Not at the moment

Back in the seventies when we hosted Reno the game program stated that they were our oldest rival dating back to 1912 or something similar. I’m in favor of playing all the local non pac 12 teams, I know we can get blown out by any of them but they’re all up and down and it could be competitive.

Davis dropped wrestling in 2010.
Up until then we had occasional football players in wrestling team.
Davis was prominent wrestling team with a national reputation.

Davis used to participate in the PAC-12 in wrestling until we dropped the sport.
We had several football players who wrestled.
When we first played North Dakota State we dominated their offfenaive line and their coach said that Davis and Cal Poly’s defensive line were like wrestlers and they couldnt get them off their feet.
Leads to the question: is there much overlap in skills between wrestling and defensive line?

Remember we are adding two premium defensive line recruits to the five who were either freshmen or redshirts last year. Haven’t seen these guys much yet there are some quality recruits among the redshirts and last years freshmen. Few players make large contributions as freshmen, but come into their own as sophomores and juniors. Similar in regards to the rest of the defense. We won’t be the same team on D next year as this last.

10 offense 7 defense is not really unbalanced. Players sometimes change sides also, some of the offensive players were two way players.
In a way as the position names reflect there are fewer distinct defensive positions. DL LB and DB as compared to OL, TE, WR, RB, QB.
Offer scholarships to best players, even if it doesn’t seem to be an immediate need. Probably will balance out over time. Worst thing is to waste scholarships on guys who don’t warrant one.

UCD will also bring in scores of walk-ons, including Bee All-Metro linebacker Jason Gallagher of Jesuit, All-Metro tight end Garren O’Keefe of Colfax and All-Metro utility player Justin Poerio of Oak Ridge.

A score is twenty, plural implies at least 40. I think that’s probably an exaggeration.

on the Aggie site video Matt looks like an all around TE. Blocking and catching. Looks big against JC opponents. Played one year of varsity basketball at Montgomery and was honorable mention all league.
We added an entire offensive unit except running backs, with a couple of additional receivers thrown in.

Matt Hyman from my high school, and JC. Was he on the list before today? Go Matt!

Nice class. Pesefea? Sure looked like he's going to play for us based on family tweets

4.6 in the 40 is ok but not too great for a 5’7” running back. Seems to have good hands and is pretty shifty. But I think Gilliam from last year was bigger and the same speed.

and 0 running backs after only two last year, if you exclude the ccsf transfer last year. What if anything do we know about redshirt Ulonzo Gilliam? We need a speed tailback as a change of pace even if we go with Tehran as the primary tailback. None of our returning tailbacks have above average speed for this level.

Do you find it interesting that none of the guys on the list in page 1 went to FCS schools in our state or our league? Almost all FBS. Perhaps we lost some that were never on your list but it appears as though our peers are not our competitors in recruiting? Surely some player we offered picked Cal Poly or San Diego... No?

Good to hear Josiah is mobile

Perhaps the number of DBs recruited this year are intended to address the coverage issue Thetoe highlights.

They may not have started but Inoke Raikadroka and Zack Pettit played some as freshmen. I’m sure there are others
We’re kind of thin at DT so there is an opportunity if he can seize it.

I saw where San Jose blames their tough season due to playing two ranked teams and Texas on the road to start season. Said it led to injuries to their young physically immature players. They apparently brought in 40 players last year so have a lot of young guys. They hope working on strength will lead to improvement and avoid injury,
Same prescription a good idea for us.

Can't complain about league games being too tough. The whole point is to get to where we win those games,
San Jose State game is a great opportunity for a win.
I wish we stopped scheduling Stanford

Gunner had notable success at Pace Academy in Georgia. Multi year starter, started some games as a freshman.
Hunter rushed for 14 touchdowns 4.0 average longest 62 yards. 478 yards total

Does anyone have any observation regarding Gunner Faulk in comparison with Hunter Rodriguez, another “local” to Sacramento Area QB, but with one year at American River? Both had great HS stats, both similar size.

I agree with you on the need for improvement. I hope last years recruiting class has a few additional players who can really contribute because we brought in 30 guys. We'll find out soon. If you look at both last year's and this year's additions, we have recruited every position. I hope we hear some good reports out of spring practice
