Yeah he was a walk on but also a transfer. He had 500 receiving yards as a true freshman at Idaho State then transferred to Cal as a walk on. He sat out 2014 due to transfer rule (good times!) and debuted in 2015 when we had loaded WR room in Goff's final season. He had a breakout season as junior in 2016 catching passes from Webb and then declared for NFL draft foregoing his senior season.
“He brings a lot of calm presence. He knows so much about football and the receiver position. It’s been nothing short of amazing just learning from him and picking his brain about everything.”
All of this bodes well for our Cal Bears. Also love the quote about accepting Tough Love on Day 1 of Spring ball. Cal may just have the horses this year, Walter.
Good vibe and connections coming through. Bear Territory!
Wait, Coach Chad Hansen ?
I really liked him as a player. IIRC he was a walk-on who worked really hard and had a breakout season as a senior.

Same thought, that's awesome!
COACH HANDSOME?
Whoa, I thought the same thing - it does look like it is him. Cool.
