Iβm so bummed. How many years do we have to endure this garbage? So many lesser universities finding success. We donβt make a commitment to sports but expect our alumni to do the same.
lately, he's been a fan of saying: (opponent) is a good team. we can't win football games when we don't get into the end zone. we have to play better football
he really can't say much more. We can all see what the issues are, and throwing the OL under the bus is not a good look for a coach. (The Pirate was really tacky calling out his own players.) JW could throw the Line coach under the bus, but if that is the case, he should fire him.
NOTHING was worse than the Colorado game (maybe Arizona the previous year). This was bad, but not that bad. The Beavers are well coached and play defense the way that we used to so I will give the Beavers credit for playing great football. They may upset Oregon in the Apple Cup.
We don't do that anymore either; its now the more politically correct "Rivalry Game". (Unclear if that's because its often not very civil, or if "war" is too uncomfortable a concept.)
Does Cal has the worst Athletic Dept in the P5? Maybe Rutgers or Vandy or something? And bragging about Olympic sports is like corporations bragging about ESG- its fine if the fundamentals are strong but otherwise its a clear indication management has no idea what theyβre doing.
Milner deserves a chance for no other reason than Plummer is just AWFUL. Was he even trying on those last two plays? He missed both of those receivers by at least five yards.
Plummer isn't awful, but he can't win with this weak pass protection. Kai is more mobile. It's a no brainer to play Kai....at least give him an honest shot. What we are doing is not working.
I was at that game. It was the only time I sat on Tightwad Hill and we beat a good Stanfurd team. If that is what it takes to win next week, then so be it.
I will admit taht I was extremely disappointed in all the fans buying that covid excuse. (not saying you were Jimmy, but I would have hoped that those connected to Cal had better critical thinking skills to recognize that covid affected every Uni and the Admin was just blowing smoke....)
Exactly. Hey, the COB sucks in the COVID regard, everyone can agree.
But to have the team completely fall apart in the face of a hardship that everyone had to deal with, albeit at different degrees, is the sign of an unhealthy program.
The problem is the sense of futility when you believe your institution simply doesn't care as much as you do and is complacent with said times being indefinitely difficult.
βJim my boy, I must say: having loved Cal since my first memories during the Snyder era; having watched that administration botch retaining Snyder; having watched mooch fail us and then endured the Holmoecaust; having watched some fake Native American and stinky hippie lady hijack long long long overdue stadium renovations and a decade overdue program wide uptick that prevented me from taking my father and grandfather (both veterans and blues- one a regent and former attorney for the university) to a game before their passing due to literally no ADA accessibility; having watched Tosh Lupoi literally Judas his alma Mater for aglorified canoe and 500 grandβ¦This is an entirely new low. And not by a little. We have a clan of nepotistic coaches from that liberal arts university up north driving this football program into the ground and basketball is not that far behind.
Why? How many national championships does Oregon have? How many Jimmy Doolittles does Oregon have? How many Earl Warrens? How many inventions that could literally be linked to saving democracy? I can keep going all dayβ¦Itβs a crap college with a trendy football program that is nothing historically.
We need someone who has pride in this program and this university. Someone who knows and respects what Joe Roth was. Someone who doesnβt blame their own shit performance on the city of Berkeley or empty stands during yet another 3-9 season. Someone that knows that the greater Bay Area is perhaps the greatest recruiting hot bed in football history. Someone that knows to recruit locally. Someone that knows that Tillman, Brady, Allen, Adams, et al all grew up locally and were spurned by Cal for overrated Arizona and Texas recruits and that they are the key to bringing this program back.
Troy Taylor is that man. And until he or another alum of the greatest university on the planet is announced as head coach Iβm sorry but count me out.
Even by recent Cal standards this is extremely painful to watch. And itβs not just this year either and not just the drunken grumblings of a few young blues either. Itβs cross generational and itβs not going away. The old blue apathy that protected bad administrations of yore is dying off quickly and even by those standards this current iteration of Cal athletics is not only pink slip worthy but worthy of a βdonβt let the door hit you on the head on your way outβ.
