alas, I prefer this over any re-tread. that said, I tot at least one of these C's would have some experience like from a lower conference (up and comer)
there will be energy in the building and these kids will run through walls for their coaches, I'm intrigued and ready to throw caution to the wind.
Oh wow I didn't recognize him at first but when I saw his high school I remember he was a recruit once. He was Michael Barton's teammate. I like this hire.
Looks like everyone has a "mentor." Hutchings has Tosh. Somerville has Rolo. Tosh has Rolo (and Ron). And so on down the tree.
Hard to predict how this all will go, but it does seem like there's a plan. NCAA and NFL are becoming more similar so it's as good a time as any to have a true reboot from different professional backgrounds. Seems like we're trying to be a good landing spot for senior transfers. Hoping we can still properly develop young players, though, and not go late Tedford and drown people with the playbook.
Ok, officially nervous now with two first time coordinators game planning and calling plays under a first time HC. But in Tosh and Ron we trust. Hell, it could be crazy enough to work! Crazy is good.
Go Bears! Welcome to the Cal family coach. And a return home. Prove yourself here and get these young men to be menacing and impactful. Turn us back into a defense to be feared. Between Rivera, Tosh and Hutchings, we have a trifecta of great defensive coaches. Now we just need the players!
I like the fact that he’s also a Bay Area guy. He won’t be pining for some other state/region. Lessens the chances that he will leave. Promising that he has been in the NFL under a highly regarded DC. Recruits respond to coaches who have recent NFL experience. Looks promising! Welcome back to the Bay and to Bear Territory!!!
Tosh is aggressive in his hires. Young, with pro experience. Wilcox was not a risk taker, that we know. Like it.
fascinating
2 coordinators that have never coordinated.

Go Bears (let's get some OL/DL studs)
Let's get nuts!
Atta Boy. me too!

Not business as usual. I like it.

That’s what I was noticing too. Seems like a very interesting way of doing things. Interesting in a good way though.
I wonder if Tosh had that at his various stops along the way.

There’s a first time for everything! đŸ˜‰
