^ thx for posting hoop dreams (fellow haas biz school grad), the person in the 1st seat (left in the foto) next to the announcer's table at midcourt on the floor is doug goldman & it appears to me that he's animatedly conversing with chancellor finalist richard lyonsQuote:Mad dog w a post game speech as Tyson gets interviewed !

fun fact: doug goldman (berkeley's largest donor family, levi strauss haas legacy, the key to fundraising for a basketball practice facility) sat midcourt at thursday's game with chancellor finalist richard lyons...based upon my conversation with doug at the game i attended during the preseason it does not seem likely a lead donation will happen until knowlton is gone which wuz hopefully also directly communicated to lyons
**** is moving in the right direction
the haas of pain (thrives on student noise & energy)#
arizona just fired athletic director david heeke, the only move forward to prevent the cal athletic department from also running into an existential financial iceberg is terminating james arthur knowlton, his evil as **** sidekick jennifer simon-o'neil, the non transparent cfo tom lowry (his philosophy is let's borrow tens of millions of dollars from the central campus that will never have future revenues for repayment) & the obstinate markeisha everrett (who to her credit might be coming around to offering FREE tixs for all basketball & football games)
hoops foto shows significantly more students both at center court & also behind the south basket, hopefully they will return in numbers (and bring along their classmates from the #1 ranked public university in the world) this friday nite at haas pavilion for the 7:00 pm tip off against stanford
the magic of cal basketball (cannot happen without student noise & energy)#
