Christ keeps calling our sports team "Cal" - so much for that working group on branding!

"Very busy" Jim Knowlton was apparently too busy to call key donors.

Pillars of the rebuild:

1. Recruiting- keep the best California players at Cal
2. Aggressive in the transfer portal
3. Recruit nationally/internationally
4. Player development -- just like Phil Jackson talked to Madsen about the triangle offense
5. Style of play- uptempo, fast. Plays to strengths of players
6. Off the court- amazing academics, Cameron Institute
7. Family atmosphere - treat players like his own kids
8. Preparation - nobody will outwork us
9. Staff - is currently finalizing members
10. NIL - Believes Cal is on the path to becoming leader nationally for NIL (and playing by rules). NOT pay to play. Community & youth engagement
11. Admissions - Cal is #1 public school in the world. Thus need to cast a broad net. Talking with admissions to go case by case
12. Past players/coaches - Will connect with them

A vision of hanging banners. A vision of traffic to come watch Cal. A vision of greatness

what a beast!! when he was talking to roxy, the mic picked up what their private convo was, a little bit- loved that he said he wanted to 'stay out' and meet as many people as possible before the media portion. LOVE IT!!!

I'm sure a lot of us connected with what he had to say about becoming fan on those 90s teams. He said he met Kidd, Lamond, Buckley on a recruiting trip. Lamond judged his high school dunk contest. He said the girls at his high school all had crushes on Randy Duck. He recalled his battles against Gonzalez and Lampley. Called out Leon multiple times who's in attendance. LOVED HEARING THIS.

I hope so.

There now is a caption at the bottom ofbthe screen indicating press questions will be covered. Not sure why there is a 20 minute delay

Not trying to get too enamored with Madsen on day 1 but his charisma is off the charts compared to Fox. His candor is so refreshing. Nailed that intro!

Yes. He could come back. Ill let Madsen decide. No comment.
^^. Joel's speed is unbelievable and with better skills development I think he could be a fantastic weapon off the bench or as part of a second unit. Mad Dog could utilize him well. Every team could use a guy who can just get to the rim

I don't think a P5 team will,offer him but we will see,Free throw shooting and over all shooting are a big minus.

Brown's problem was never getting to the rim. It's what he did once he got there.
