• Lady Bird - Sacto & UC Davis
    Well, apparently, no mention of sac state, the real local institution of higher learning. So i guess we will just have to be happy being “the boring ag school” as mentioned in a movie. Maybe Greta has hurt feelings over st francis high school’s many beatings by Davis High School. I still think it was a cheap shot aimed at a sac audience. If its better than Breakfaast Club i will go. If not, I don’t like coming of age movies and will wait for amazon so i can pause for a toilet break.
  • Chima Moneke Suspended Indefinitely
    Forget the process; i am now seriously concerned about this young mans health and well being. He knows he may have let his team down (his main support group at Davis). He’s 8000 miles from home. Not seen family and parents for 8 years. This must be seriously depressing for Chima. Yet, i do believe that AD Blue will handle this properly and that there is a reason for this delay that we simply do not know at this time. The total silence may actually be a good thing. Like all of you I HOPE!!

    Well, i will tell you that Morgan is the toast of the town in Santa Rosa her home town. We are very proud of her. Did you know she was not recruited by any other D1 school/coach but for Jen? She was the first scholarship player ever recruited out of Santa Rosa HS. She almost went to sonoma state? Did you know that she is a biomedical engineering major, one of the most challenging majors in the UC system? There was a big story in the Press Democrat about her a week or so ago. Sorry i cannot bring it up now. I love that girl!!!

    Well at least we have the Ladies to follow. Arguably one of the best teams the Ags have ever had in any sport male or female. Morgan on track to break all kinds of scoring records before she graduates. I don’t think they get nearly enough credit for what they have accomplished so far. Sac bee doesn’t even print their scores and the attendance for their games is less than one might expect for a team with 20 wins. I hope they win out their final conference games and then on to the playoffs.
  • 2018 Recruiting List
    Talk about two sport athletes. Does anyone remember TIM LAJCIK? He was an all american in football and wrestling at UCD. He is a UCD hall of fame person. He then got into WWC. You have to see this youtube of him: “Tim Lajcik: Unlocking the Cage”. You will be very proud of an Aggie that did all the fighting stuff, then acting and is very well and soft spoken and intelligent about all things we all can elate to. Tim is a very impressive guy and a role model. Wish we had him now!

    I do understand the need for confidentiality and respect for the player- Chima Moneke. I do not understand the lack of transparency for the process. Total silence from the AD. If he will not play for the rest of the season I think we, th fans, need to know.
  • LA Times says Napolitano to cut UCOP budget by 50%
    Good point fug. UCOP stole the strawberry program when it was making the big bucks patentwise. Apparently thought Davis was not “sophisticated” enough to know how to run the program. I Knew someone from Davis that then had to commute to Oakland from Davis every day (train) to help them with the program. That was way before Napolitano. But as we all know, the strawberry program then got entangled in multiple patent disputes and lawsuits that lasted for years. But maybe Napolitano sees the light: UCOP- too many people and not enough to do in downtown Oakland. I think we got the strawberry program back, but I really don’t know how that all played out.
  • MBB 7 pm Thursday: UCSB (18-5 & 7-2) @ the Aggies (16-7 & 7-2) Game Thread
    The big diffference between this game and the LB game was defense and that SB knew we had no inside game without Chima. So they played the defense perimeter strong and we had no answer. Actually was a very good game to watch. We have favorite nieces at SB who we love and we had to give them a call of congrats!! Really hard not to like either of these teams.
  • WBB 7 pm Wednesday: Cal Poly (13-8 & 7-2) @ the Aggies (18-4 & 8-1)
    yes, a very good game. but it was never really in doubt for the Ags. Leaupepe was unconscious from the 3 land, but overall the Ags shot the 3 better, better FG %, better TOs, better, assists, etc. I think we will see CP in the tournament for sure. they are a much better team than CSUN for sure. great game for the Bertch.
  • WBB 7 pm Wednesday: Cal Poly (13-8 & 7-2) @ the Aggies (18-4 & 8-1)
    I think we will be fine. For some inexplicable reason most teams just do not try and FC press on the road. Why? Do not know. Maybe there is just no fan support to up the hype of the strategy. Also it came as a complete surprise at CP in the last quarter. Ags did not respond well. Not this time if it comes.

    This an example of thread that has gone really bad. Now we are reduced to Comparing rankings between two of the best public’s in the nation. This is just rediculous. Dig enough and you will find a poll that supports any position you want!
  • Chima Moneke Suspended Indefinitely
    Does Chima play on? Absolutely no reason now to announce before the SB game. Make SB prep for any situation that plays out. Does anyone know if he is practicing?
  • Chima Moneke Suspended Indefinitely
    I totally agree; but i will say if there was a felony charge there would have been a booking and that would be public record. That there IS NOT is a great sign that this is not the situation at all. So, no further comment until we hear the facts.
  • New woman’s sport
    The aggie had an article on the meeting. Good attendance. A lot of participation. No mention of any particular sport, except rowing and that was from an alumna rower. Seems that it is a sport that checks all the boxes for Blue.
  • Chima Moneke Suspended Indefinitely
    Hate to be a bringer of possible bad news, but a quick reading of the UC Davis sports eligibility policy website says that if an infraction of the law occurs by a student athlete it will be referred to the Student Judicial Council for review and for any action to be taken. The student athletes rights will be protected in the process. Only in paragraph 6 does it seem to state that if the infraction involves a student athlete “charged” with a felony is immediate suspension required. I don’t purport to be an expert on the subject, but it does not look good for Chima by my quick reading of the rules. Then again the delay may just be the judicial council getting involved and there apparently is no police report which is good. I sincerely hope that I am completely wrong! Seems very out of character for this impresssive young man.
