Don’t talk politics or religion, but it’s not “woke” to refrain from bulling or belittling staff…

…or if he works out TOO well and Stanford recruits him to replace the departed alleged bully…

The title of the article, as printed on the ESPN website is "Reports find Stanford's Taylor bullied, belittled female staffers" In other places on the ESPN website there is a link to the article that reads "Reports: Stanford coach bullied athletics staff."

Speculation on the Slack State board that Stanford is doing the preliminary work to make it easier to let him go if the team has another losing season. Also there is some "I heard rumors about this kind of conduct when he was at Sac." Ironic for a board that in the middle of last season had posters projecting that he would eventually return to Sac and re-establish the glory.

Whittier is reinstating football for the 2026-27 season to coincide with the admission of Azusa Pacific , so the conference will have eight football teams.

Just working off my aging memory I don't think there are any D-2 football teams in California anymore. I think Humboldt was the last one standing. I think the only D-3 football teams are those in the SCIAC. The last I heard the Lincoln Oaklanders are still not members of the NCAA or NAIA in any division.

"But I could be wrong."

Has the WNIT become one of those lower rated tournaments where teams pay to participate?


The WNIT website says Auto qualifiers are "Teams that were the highest regular-season finishers in their conference that did not receive a bid into the NCAA Tournament or WBIT."

In a quick look I don't see any mention of the Big West or Big Sky. There are probably others...Big 12? SEC?

WNIT is owned by a company out of Ft. Collins, CO that conducts several tournaments in basketball and volleyball. I cannot help but wonder if participation is a pay to play situation or a contract with the conferences. Then I wonder about a lot of things anymore.

UCD defeated Sac in gymnastics in a match at Sacramento tonight 195.800 - 195.250.
Running Causeway score is now UCD 51.6, CSUS 9.1.

Next scheduled meeting is in beach volleyball in the Big West Challenge in San Luis Obispo on March 22.

Rough day for softball as the Aggies lost to Sac, 10-2 in five innings, as the mercy rule or run-ahead rule was invoked in a game at Davis.

Causeway score is now UCD 49.1, CSUS 9.1.

Next event is gynastics on March 14 in Sacramento.

Sac defeated the Aggie women in softball this afternoon, 6-5, in a game in Sacramento.

Running Causeway Cup score is UCD 49.1, CSUS 6.6.

Next Causeway event is a return softball game on March 2nd to be played in Davis.

CSUS finished in 2nd place of 12 teams with a three round score of 855, while the Ags finished in 4th place with a final score or 873 strokes.

Running Causeway score is UCD 49.1, CSUS 4.1

Next event, I think, is softball tomorrow in Sacramento.

Hardly surprising for someone born during the Truman administration, but I goofed on the dates for the women's Causeway Invitational golf meet. It started yesterday, the 24th, and concludes today, the 25th. After two rounds the Ags are in third place, 14 strokes behind Sac and Oregon State who are tied for first, and one stroke ahead of fourth place Cal Poly.

(Update: and the team is not having a good round this morning.)

Yet another question mark for the rumored Sac move to Pac-x or some other FBS conference. Conference athletics are more than one sport. So far in the 2024-25 season, with the completion of fall sports and well into the basketball seasons, only Sac's volleyball team has a winning record. Very litttle likelihood that either of the basketball teams is going to change that.

Aggie gymnastics defeated Sac State, 195.175 - 194.750 in a dual meet in Davis this afternoon. Causeway score is now UCD 49.1 - CSUS 2.5.

Next event is softball in Sacramento on February 26 and women’s golf at the Causeway Classic at the Del Paso Country Club in Sacramento on February 26th and 27th.

Aggie men’s tennis team defeated Sac, 4-1, today in a match held in Sacramento. This puts the Causeway score at UCD 46.6 - CSUS 2.5, and gives the Ags the Causeway Cup for the 2024-25 year.

Next scheduled event is gymnastics this coming Sunday, February 16th at Davis.

Looks like there is a third scheduled competition between women's golf teams, the Dr. Donnis Thompson Invitational in Maui, HI, on March 24-26. Each women's golf event is now worth 1.6 points rather than 2.5, (leaving us with that annoying one-hundredth of a point just sitting there waiting to be awarded). Score is now UCD 41.6, CSUS 2.5.

UCD finished fourth with 192.600 points and Sac finished third with 193.000 point in a four team event in San Jose. Boise State came in first and host San Jose State was second.

This is not part of a home and away dual meet competition so the results do not count in the Causeway Cup. Next scheduled Causeway Cup competition is men's tennis on February 14th in Sacramento. The two gymnastic teams will compete in a dual meet on February 16th in Davis.

Meanwhile there is an article on the Sac Bee website reporting that Sac State as a whole is facing a $45 million budget cut.

Added beach volleyball. This should complete the schedule, but Spring schedules should always be written in pencil.

Go Ags!
