Yes, but hiring winning coaches is a huge priority now since it is very difficult for all schools to keep a kid for four years to be three four deep at a position.

These early season polls really don't mean much to me. They usually don't hold up very long. If Cal keeps winning for the nest 3 or weeks then we'll see us in the polls.

I'm surprised they didn't get any votes in the AP Poll, but that's okay. It's pretty common for teams that are seldom ranked to have a letdown soon after, as we can all attest. If they can beat SDSU and BC, then there is a good argument for a ranking. But, that is an IF :)

This is way too early to matter. All that matters is the next game against San Diego State who will be loaded for Bear and looking for the upset.

Win the ones that you’re supposed to and take care of business at home.

Yeah, OK, fine. I had to listen to the game on the radio, and what I heard was 1) Cal not crumple in the 4th while in the lead, 2) Cal play a full 60 minutes of football, 3) Cal not screw up on special teams. Let’s just see how the Bears hold up over the course of this “lite” schedule, I welcome a Cal team that can win.

One game at a time.

I have a slightly pudgy friend who used to brag, “I built this body one half gallon at a time!”

Slow and steady Bears, and soon you will be a heavyweight. 😉

Can’t get a half gallon anymore. All icream is now 1.5 qt. But Tillamok is still “extra creamy!”

Try their “Mudslide.”