Thanks. Do your job and resist your first instincts which are apathy and nepotism or itβll be your name after #fire next broadcasting endlessly across the alumni network.
Thanks and try not lose a baseball or gymnastics program in the process.

I know what youβre thinking. Do I really think Iβm helping by sending such an email?
Why yes. Yes I do. This shmuck needs to understand that blue bloods with Cal roots do exist and I will not shut up until heβs in the unemployment line. This is an unforgivable sin. He is literally responsible for driving our entire athletics program not only into the ground but perhaps out of existince. F Wilcox! F Musgrave! F Greatwood and double mother F Knowlton! I guess if youβre cool with being the generation that sat idle by during the dissolution of Cal athletics then just go on about your day and keep your mouth shut full of apologies and that old blue apathy we all βlove.β Btw great call on FTX lmao!
Plenty of people complained, Bob, as there was zero need to extend Wilcox...he still had multiple years left on his contract. It made no sense...Knowlton literally rewarded him for saying no to the Ducks.
9 rushing yards.
Wow
Longest was Plummer's 15.
We finally got goood ass talent and now they goneβ¦

Iβm so bummed. How many years do we have to endure this garbage? So many lesser universities finding success. We donβt make a commitment to sports but expect our alumni to do the same.
This is what bothers me the most. We need to be beating OSU , Arizona, and WSU all the time, everytime. That's my minimum expectation
I miss the days when we were dominant on both offense and defense. Those were fun to watch.
Fire Knowlton. Fire Wilcox. Fire Musgrave. Preemptively fire Mark Fox.
Fire their replacements too, even before they start. Thatβll send a strong message that we wonβt accept mediocrity
It's like when I order two beers when I sit down first. Always have a second one ready because it will be needed before the server comes back.
Max Browne looks like Joe Burrow
Any guesses on the stupid cliches Wilcox will say in his press conference
lately, he's been a fan of saying: (opponent) is a good team. we can't win football games when we don't get into the end zone. we have to play better football
he really can't say much more. We can all see what the issues are, and throwing the OL under the bus is not a good look for a coach. (The Pirate was really tacky calling out his own players.) JW could throw the Line coach under the bus, but if that is the case, he should fire him.
This is on me, and unfortunately, the team has not gotten better, so I hereby resign effective immediately.
hahahahah
βWe need to execute better. Itβs starts with meβ
I think that he may just stare at the camera. There are no words for this season.
We didnβt play well. Have to play harder. Have to execute and players didnβt. Same BS
this
We gotta play better
This feels WAY worse then the end of the Dykes era
Yep. This offense is the worst. Can lose but but canβt lose and be this ugly. Why TF does this program keep trying the same thingβ¦
I want to not care about Cal football, but I'm still mad again tonight.
I wonder how much of the early success was DeRuyter?
A lot.
And GA
Squeezing him out for Sirmon made zero sense.
TDR + NFL talent...
Just remember folks, winning off the field is important too (or did she mean, in lieu of????)
That was worse than the Colorado game. We are almost as bad as Colorado and that is saying something.
NOTHING was worse than the Colorado game (maybe Arizona the previous year). This was bad, but not that bad. The Beavers are well coached and play defense the way that we used to so I will give the Beavers credit for playing great football. They may upset Oregon in the Apple Cup.
That won't happen, since its Washington and WSU that play the Apple Cup.
Thanks Andy. I was so riled up from the debacle that I witnessed that I forgot that Oregon and OSU play "the Civil War".
We don't do that anymore either; its now the more politically correct "Rivalry Game". (Unclear if that's because its often not very civil, or if "war" is too uncomfortable a concept.)
That wasnβt even a football game. Was the offense on the field? I remember one pass to Hunter. Thatβs it. Seriously. What a disaster.
Take a look at the injuy list.....it's hard to succeed when your OL is all injured.
