• Bad press for the Band-Uh!
    The Sac Bee article claims a little more unsavory behavior:

    "hazing"
    "binge drinking"
    "sexual harrassment"
    42% complained about alumni band members at parties
    "Naked hot tub sessions" (voluntary?)
    "known rapists" (inflammatory allegations?)

    I don't know if the CAMB had any representation, but ending habitual alumni band socializing, and the 'naked hot tub sessions' are easy, common sense concessions.

    But if these are the standards, Zero Tolerance, a lot of student groups could fall. Fraternities. Historically Black fraternities (branding, beatings). There are probably others.

    How many band members own their own instruments?

    I have an idea!

    Cal Aggie un-Band-uH gathering at Plainfield Station ... WITH a bonfire!!! Private property... private instruments... have a blast ... and sing rebellious lyrics!
  • Bad press for the Band-Uh!
    What are the options.

    Appeal?

    Legal action?

    Is Chancellor May OK with this?

    What's next, Picnic Day Battle of the Bands truncated over administrative fidgeting?
  • Bad press for the Band-Uh!
    My assumption is that the Alumni Band is purged bc one or two members flirted with (over 18) and possibly partied with Band members?

    Does this now mean campus professors, grad students, and adult staff are strictly prohibited from flirting, dating, and socializing with students?
  • Bad press for the Band-Uh!
    It's worse than that. They took ...

    East Hall?
    The Pub
    Hickey Gym (now 100% ICA?)
    The Bonfire
    Cowbells
    The Steam Engine
    Toomey Field (no warning)
    Probably others (please add) ...

    And now ...

    The Band-Uh? Over PC Millenial hurt feelings?!

    If ever there was a sign campus is run by disconnected non-Aggie outsiders ...

    But a campus department staff group - composed of mature ADULTS in their 30s, 40s, and 50s - on a recent "training session" to Monterey was ...

    - drinking while driving (campus vehicles?) to Monterey
    - inconsequential, frilly field training
    - expensive rooms (misuse of campus funds?)
    - heavy drinking
    - [a complaint was later lodged by an attendee]
    - the new Manager, a Military Veteran, was notified by email (not protocol)
    - the Manager (and Father) committed suicide

    Which episode is worse?
  • Erron Duncan
    I believe he had a large family group in attendance wearing Cal Aggie (logo) customized with "Assassin". Great family.
  • Keelan Doss: Raider Watch
    Gruden went from positive to a small remark.

    So Keelan was an insurance policy. 16 catches, 1 legit drop? Does Gruden feel burned? No need for the remark, just say QB a higher priority.

    I hope Doss stays classy. I heard he also made great catches in practice?
  • Keelan Doss: Raider Watch
    ALAMEDA —" The decision to claim DeShone Kizer off waivers became clear Monday when it was learned the Raiders will place reserve quarterback Nathan Peterman on injured reserve with an elbow injury."
  • Aggies vs Bears
    OK, I didn't have too many contact highs in Bezerkeley!

    Does Hawkins think opponents will learn something from highlight videos? They have full game tape!

    Three outstanding replays I can't rewatch, can't send to alums, can't post to fan sites, NFL scouts can't see. Can you believe I can't find the SPECTACULAR catch Doss made as a junior, stretched out horizontal, the defender holding his left arm, and Doss makes a one-armed diving grab?!!
  • Aggies vs Bears
    About a 4 minute Bear highlight video.

    https://youtu.be/9Sv3Lq5z44o

    How is it that we still don't have football highlight videos? I thought our video guy won some award?

    Wouldn't highlight videos help in recruiting? And fan support?
  • Keelan Doss: Raider Watch
    Something going on. Raiders just claimed a 4th QB off waivers.

    Will they trade a QB, or do they think someone is injury prone?

    Worst case, Gruden did Doss a favor by giving him so much PT and PR.
  • Aggies vs Bears
    Good points. We have probably our biggest and best overall OLine ever? 7 guys 290# or bigger, 5 at 300#s, and a 6'9" sub.

    Harrell same size as Doss, and faster. Ran track as a freshman for us, played in HS with the Bear DBs, faster than them. The Bear LBs big trouble. Deng (6'6" LB) had 12 tackles (9 solo), Weaver 11 tackles. Post game presser, Weaver pissed and focused, repeatedly said their effort was unacceptable; Garbers laughing and non serious.

    [Edit] In a new thread I titled 'Young Defensive Players Emerge', I posted 8 RFrosh & Sophs who played major roles Saturday, including RF Eaton (LB) and Venable (6'2" DB).
  • Big Sky Scores Week 1
    How about our game?
  • Aggies vs Bears
    So I'm not crazy. If JM is an "A" QB, but only has 5 options; and Hunter is a "B+" QB, but has 8 options (add the run, RPO, keeper and XYZ), you've just increased your options by 60%! Whole different juju.

    It would take the Bears a whole series to adjust. Then, keep him in, or rotate back?

    Not bad to also start preparing for life post JM. We may not know our true potential until game 4.

    River - RFrosh linebackers Eaton (6 tackles) and Davon Frazer studded out, and 2 JC LB transfers saw time. They likely have a quicker learning curve.

    I hope Suani is OK, he was helped off the field in the 2nd half.
  • Keelan Doss: Raider Watch
    I like Tampa and St. Pete.
  • Big Sky Scores Week 1
    Lehigh LEVELS St. Francis Punter. SF come back to win, 14-13.

  • Big Sky Scores Week 1
    How many bombs has JM thrown?
  • Keelan Doss: Raider Watch
    Solid young man. Hope someone reminds him chewing gum during a TV interview not recommended.
  • Aggies vs Bears
    Coach Wilcox post game. Compliments our "Mush Rush" early in the interview, at the end compliments our offensive looks.

    End of the 4th I would have loved to see the very mobile Hunter Rodriques in at QB. Completely different options.

    Many Bear fans questioning going so long with Brown, lack of reps for 2s, unneeded injury risk.
