You researchers, when was the last time we won by 30 or more? I can't recall the last time...

Any replay of the game? I couldn't watch. Seems like because the game was scheduled late, replays aren't scheduled.

Might be the team is better when not relying and featuring Bradley and GA. Just like last year, the team is improving with coaching.

The team is definitely better when hitting open shots. I thought it was telling that CSUN made the trip by bus from SoCal much like the Bears did on their road trip to Pepperdine. Not to take anything away from Cal because they still executed well, but the bus rides appear to take their toll, and CSUN isn't as bad as they looked yesterday and Cal isn't as bad as they looked against Pepperdine.

Yeah, that's exactly what Fox said after the game. He said it impacted them in the Pepperdine game and seemed to impact CSUN the same way. Seems to be backed up by the fact that CSUN beat Pepperdine last week, too.

Let's hope Seattle U is busing all the way down from WA on Tuesday

Okay, I'm busted. I'd say when it was, but EVERYONE should read the game story. (Proof that I finally did: It was against a conference foe and our coach-at-the-time's initials were CM.)

Grigsby will be pissed when he sees his dads Jersey is not in the rafters.

Don't leave me wondering. Why is his jersey not hanging with the other basketball honorees and celebrities?

Intuit: Maybe it's because he was injured so much...missed tons of games..

Have to agree about the long bus trips. Wins on the road this year will be few and far between.

CSUN replay at 6pm PST.

That may be the best shooting game I've seen Cal have in a long time

What channel? It must be the P12 feed we don't get in the bay area with dish.

---

P12 Bay Area. Yep.

I think saw on a different thread the thought that the team that takes a long bus ride is super flat. We looked sluggish v. UCLA and CSUN definitely didn't possess any kind of body language to be ready to play v. us. Maybe if we do another bus trip we go down a day early to get some rest and get energized. It doesn't explain why we got beat pretty bad v. Pepperdine, but we had no life v. UCLA.

His jersey is retired. It's just not hanging from the rafters, since all the retired jerseys are framed and mounted rather than hanging from the rafters.

---

Which is effing idiotic and says something about the program.

Through multiple AD's no one can act on this. Not important to them.

Maybe they just retired the jersey and not the number. Lol

This. Gary Franklin.

It was a joke when Al Grigsby's number got retired. If perseverance, effort, heart, and soul get your number retired, there are a lot of other deserving Cal basketball players. If it is about contribution, there are plenty of more deserving players.

But the biggest joke of all was that they let Gary Franklin wear it. If you are going to retire a number, retire it. Don't give us this "we retired his jersey" crap they tried to get away with. Don't give us this "we got his blessing" crap. Don't ask for blessing, honor the retirement of the uniform number.

Cal football got the jersey retirement right. Only retire the number of a player who showed he was truly a great player, as well as having good character, who played the end of his Cal career while dying. That's it. A prerequisite to jersey retirement is that you die from something you had while playing, within a few months of the end of your Cal playing career, and you also need to have been a truly great Cal player for at least most of a season. Then nobody ever wears that number again, not even Gary Franklin.
