i wuz shooting baskets alone on the opposite end of haas on his official visit) had stayed the course jemarl would've balled out in berkeley & imho been an all american

jemarl's development has been hindered by a series of injuries (note my comment above re: his "skinny frame"), coach nicodemus christopher (who believes in the value of yoga/meditation unlike football s&c coach brian johnson, our yoga battles with jaylen brown wuz epic ) would've gotten his body nba strong/flexible like he did with jaylen, the bird & t-wall

jermarl baker is the real deal & if u ask him where he live, he's gonna point to the hills

coach madsen is targeting shooters & scorers in rebuilding the roster, his #1 target at guard is explosive/dynamic jalen cone who is a portal transfer from northern arizona university that is projected to take an official visit to berkeley this month

jalen averaged 17.6 ppg with a lethal 40.0% on 3 pointers & 86.2% on free throws, as a true freshman at virginia tech the walkertown north carolina native shot an unreal 45.7% on 3 pointers

as a guest of my golf buddy mr silverleaf sun angel (runs the asu nil program) the shockster wuz on the floor last november watching the jacks play the sun devils in tempe, cone is a +1 athlete that wuz noticeably quicker than the ncca tournament asu guards...he is not 6', he is kinda a scoring guard in a point guard body's but his ability to create separation is elite



just got off the phone with another golf buddy of mine (my summer golf club is in flagstaff, 7000+ elevation) who is a skyjacks booster, say jalen is a high character academically focused young man that got a beautiful 4 year old daughter ivy faithe cone, needless to say nil dollars will be a key factor in this recruitment which has nationwide offers including west coast interest from stanford, santa barbara & san diego state

jalen cone got the ability/upside to go off for 40+ points on gamedays, for a team that struggled to score 50 points per game last season that's kinda important...nau played utah valley twice last season, coach madsen is very aware of jalen's skillset & potential value to the 2023 california golden bears

get buckets#

the university of california, berkeley=#1 ranked public university in the world (a 50 year decision with the opportunity to build family generational wealth both on & off the court)

I've seen Cone a number of times...while he is under 6', he has one of the highest release points on his jumper that I've seen in a long time....he can fly and uses that ability to get his shot off against taller opponents....Not a great passer or defender but can definitely score....Last time I checked the team that puts the ball in the hoop the most wins....
