Saying Goodbye–Robert Jordan
Obviously one very prominent junior player is on his way to fulfilling his destiny as “the next Devin Hester”, and I’ll get to him later, but first we have to send off every big senior who deserves his due. I don’t get too misty-eyed sending off our seniors–they’re football players, they do their job, and […]
Coaching…Overhaul?
(I’m in the process of moving out, so my posting will be sporadic for at least the next week or two. Since it’s the offseason now, there will be plenty of spare time.) A few weeks ago, I said the following. Wide receivers: Dan Ferrigno has produced outstanding receiver production for the second straight year, […]
Armed Forces Bowl Torrent
Saw the ESPN replay last night–should have an abbreviated writeup soon. For now, click here and you can watch the whole game for yourself. Enjoy. (As always, special thanks to chicagoaubear from The Bear Insider) You will need some ISO burning software to view the files, which I guess could be either Nero or one […]
We Won? We Won!
I was in an airport in Buffalo, saw Air Force 21 Cal 7 flash on the ESPNNews TV, and thought “Oh, no, not again”. I just decided it was best to memory wipe this season and snore next to some fat lady in Crocs for the flight, hoping to meditate the suffering away. Then after […]
Armed Forces Bowl Open Thread
I have been and will be traveling during the bowl week, and will most likely not see Cal’s bowl game because of these travels. If you guys have any comments on the game, I will try to approve them as soon as I can. Enjoy the game and Happy Holidays!
A Merry Christmas for Cal Football!
Don’t feel too bad for the players. Take a look at the lovely gift package the Armed Forces Bowl extracted for Air Force and Cal players: Slingbox SOLO, Timely Watch Co. watch, Armor Gear rolling duffle bag, and (haha) ball. I guess my question about the ball is what type of ball? Plastic? Rubber? Football? […]
Tha1 Be Gone?
I don’t think many of us expected otherwise. Cal also was right there. Logistically, it made perfect sense. Close to home, close to his mother, who raised him and daughter Jessica alone. Though committed to Florida, Moore still took a recruiting visit to the Berkeley campus over the weekend. Friday’s festivities included dinner at Tedford’s […]
Best of BN, 2007
I’m feeling terrible AGAIN. I’ve waken up the last five days and had no desire to write at all. So while I recover, I’ll be sporadic in posting habits until recovery comes, which might be tomorrow, two weeks, never. So for now, a la Golden Blogs, classic posts for you to read! (And by classic, […]
Pac-10 Coaching Carousel: Epilogue
Well, so much for letting Gregory go the easy way. Washington State University has selected Eastern Washington head coach Paul Wulff as WSU’s new head football coach, a source close to the selection process told The Associated Press late Monday. The WSU source spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to make […]
Pac-10 Coaching Carousel, Part II
So after covering the scenarios yesterday of those coaches who have passed on from the Pac-10 rites, I’ll continue looking through those coaches who will be under the eye for the next twelve months…and could very well be looking for new work in 2009. (The following images were made by a Bruins fan. Hence why […]
