Jaylon Tyson Pac-12 stats: 32-49 on 2 point shots, 11-25 on 3 point shots, 20-24 from the free throw line . . . add it all up and you've got a dude who has scored 117 points on 74 shots across five games. Bonkers numbers.
the winning attitude that our coach has and the way he instills belief in this team so that they adopt his winning attitude is the key to rebuilding our program.
so happy with this result, and the ucla result, but ecstatic for these players who are learning and growing.
I thought this was going to be a laugher. Then we ratcheted up the defense, started making shots, and Jaylon Tyson went Super Saiyan. We also protected the ball and broke the press, all things we struggled with before.
This wasn't a lucky comeback. The team earned it by playing great basketball.
I told you this team has a special chemistry. This win comes down to the belief they could win. Belief in each other. What player wouldn't want to play for Madsen? See how his guys go on about him being an "every day" guy who has confidence in them? It's not accidental the whole is greater than the parts, and that the parts are better than they were before. So happy for the players, coaches and fans. Wish I was able to be there. I'll go see them in Seattle and hope we beat the Fuskies.
I know that there is still a lot of work to do for Cal Basketball to get back to being taken seriously, but the last two wins (over FUCLA and Colorado) have really been a shot in the arm for all Cal fans. We are already light years ahead of where the program was under Fox. Roll on you Bears!!!!!
Tyson is a baller...that drive-euro step 2 handed bop got the crowd hyphy! He took over the game in the 2nd half. It should make espn top 10! This is the 2nd year I purchased the student section plan during break...DOPE! Newell & Cone hit some big 3's. Aimaq had a tough game but had a huge block before fouling out. Larson came in with quality minutes and a key block! Sparse but loud crowd in the 2nd half.
Now get 10 of your friends to go with you to the UW game next week. And have them bring 10 friends. Home court advantage is what all good programs have.
Truly impressive comeback win. I hope the last two games will be enough to motivate students to attend games when they get back from winter break. Energy was really good in Haas when Cal started to make its run tonight, but it can be better still.
Cal needs to keep running their offense through Tyson. Watch Iowa WBB game and you can see how Cal should run their offense without the number of TOs and movement of the other players.

He was doing some amazing stuff with his screens. Yeah, he loves to go right, but he's crafty enough to still get to the hoop.
Is that good?

Fans told me that this game was the most thrilling basketball game Cal has seen for the past 7 years.
Love the toughness and intensity we saw in the 2nd half! If that's the Madsen signature, we love it!
100%

thank you ma’am!!
The most recent UCLA result is even funnier!
Fans sent me photos of their phones giving decibel alerts.
The decibels were at 95 and the apple phones warned of possible hearing loss.

I just want to direct everyone to that TO column. Only 5 turnovers. Frame it.

Hoping these wins can teach them how to lock in without falling behind. But, 100%, Cal Basketball is back!

The TV had a great view of that Tyson euro. My wife was trying to sleep but I gave a holler at that.
Had to add a link after I watched it 100 times.

Thanks BP.
Madsen was a gift.
Truly impressive comeback win. I hope the last two games will be enough to motivate students to attend games when they get back from winter break. Energy was really good in Haas when Cal started to make its run tonight, but it can be better still.
It still felt half full. If we can steal a win against Oregon...
Yeah!!! Go bears
Just think - if the OT games against SDSU and Butler went the other way Cal would be at 8-8, .500 ball.
A little confidence goes a long way. GO BEARS!
me of little faith. clicked it off before break. sheesh.
Shooting this hype into myself intravenously
Cal needs to keep running their offense through Tyson. Watch Iowa WBB game and you can see how Cal should run their offense without the number of TOs and movement of the other players.
