Embarrassed for the players, man. Poor kids…just a total failure of leadership.

It looked for a while that Cal would get more than doubled up on the score. Not only did that not happen, the Bears broke 45 on the scoreboard. Comparing with the results from the first game, is it possible Stanford improved that much? Or Cal regressed that much? I've been to both Haas & Maples, and there isn't that much of a home court advantage at either onr.

We can get to 40 during garbage time (as Stanford puts in the Scout team)

Listening to the radio broadcast (don’t have espnu).

I’m starting to think the excessive number of the “Cal Hope” program ads are *specifically* targeted to Cal basketball fans.

Holy fuck Harrison Ingram just annihilated, sonned, gave birth to ND Okafor you name it. If that’s not sports center top play i don’t know what it is.

Yes this is an appropriate reaction.

The slow burn on foxes dome has turned into a fire. Losing causes hair loss.

At this point, Fox has mentally checked out. He knows that JK is a gentleman, and won't fire him until March, at which time he collects his payout and retires

The fact that this guy will get fired and make a couple million pretty much tells you how stupid these coaching contracts are.

He’ll make about $900K.

Mark Fox the man who loves to call timeouts after we score just led his team to the Wolves by not calling a TO, 11-0 run and we are down 10. This is sooooooooooooo bad.

Holy hell this is such a bad game. Why the hell did I pay $30 for this. I should know better by now.

They should have paid you $30 just to show up

Offensively we are bad. No purpose with ball movement, settling for threes and staying on the perimeter.

Defense has also been bad. Off ball rotations have been asinine so far. How we are only down 1 I have no idea.

Welp, ESPN gives Furd 91% chance to win.

I stand by my belief that Mark Fox holds guys out simply to maintain the “injury” excuse…

It’s former player Rod Benson articulating what many of us have been saying about Mark Fox for 3 seasons now.
