like jaylen hands, jalen hill is also trying out for the usa u16 team...hill is the recipient of an offer from coach martin & is a key priority target for cal's touch the sky class (2017)


jalen is a 6'9" 205 lbs mobile big from corona's centennial high school (which has recently built a pipeline with sonny dykes & the bears football team) & the compton magic aau team

hill's dad george (6'8") starred at kansas state back in the day & his son already has size 15 feet and is expected to grow to 6'10"+

like jaylen, jalen will also be an arizona & ucla recruiting battle for cal...in the old days those battles would be lost but right now the california golden bears are the most talked about & hottest team nationwide in college basketball

them 2017 bears are gonna touch the sky at the #1 ranked public university in the world

this is cal basketball#

---

congrats to jalen hill on being named to the presitigous under 16 usa basketball team along with fellow californian jordan brown

they will be joined by former cal silent commit jaylen nowell (related to travis decuire) of garfield high school in the seattle area

look, i'm in pretty good shape: i walk 100+ golf rounds a year (golf carts are for fat boys), work on my yoga practice 5 times a week, swim whenever it gets hot outside & hike them rescue dogs up the mountain every day


so this week i got totally waxed for the 1st time at the lunch box in scottsdale


waxing for men (which isn't painful at all unless you are candy azz soft) reveals the pluses & minuses of one's physique without hair covering up the truth

so you can imagine my anger when my teenage daughters shay & taylor along with my current 1st wife kat told me after seeing my hairless chest that i got the initial stages of man boobs


so how did i respond to that criticism?

did i kick all them dumb azz bitches to the curb?...no, of course not, that did not happen

at the end of the day, i'm a ******* problem solver...i spoke to my mentors anton the yoga guru, lisa my strong handed masseuse (i get 2 deep tissue body work massages a week) & dr cray cray

so here's the plan: more push ups & rowing curls, reduction of sugars & food products with soy including tofu (tough break there) & new multivitamins without vitamin e (estrogen)

pretty clear i'm gonna be working my azz off, what are them returning california golden bears accomplishing this summer after a mediocre 18-15 season (7-11 in the pac)?

[SIZE=5]ESPN:[/SIZE]

[SIZE=4]California found a way to crack the code in 2015, becoming the only school in the country to land two top-10 players and finishing No. 5 nationally...the Golden Bears made a splash
Jaylen Brown (No. 4) was lured all the way from Georgia, choosing Cal over the likes of Kentucky, Kansas, Michigan and UCLA. Ivan Rabb (No. 8) decided to stay home in Northern California, instead of leaving for Arizona, which previously had a stranglehold on the elite players from the Oakland Soldiers AAU program.[/SIZE]

dk is the consummate team player unselfishly playing out of position this season & is an amazing student athlete with an eye on the future...mark my words, kravish is gonna be a multi millionaire, a terrific husband & father, and a true friend to those close to him with his giving spirit...dave & debra kravish gotta be pretty proud of their son


the cal basketball experience extends far beyond playing basketball on the basketball court with a basketball...unlike basketball factories like arizona that leave their ballers undereducated & poorly prepared for the future once they leave tucson, the #1 public university in the world successfully prepares its graduates for life's many challenges & opportunities

david, you are a special person & i'm gonna yell my azz off for you on sunday...and yeah, i'll probably go to one of your concerts in the future too, who knew that you're also the lead singer for st lucia?...if you play this song at your upcoming summer wedding to ashton pohlman, i'll feel like i've accomplished something (kim k dumping that sorry azz kayne for me isn't gonna count) with this dumb azz cal's monster class thread

