One thing that was evident in watching this game, as well as the Stanford/Wazzu tilt immediately following, is just how far this Cal team is from actually competing in its current incarnation. I’ve felt for awhile that a different scheme more catered to the actual skills of the players would have this Cal team at least playing better than 3-25, though as others have pointed out, probably not a whole lot better. That said, even 11-17 would look a helluva lot better.
But UW and Wazzu are both decidedly better teams than Cal, yet find themselves treading water near .500 in the P12. We’ve got a long, long ways to go…but it starts with a new leader in Berkeley…
My brother in Cal, Bob (if you jump in this thread), Ole Miss fired their coach Kermit Davis (their version of Mark Fox) last night, with a week to go. Yeah, it's pretty late in the year for that, but they actually had 10 wins! Only 2-13 in conference, but the bar is now set.
Also, I remembered that last year, Chris Mack was fired in January at Louisville after 4.5 seasons of mediocrity...that guy was a major success at Xavier and considered a huge get when first hired. He just never got going on Louisville, now their program is as bad as Cal's.
I don't really care at this point, fire him this week, next week, after the P12 championships...but Knowlton will find a way to completely F this up, just wait.
I have said this all year, Cal doesn’t have a div 1 shooter on the team. Not one guy who can consistently shot the ball. I don’t want to hear the injury excuse. Fox has completely missed on recruiting even one good athletic player. This is a complete embarrassment to the program and fans who support the program. Knowlton and Fox need to get walking papers ! Get a quality coach who can recruit quality players, at least players that can create their own shot for crying out loud. Is the season over yet? Uggggg
As of reading this I have received a technical foul
Thanks Rick…good stuff.

These officials were the worst I have seen in a college game, men or women's games.
Sigh...
