Absolutely loved that he announced this with a meme. In the modern age of college football and the transfer portal, it's nice to see a blue chip talent like Ott still bleeds blue and gold. We're lucky to have him.
It means a great deal to us. I love this guy's sense of humor and commitment to Cal. Looks like we are building an OL that he and the Jet and our QB deserve. I wonder who that will be. Go Bears!
WOW! Ott will forever be in the pantheon of the truest blue and gold. I hope the off-season allows his injuries to heal and our OL to gel so we can send him to the pros as a legend.
What a wonderful Christmas present, thank you Jadyn for your commitment to the Golden Bears and to Cal as an educational institution! It looks like there will be a 2025 OL worthy of your and JET's talent, now all we need is a first class signal caller... does Jared Goff have any college eligibility left??? Seriously, it is so great to see Jared tearing up the League with plays like the Stumblebum. Go Bears Forever!!!
I'm singing "The 12 Days of Christmas" right now. And if you want to get technical, the Orthodox church celebrates Christmas on Jan 5, so it is an early Christmas present. In all seriousness, Happy Hanukkah to all my Jewish friends!
This move was well appreciated but to be truthful.His NFL stock took a big drop with his injuries. I think Ott had no choice but to come back. With this new O-line, our running game has the potential to be one of the very best in the country. It has a chance to be the same backfield when Russell White/ Aaron Wallace was here and we had two 1000 yd rushers or the backfield when Marshawn lynch/ Justin Forsett was here.
Anthony Wallace. Yeah, my point exactly. Ott was sure (and before the season stated so without hesitation) that after this year he was bolting for the NFL. He had a crappy year, so now that’s not a good option. His stock dropped, and he’s left with no choice except to try again. That he trusts his OL to improve (and didn’t bolt to another program) is encouraging though.
If this man had wanted to check out another program, there are very few coaches that wouldn’t be rounding up a big bag of cash to have him. Him staying in college is logical. Him staying with us is loyalty.
Love it! When we bring players in that aren't 5 star and they become stars at Cal, it's fantastic when they stay and understand not only all that Cal and Bay offers, but some sense of loyalty or gratitude. Here's to hoping that Ott crushes 2025 behind a well trained and effective offensive line and he goes top 10 in the NFL draft. And when he is introduced as an NFL player, he will say: Go Bears!

Ott is Blue and Gold Cal Bear Forever

O-T-T T-O G-O
JAYDN OTT IS BACK FOR MO’
Top Dog needs to create an Ott Dog in celebration 🙌🏻
It's a WonderCal Life.
Everytime we get some hogs, our running backs unpack their things.
Just wanting good health for Ott. The rest will take care of itself.
With good OL
And a new #1 QB… waiting for announcement from portal
He’s a very good RB with an even higher ceiling and seems to be a genuinely super person.
WOW! Ott will forever be in the pantheon of the truest blue and gold. I hope the off-season allows his injuries to heal and our OL to gel so we can send him to the pros as a legend.
YES!! The return of the Jedi!
Awesome! And the meme is brilliant! Classic Ott!

Christmas is over, this a Hanukkah gift.

Technically it’s the 5th day of Christmas
Let’s get some Golden Rings!
A man of character! Cherish the Cal degree and have a wonderful final year of football. We will be in the stands cheering!
The two most important things to Ott are family and faith. He is a unique athlete, and believes in loyalty.

That's not true.
He had a choice to transfer, but he didn't.
Do we know how much the Collective came up with to sweeten the pot? And if other teams were sniffing around?

Oh screw it I have a good feeling about next season!
Also, Ott seems to understand the Cal online community in a unique way. The memery of the past 2 years has convinced me of this.
Now let’s get this man more blockers and a QB that can help take his draft stock TO THE MOON!!!
Warm fuzzy moment. Thrilled to have him back for the Bears

Great news, this is very surprising but in a good way!
I bet us grabbing 4 OLs out of the portal had a big part in this decision. Hopefully we can get a stud QB and a few wrs to make it work. Go bears! 🐻