We may not have starters, but we have no excuse for backups playing this badly, or if they are just incompetent, then no excuse for poor recruiting
Does Cal has the worst Athletic Dept in the P5? Maybe Rutgers or Vandy or something? And bragging about Olympic sports is like corporations bragging about ESG- its fine if the fundamentals are strong but otherwise its a clear indication management has no idea what theyβre doing.
hey now, Vandy won a conference game today, beating Kentucky on the ROAD.
Candy broke their 26-game conference losing streak today
Wilcox has lost this team. See ya in 2 years folks.
Jeez....The third stringers are kicking our ass! This is bad.
Wilcox is gone.
Wilfox isnβt going anywhere.
Only if you're willing to pick up all the years left on his salary.
Defense wins, 7-3
Just post the score card form now please.
whoop there it is: https://writeforcalifornia.com/p/cal-oregon-state-football-insta-recap-2022
Is there really zero chance that Wilcox gets canned after this season? Even if we lose 8 to end the season?
There is a >0 chance.
Im curious how the wealthy Cal boosters are gonna react to a 9 game losing streak to end the season.
Oh we wealthy folk are reacting with sadness. ( I was wealthy in spirit until this game)
I'm curious how the wealthy Cal boosters reacted to the extension of a patently average HC.
Well he is the dude with the endowed chair...
Last year you could talk about all these mitigating factors to underachieving. This year?
Itβs over, its just a matter of whose paying to end it.
I feel like it should be a for cause firing almost. I mean this is just total garbage. Itβs just offensive
Rule #1 of being a nepotistic College Football Coach: Seek job opportunities at Cal.
Rule #2: Hire ya boys
Rule #3: Never play a talented backup but do play an untalented backup
Fire people Now. Send a message. If you donβt we canβt take you seriously as a coach that cares about this program.
At this point it doesnβt matter, the program needs to be blown up in the offseason.
3 points offense.
Zero
What a disgrace. FIRE THE WHOLE GROUP OF THESE LOSERS NOW.
Really tired of hearing Yogi Roth apologize endlessly for Wilcox.
Yeah we will go heavy in the portal Yogi. Weβll lose all of our talent in the portal because of your boy.
We will end up hitting the portal and end up with less
Milner deserves a chance for no other reason than Plummer is just AWFUL. Was he even trying on those last two plays? He missed both of those receivers by at least five yards.
Plummer isn't awful, but he can't win with this weak pass protection. Kai is more mobile. It's a no brainer to play Kai....at least give him an honest shot. What we are doing is not working.
Somebody tell Fleming that we already have 18 offensive lineman
I think they were suggesting we try to get some P5-level lineman, not FCS guys
How do you have 18, and then can't come up with 5?
Well we went portal and got a Montana State OL who got injured and was replaced, which allowed Vatikani to start.
Oh. Quality matters?
This team ainβt beating Stanford, folks.
At least Knowlton wonβt be able to pretend beating Stanford equals a successful season like he did last year.
Fire Wilcox this week so theyβll give him a going away win like Joe Kapp.
I was at that game. It was the only time I sat on Tightwad Hill and we beat a good Stanfurd team. If that is what it takes to win next week, then so be it.
How dare you type such words!
We are down 28 w 6 mins left β¦. and Plummer is still playing!!!
You wound me, JW, you wound me
he's the starter for a reason right? /shrug
Assume arguendo Plummer was the best QB in the nation. No way youβd play him now due to injury risk
We should just fire everyone and the let the WriteForCalifornia game chat call plays next week. It honestly couldnβt be any worse than this.
I'm dialing up play action on the first play of the game...it would go for 30.
Then QB draw on the next play.
I script the first 32 plays to go to Ott.
Iβll tell you what weβre not doing, a damn end around.
If I did my job this poorlyβ¦
You'd be a billionaire
Plummer is still playing π‘
Even putting aside that we want to see Milner, why risk getting the first string QB injured in garbage time?
Targeting
Our backup kicker is our highlight
Sad
Kicking is winning!
Sad
Sad
Sad
Sad
π’
his dad was a beast
Does this game mean we aren't going to the Rose Bowl?
Not this game.
