He suffered a heart attack while golfing

Just to correct myself, he played 77-80 for Davis. I believe he was FWC defensive player of the year in 80

I was having this conversation a couple weeks backs with people that have more clout than me. Recruiting seems to be a major issue. Unlike football, it’s hard to make inroads in SOCal amidst the vast talent pool when you are going up against mostly SOCal teams. We have to beat Sac Statd for the best of the valley, and start to grab the kids in the East Bay. I haven’t watched enough to comment on coaching. Talent wins more often than not

Another honor, along with Perryman

Best of luck to Kennedy. Hard-nosed kid who brought energy every time he was on the court. I think his ‘transfer’ was a numbers game - no room for another grad transfer.

Interesting article on the subject

I got the impression that recruits only had to have the UC required GPA of 3.0 in the core classes to be eligible for admission. I’ve never heard coaches mention SAT scores when discussing the eligible pool of recruits.

I can’t think of any in recent history with larger rosters, both NFL and NCAA. Apparently it happens in the CFL with smaller game day rosters.

OL/kickers? Maybe Lou Groza?

yes; rarely see combo kickers. Much different kicking motions. I think we often have a separate guy for kickoffs!

Herb Schnamberger hired him as an assistant (baseball assistant also). Not sure the AD who made them him the varsity coach.

Hawkins was a game changer for the men’s program!

I can’t recall him ever miskicking a punt. His consistency is incredible

threw it really really hard.....no matter if he needed to or not!

I think he’s much more accurate than Kap. He never seemed to hit a receiver in stride.

shocking, just shocking!!!

I think the post about cutting baseball was misposted

i think some of the selections were driven by schools that put in bids to host. I know we came out and said we had no interest in hosting (this was prior to the EWU game).

he is a VERY bright kid. Met him at an EVO event and he has a big future ahead of him. Aerospace Science & Engineering Major. I think both parents are professors or at least PhD’s

I don’t think so. I think that was referring to him not making all conference based on his past accolades.

ouch. We went up for football in 2019 and we didn’t enjoy the city. Columbia River is beautiful. Downtown Portland was a little scary back then
