A player I did not have high expectations for when he transferred from Wisconsin, but he had a solid year in '24 and looked even better this Spring. A very bright and interesting young man as well.

Great to learn how much he's improved his technique here at Cal and how well the DL room gets along

Really rooting for TJ, I just like the dude.

Plus, while my one of brothers and I were walking back to our car after attending game day on campus, we met a couple of really nice guys and we all chatted while we walked. We found out that they were staying in Emeryville at a hotel but didn't have a ride yet. So me and the Bro told them we would take them to their hotel, I mean that's what Bears do right?

We really enjoyed their company and hopefully we were all right too lol. Come to find out that it was TJ's Dad (Trevor I think) and a friend that had come out for the game. Honestly, we'd hoped to bump into them again, but didn't.

So, Mr. Bollers, if you happen to read this thread, please consider sending me a direct message and perhaps we could get some folks together in the Fall for some food and game or two and root the Bears onward.

Cheers - Ken
