Dare I say it again? In Wilcox I trusted, and in Wilcox my trust is rewarded. Serious chops as a coach. What high school TE isn't going to want to play for him? Where are you going to go to find a college TE coach with better credentials? Can't wait to see what he can do with our young studs. He and Musgrave are a unit, so that helps too. Go Bears!
I'll be laughed at this, but there is likely no website that has a better historical summary of Cryst than Wikipedia. Summarizes all of his jobs, which is of primary interest to Cal fans and which no website does better than Wikipedia.
Here's where it gets interesting -- read this from the Wikipedia article relating to Christ's personal life, particularly his children.
Chryst is the brother of Wisconsin Badgers head football coach Paul Chryst and former Mid-American Conference commissioner Rick Chryst. Their father, George, was an assistant at Wisconsin and then became the head coach and athletic director at the University of Wisconsin–Platteville. His oldest son, Keller Chryst, played quarterback at the University of Tennessee. Prior to Tennessee he went 11-2 as a starter at quarterback for Stanford University (2014-17). His .846 winning percentage is the highest all-time for Stanford quarterbacks with a minimum of 10 starts. His younger son, Jackson Chryst was the 2018 San Francisco Chronicle Player of the Year as quarterback for Palo Alto High School, and is currently playing football as a quarterback at Oregon State University. He also has a daughter, Gillian Chryst, who made the Dean's List graduating from the University of Alabama and currently resides in Texas.
What a home run coaching hire. Partner-level help on a junior associate budget.
Also, I will try my best to ignore the fact that his son quarterbacked Stanfurd to a Big Game victory in 2016.
The fact that he has coached TE's in Musgrave's system is YUGE! Great hire. College kids love being coached by ex pro players and coaches.
The power of Chryst compels us!

Seems like a great hire.
Jesus H., solid hire. Hope he turns Terry into a 2024 Day 1 pick
