LOVE how Spivital communicates. Such a contrast...I hope and pray this will translate to results on the field, but 100% the players must be able to relate to him more than he who shall not be named. I also love Spring, when hope literally springs eternal. GO BEARS.
Thanks much. This makes me think of how I am doing while learning the cello. There is a steep and fun learning curve in the beginning. And then you realize what is really hard, and what you don't know. This begins the phase of learning that is known in academic circles as "Shitty time". A term used to describe the in-between phase of knowing enough to know what you don't know, and finding it hard to know it. At this point in the spring, their are tired and I'm not surprised the coaches are having to motivate them. Let's face it, we are going to have a dynamic offense that will yield more points and also more turnovers by a young QB. There is no way that won't happen. Spav says as much. If defense can hold teams to 24, and we can score 31, we are all happy. Just don't want a Dykes situation, and we won't. Fair number of players out right now, or never played in spring. I'm especially concerned about Cardwell and wish we knew more about his injury.
Why doesn’t the NFL and CFB institute those soft shell helmet protectors as mandatory? They are obviously for player safety and I wonder what the stats on their ability to limit brain injuries/concussions.
Grossly concerned about all the injuries. Card well and Williams are both out and for how long? We don’t know how serious their injuries are. Let’s hope ott can stay healthy because without him, CAL is toast
No idea what to expect from this team this year. The only player back on offense is Ott, everyone else hit the portal, which is never a good look when your best guys bail. The hope that Wilcox could turn Cal around is fading, it’s bad when the offense is awful, it’s even worse when a defensive minded coach now has the defense going in the wrong direction too. I think the fan base is restless and Wilcox should be on thin ice.

Any word on Hightower? I don't see him on the 1st or 2nd team but see him listed here - https://calbears.com/sports/football/roster/brian-hightower/22456.