*will graduate/graduated from cal joining 2012 grads bak bak, brandon smith & robert thurman

cal fans can expect every player listed above to either leave cal with a degree and/or a nba contract..patrick christopher, justin cobbs & richard solomon all have around one remaining semester of schoolwork necessary to earn their cal degrees...as the wise marco harris once told me, men take care of their business

of the 300+ ncaa d1 bb teams, cal is among the most academically elite programs along with stanford and the ivy leagues most noteably harvard

the above is the MOST IMPORTANT stat sheet in cal basketball



this is the difference between basketball factories that use up & then discard their workers (leaving them unemployable on the streets) in today's highly competitive global economy and legitimate collegiate institutions of higher learning with an academic purpose...if you go to an academically mediocre school like kentucky or arizona & get injured you are ******

academic ambition is a beautiful thing, it will open doors in business after your basketball days are over & help you meet the girl of your dreams (and you're not thinking about it now but it will also help you raise intellectually curious children someday)...you can be limitless mentally



don't be a dumb azz#

let's do this



breaking news, the cal basketball program's rolling 4 year apr (academic performance record) is rising a remarkable 15 points from 939 to 954...thank you mike montgomery & travis decuire (td was responsible for the team's academic progress) for turning around the academic fortunes of our student athletes, that is far more important than any basketball games you won on the basketball court with a basketball

it can also be shared that the recently concluded school year ended with the "best semester academically in many years for the men's basketball team"...them bears are making steady progress towards basketball learning specialist jennifer hunter's (she got good wheels like beyonce) stated goal she told me at the basketball banquet of a team gpa of 3.00 or higher...congrats to dr derek van rheenen & dr karsa sotudeh and your hard working staff at the athletic study center for making this happen

the days of criminal dana altman & his henchman tony stubblefield being able to negatively recruit against cal telling parent(s) that your son won't graduate from cal, that he will most likely flunk out are over...when a manipulative piece of **** tells you that you won't be able to compete academically at cal, altman's basically telling you that he thinks you're a dumb azz, is that acceptable to you?...don't ever let nobody persuade you to place self imposed limitations upon what you can achieve in life, anything is attainable if you're willing to put in the work

the university of california, berkeley=#1 ranked public (#3 overall) university in the world

diamonds are forever (and evah, evah)#

visited this morning the recently opened nicklaus design group ferry point golf course just outside of nyc with panoramic views of the manhattan skyline


arrive from my hotel by cab at the clubhouse around 7:30 am to stretch & warm up at the practice facility

upon arrival the head golf professional tells me that ferry point's developer donald trump heard that as a golf digest & golf magazine rankings panelist that i had an 8:10 tee time and would i like to play with the donald at 8:20 am instead?

so i say sure, no big deal, let's do this

so we make the introductions on the practice green & the 1st thing i notice is that trump has the weirdest color hair ever (kinda yellow orange) & that he has total man boobs along with an oversized obnoxious red cap

i walk & carry my lightweight leather mackzenie bag while the donald drives a golf cart literally to within 6 inches of every green...just as annoyingly, we then proceed to play thru every group on the golf course in front of us (why does he do this, why not just take the 1st tee time?)...it's funny to watch people's reactions as he dictates the playing thru, some golfers are understandably agitated while others want a selfie with him on their phones, he very clearly enjoys all the drama he's created

so he tells while we wait for the short par 4 8th green to clear that he thinks ferry point is one of the greatest golf courses in the united states (it isn't, there are at least a dozen courses on long island & the hamptons that are significantly better) & that he's qualified to make that statement because of his extensive travels around the globe playing golf, that nobody knows golf architecture better than him & that includes actual golf architects

so in front of his 2 buddies & his cart caddie i tell the donald that actually i'm one of the 13 guys (and the youngest) to have played the world top 100 courses & stare him down...total silence, one of his buddies who is the chairman of macys starts to laugh, & donald play punches my shoulder kinda hard, he's been pawned...whatever

dude is an interesting guy but playing golf with him is not really a celebration of the game but more like riding a roller coaster

The guy appears a jerk of the first magnitude, even before your report, but be careful on the "man boobs"…He may have had prostate cancer and had to take hormones to knock his testosterone levels down. Man boobs ain't pretty, but for some beat the alternative. Others, it's no more than glutinous behavior.

