> expect introductory remarks and press conference featuring Travers Family Head Football Coach Tosh Lupoi and Cal Football General Manager Ron Rivera.

Imagine showing that sentence to Cal fans 10 years ago and telling the fanbase that we're actually stoked for it.

Welcome back!

I think very highly of Justin Allegri, but he accidentally led this thing off referring to us as “The University of Berkeley.” Along with the podium, however, Lyons in fact seems obsessed with the use of Berkeley at every turn. Cal and University of California alone are not enough to him? Can’t pass up a chance to let people know we are Berkeley. I think that whole obsession is overblown, and at this point it comes across as insecure and self-obsessed. Let people call us whatever they want.

We are THE University of California! Why bring us down with just the city name like we're some common UC extension site? Bureaucracy....

Tosh is a legitimately hilarious dude. That's definetly going to help with building team chemistry. I hope his high-level rizz translates to the field, and we can light it up in the ACC next year. #LetToshCook

Holy shit...home run intro. The intensity and confidence is infectious...bonus points, I saw some of my fraternity brothers who can write checks in the audience! And I really loved his overview on JKS and keeping him. Wow, just wow

Tosh said the right things imo. I pray this is a golden age for Cal football.

Is he coaching the bowl? Was that answered somewhere already?

no, he will coach out the playoff for Oregon, but will spend his spare time recruiting and preparing for the Cal job.

Sorry don’t remember how I got in here. I apparently ran through a wall.

As an Oregon fan I am stoked for the Cal team and fanbase. We all knew he was going to be up for a HC gig sooner than later, happy it’s his Alma Mater and an old Pac12 foe

To be honest the entire Oregon community seems to have been very gracious about this, up to and including Lanning. It’s so cool to see.
