Slimming down rosters puts you on a path to eventually dropping money losing women's teams. That's where the potential savings come in. On their own, cutting walk-on's is a pretty inconsequential move, financially.


agreed, reducing men's roster slots combined with cutting certain men's sports then allows the elimination of several women's teams & remain in compliance with title ix

that's why reducing men's roster spots right now is necessary to move forward with additional cuts

continued overspending is not an option with today's budgetary constraints for the university, a significantly slimmer athletic department will benefit the cal basketball & football programs

let's do this (the time is now)#

This is only somewhat true. I agree with the overall premise, but right now, we are using Prong 3 of Title IX. The strategy you are suggesting requires a move to Prong 1. Right now, we would be so far out of compliance with Prong 1 that it would be virtually impossible to cut any women's sports without cutting many men's (even with roster reductions).

Do you know what the ratio (or other formula) is for prong 1? We could eliminate a ton of male spots fairly easily.

Prong 1 requires the same percentage of participants as the percentage of students in the university (currently 53% female, but anticipated to go to 60% female by 2025). Right now, we're way out of compliance with that.

Unless we want to go the route of some SEC schools who see athletics solely in terms of entertainment and not for participation, it is going to be a challenge.

Are we really tho? As it is, we already have more women's teams. Obviously, they're smaller. But If we can eliminate men's XC and track, gym, soccer, and reduce roster sizes everywhere else, we could cut upwards of 200 spots or more. Would we still really be far off from those percentages?

And yes, I do understand the diversity challenge. But we might be able to get away with it if we keep the women's CX and track teams.

Staff
When you take large men's only sports with football and rugby, yes, we're way out of balance based on Prong 1. Cutting football down to 110 including walk-ons, cutting rugby down to 30 or so and cutting crew by 25-50% and starting a women's rugby program coached and fully-funded by Clark and staff might allow a switch over to Prong 1 and the subsequent women's and men's program eliminations that come with it but I'm not sure even that's enough to do it.

the new cal staff is keeping an eye on 6'7" 180 lbs wing mason forbes of folsom, his sister kenzie is a california golden bear commit for coach gottlieb, both are in the 2018 class

mason is flying under the radar right now but he got a 4.0 gpa but more importantly he got great (not good) hair...moms sasha can't ball at all but dad sterling toured with the harlem globetrotters for 10 years

He is conspicuously absent from the list of invitees published by ESPN. While the article has the caveat that the list is not 'official,' sure seems odd his name is not on it.


trust me, my man young ivee has been invited to the 2017 nba combine, he's battling for a lottery selection spot in the 1st round

a kinda unique wrinkle to coach wyking's strategy is for the assistant coaches to be positionless, everybody kinda works with everybody

coach montgomery's final staff:
travis decuire-guards
gregg gottlieb-bigs
john montgomery-recruiter

the dealmaker's 1st staff:
travis webster-guards
jon harris-bigs-
yanni hufnagel-recruiter

watching practice last week theo & chris worked more with the guards & tim with the bigs, will be interesting to see how this plays out over time

tim "gonna beat the **** out of you with my foam pad" o'toole


theo "mr nba" robertson


chris "the talker" walker


yeah, let's get the sorry azz worn out carpet replaced in front of the gold gym entrance now:hammer:

No clue if he's got the grades or not, but isn't Logan Johnson someone Cal should be looking at? It's bad enough that the PAC-12 somehow let his bro Tyler go overlooked and play at Fresno State.


unlikely, family (logan is leaving st francis) is currently moving to miami to be closer to his big bro tyler who plays for the heat

what up, chase?

how did your 3rd official visit to gonzaga go last weekend?...spokane is a pretty diverse place, kinda like the san francisco bay area, right?

now you got your 4th official visit to arizona this upcoming weekend, make sure the donut boy of tucson tells you how he's gonna try to recruit over you with marvin bagley jr, ok?

let's be real here, chase, the trouble with **** academic schools like arizona, gonzaga & san diego state is that they not gonna open doors for you when basketball is done with you, that day arrives for everybody eventually

did I mention that southwest offers the most & cheapest flights from las vegas to berkeley on gamedays than your other visited options?

35+ mpg (guaranteed)#

Shocky1;842826654 said:



coach wyking is actively recruiting duke transfer 6'10" 230 lbs chase jeter, he got a 7'1.5 wingspan & a 9'1.25 standing reach

jeter is from bishop gorman high school & played for the las vegas prospects, he is a former top 10 player in the 2015 class (along with ivan rabb & jaylen brown) & a former mcdonalds all american...he sat out part of this season after surgery to fix a herniated disc in his back, jeter would rehab next season & be a 35+ minute starter at the 4 replacing marcus lee in 2018

chase is not a dumb azz, he got a 3.86 gpa in high school with an interest in political science...berkeley would make sense from a playing time perspective as marcus, sam & the king will all be seniors as jeter sits out next season & then he would be an impact starter for the bears in 2018 playing 35+ mpg

espn eliminating staff & shrinking operational costs, expect more remote site announcers which is kinda bizarro

this fiscal reality (coupled with killer whales stopping their donations in protest of mike williams dsyfunctional communication skills) has not impacted the cal athletic department (yet)

ursa, asu is a training school for fast food jobs, strippers & future wives of cal, stanford & ivy league grads...taylor (who lacks her dad's killer instincts) is gonna go to school in tempe like her moms, she got a good (3.3 gpa) but not great gpa...she will continue in her role as one of the california golden bears biggest fans on gamedays with her dumb azz dad, wearing sun devils gear around the house is not gonna happen

taylor, i just want you to be happy in life & i love our time together traveling to berkeley & road games, love you always sweetie