No, we still have to play that game. ( Or are we home against LA)
Home
Less than half left in 4th quarter and our offense still has not scored.
We try to be good guests when we visit schools and not run up the score on their home field.
Is there a team in power 5 that Cal would be favored to beat right now?
Real answer, maybe VA Tech.
Colorado
Post of the year, Tez!!!
Love it.
Am I misremembering or did FTX pay for part (all?) of the field deal with crypto? Knew that was going to be a gigantic mistake.
Maybe that is why we suck this season. FTX and cryptocurrency are just bad mojo. Ask anyone who has invested in that garbage lately.
They paid in cash, whatever that they paid til now.
https://www.sfchronicle.com/sports/warriors/article/FTX-bankruptcy-hits-Bay-Area-venture-capital-17578348.php
Just looked it up. This Chronicle article says they paid in Bitcoin.
I guess Q is if Cal converted the Bitcoin to cash. My guess is they probably did
I sure hope so!!
So apparently Learfield accepted the full payment in cryptocurrency on behalf of the university.
https://calbears.com/news/2021/8/23/cal-athletics-ftx-unveil-10-year-landmark-relationship.aspx
Yeah, so I guess FTX paid in Bitcoin but we got cash.
I see, thatβs a relief. Thanks for clarifying.
I don't know how much we got though. How much was remaining to be paid
Now we see Millner right.
nah, garbage time for Plummer to pad his stats so they look half-way decent by end of game
Canβt believe what Iβm watching LMFAO
Musgrave is such a disaster. We were doomed when Wilcox refused to fire him after Colorado.
This is beyond Musgrave, this is a program
wide failure.
It is. Systemic.
And leadership's continued reliance on COVID as an excuse for incompetence.
I will admit taht I was extremely disappointed in all the fans buying that covid excuse. (not saying you were Jimmy, but I would have hoped that those connected to Cal had better critical thinking skills to recognize that covid affected every Uni and the Admin was just blowing smoke....)
Exactly. Hey, the COB sucks in the COVID regard, everyone can agree.
But to have the team completely fall apart in the face of a hardship that everyone had to deal with, albeit at different degrees, is the sign of an unhealthy program.
Agreed. Knowlton should be the one to go.
Yep. Wilcox losing his job as well
No heβs not.
Knowlton is an idiot and gave him a big extension.
Musgrave, Wilcox and Mark Fox are a symptom, Knowlton is the root of the issue.
We are the kings of sh*t mountain.
Yay I can post more emojis
ππ©π
Backups in for Oregon state and stillβ¦nothing
Rooting for your team during difficult times is way harder than jumping on a bandwagon and only accepting perfection. You try it here in Corvallis.
The problem is the sense of futility when you believe your institution simply doesn't care as much as you do and is complacent with said times being indefinitely difficult.
There is a big gap between difficult times and perfection. No one is expecting perfection.
I expect a lovely night in the Willamette Valley and the happiness of being to my first game in four years.
It turned out nice. I donβt mean that I like losing but I know Musgrave is gone and weβll still have our stalwart band and fans.
Also worst and weirdest field rush ever.
Probably Voodoo Donuts? Those are famous up here.
My email to Knowlton,

So love your thought process but Knowlton is the real problem. Tell him to resign.
you had better send it to teh Chancellor, as I'm sure that Jimmy Boy blames covid adn the COB...
Alums
Wilcox is done. Im around enough slums to know.
Interesting, maybe thatβs why he hasnβt bothered dealing with Musgrave ?
Wilcox is so lost in the woods and we have two more years to watch him fail.
Because there is no oversight here. You're 10 games under .500 and get an extension...
Plenty of people complained, Bob, as there was zero need to extend Wilcox...he still had multiple years left on his contract. It made no sense...Knowlton literally rewarded him for saying no to the Ducks.
Well hmm Wilcox not afraid to bench a kicker
yeah, that'll improve our chance of winning
Exactly. That's f-ing funny!
Because there's no ST coordinator so Wilcox doesn't need to worry about hurting anyone's feelings
