Oregon Hires Cal DB Coach Yates Away
Per CalRivals and FootballScoop Marcel Yates to coach safeties at Oregon

Again, the Cal-Oregon pipeline proves to move both ways with Coach Yates moving north opening up another spot on the assistant staff.
Coach Yates came to Cal from his brief stint at UoA under HC Sumlin. Coach Yates previously coached Boise State and Texas A&M defenses. At Boise State, he was initially a DB/Secondary Coach and then came back to head their defense before moving to Texas and Arizona.
Alright. My fun pick here? Thomas Decoud.
I think there's no way Heyward doesn't get involved in DBs. Dude's a proven master; why not utilize those talents AND use his position as a recruiting tool? Heck, I don't care which title he keeps (OLBs, etc.) as long as he provides the greatest benefit to our Bears!
