Seems like a really good person; listening to him converse, he seems to have the wisdom to be humble. I think he’s well equipped to be a mentor and bond authentically with his players. Also, I like the way he talked about the different aspects of guys learning the RB position. Welcome, coach!

I’d rather find replacements at the P4 level for these positions. We must be looking to save money.

I’d rather Cal be ranked no 1 also - but one thing at a time right? Go Bears!

Is hiring a position coach from a P4 team somehow remotely comparable to being ranked 1?? lol.

We not poaching from the B1G or the SEC based on available budgets, and the Big 12 isn't likely an upgrade.

Hopefully, they can recruit…

Thompson actually did leave? Oh man, that sucks. I have no idea how good Griffin is as a coach, but he has been given NFL talent.

The Thompson departure was a rumor.

He already left last week? Did northwestern make an announcement?

He is no longer with the program.

So hard to figure out what is official or not. I would think AI could help but nope.

Pretty sure I saw Coach Griffin at my local RV Park. The Roadrunner stickers stood out to me. LOL

Welcome to Cal, Coach Griffin.