get downstairs, check out & sure enough hustling eddie's got the taxi ready to roll & the door open for me...so i slide smooth eddie a fiver & he gives me a sly thank you with a nod of the head as he closes the door to the taxi

so we are driving the deserted streets of manhattan & as we cross broadway sayeed the cab driver lets me know that eddie shook him down for $5 in order to keep the coveted airport run...i tell sayeed no problem, i'm gonna take care of him

15 minutes later as we cross thru a toll sayeed is telling me that toll doesn't automatically charge him, that's gonna be a $5 extra charge...sure sayeed, whatever

gotta love nyc...i don't got no worries, i'm gonna charge you 5 bucks for reading this post

theo robertson is the greatest 3 point shooter in cal history...robertson shot a cal best 44% during his career including a staggering 48.7% his junior year...this past season robertson not only worked as the director of basketball operations but also served as the shooting guru particularly to jordan "man on fire" mathews

theo robertson was not only a lights out long range shooter for the bears but also a highly respected teammate who often unselfishly played out of position because of cal's lack of depth at the time...he also was a lock down defender with a steely demeanor & a tireless work ethic along with being an academically focused student athlete who left berkeley with a degree from the #1 public university in the world

monty made a tactically wise decision in hiring robertson as the director of basketball operations as theo was not paid in his prior role with the program...theo is hopefully being groomed to eventually be on the bench as an assistant coach...robertson could be a an older brother figure to bears recruiting targets in relentlessly watching them play in 100+ aau & high school games all the while explaining to players & their families from 1st hand experience the keys to balancing big time basketball with world class educational opportunities

#24



if cal intends to surpass arizona in recruiting, then the 1st action by the next men's basketball head coach at the university of california, berkeley should be to elevate theo robertson to an assistant basketball coach

the bears need an energized & tireless young guy who will relentlessly build strong relationships with aau & high school coaches while attending 100+ games a year...why was travis decuire the only bears coach at the california state championship games in sacramento this weekend?...that is embarazzing & unacceptable

perhaps the biggest issue (and it is often unsaid) for many elite recruits & their families is if they can academically compete in the classrooms of berkeley...pieces of **** like dana altman & his henchman tony stubbliefield have told recruits they are too stoopid to go to cal, that they will flunk out of berkeley

robertson is qualified to address these academic issues with cal's targeted recruits & their families and candidly answer those questions re: cal's outstanding academic support program from a personal perspective story of achievement

it should take about 5 minutes for the next cal basketball head coach to elevate theo robertson to an assistant coach...maybe 8 minutes if they are a dumb azz

give theo the ball & watch what happens

---

coach martin has assembled a remarkable high character & relentlessly hard working staff in berkeley and theo robertson is successfully moving forward his basketball career in oakland & potentially earning a nba championship ring with coach kerr & them golden state warriors

i will always remember both theo & td as the only 2 guys on the prior staff who agreed with me that we could successfully recruit ivan rabb...yeah, sometimes the dreamers get it right

cal fans can expect every player listed above to either leave cal with a degree and/or a nba contract..patrick christopher, justin cobbs & richard solomon all have around one remaining semester of schoolwork necessary to earn their cal degrees...as the wise marco harris once told me, men take care of their business

of the 300+ ncaa d1 bb teams, cal is among the most academically elite programs along with stanford and the ivy leagues most noteably harvard

the above is the MOST IMPORTANT stat sheet in cal basketball



this is the difference between basketball factories that use up & then discard their workers (leaving them unemployable on the streets) in today's highly competitive global economy and legitimate collegiate institutions of higher learning with an academic purpose...if you go to an academically mediocre school like kentucky or arizona & get injured you are ******

academic ambition is a beautiful thing, it will open doors in business after your basketball days are over & help you meet the girl of your dreams (and you're not thinking about it now but it will also help you raise intellectually curious children someday)...you can be limitless mentally

UCSD, our UC friend, is not USD and does not play Div 1 hoops. He went to USD.

oscar kerr does not have a gpa primarily because he is a dog

oscar might be a dumb azz or something...but then again he's a dog so there's always that
