This got me looking at the portal to see some ‘realistic’ options if we could add a player or two...and who might help...forgive me for the ESPN links (hope that doesn’t violate W4C policy - will take down if so).
Great Borzello article outlining the possible reasons why the portal is gonna be nuts this year...

Here’s some names that would help & could be a fit at Cal...
Ike Nweke (PF) Columbia; Zeb Jackson (CG) Michigan ; Jalen Gabbidon (CG) Yale; and my personal, pipe dream favorite...Jordan Ivy-Curry (PG) UTSA.
But as it stands now, figuring Andre takes his Cal degree elsewhere (where I’ll be rooting for him), we’ve got 13 scholarships and they are, in no order:
1. Kuany Kuany
2. Lars Thiemann
3. Jalen Celestine
4. Sam Alajiki
5. Obinna Anyanwu
6. Marsalis Roberson
7. Joel Brown
8. Jarred Hyder
9. DJ Thorpe
10. Monty Bowser
11. Dmitrios Klonaris
12. ND Okafor (FR-PF)
13. Grant Newell (FR-SF)
Stands to reason, someone above (or more) will be heading out for some reason...question is who.
And while I really like, and pull for, every player mentioned above, I see a lotta holes on that roster when they match up against ascending programs like Wazzu, UW & Colorado, in addition to Zona, UCLA, SC, and Oregon, etc.

It’ll be interesting.
