Cal's new head coach didn't waste a moment after his introductory press conference, boarding a plane with no luggage, no plan and lacking his new quarterback's phone number.
Hoping we will be able to keep JKS beyond 2026 (enough $$$), since we're really setting up 27/28 to be our years. If not, in Tosh we trust to fill in the necessary qb to go along with the rest of the talent building across the team.
College football appears to heading toward a world in which top QBs are generally going to be making head coach level salaries. *See reported $6M offer to Ty Simpson by Miami.
I believe we're at ~$2M for JKS now.
The bags are getting big enough to already be life changing before even making it to the NFL.
I'm sure Tosh could have found JKS's number more directly, but he was very intentional in highlighting the Cal-Hawaii connection. He understood how important it was to take this trip the hard way, to make it mean something more.
He has incredible energy and you can see why he is famed for his recruiting ability. Seriously impressive. I'm so ready for the season.
I like Tosh Lupoi’s intensity. I’ve known guys like him. We all have. The ones that have a heart are far superior to the ones that don’t.

Hot damn, I love this dude! I'm hopeful every year, but THIS YEAR feels like 2004 potential. Let me dream.
“I hit up the founder of Olukai knowing he lives there and there’s a Cal connection. Dan McInerny ...”
Cal Baseball in the late 1970s. OluKai still makes great footwear.

I never had occasion to do something like that myself (hmm, not sure now that I think about it..)
There were guys at work who would fly across the country and back just to be able to sit and talk with a particular individual on the plane.
I love that story.
Building a winning Cal culture one relationship at a time… Go Bears!
