  • Low Interest in Men's Basketball?


    There is room for about 1,200 in upper hickey and it obviously lacks the infrastructure necessary for even D3 competition at this point. We’re dancing around the same issue here and with football. The issue is money. The money is not coming from donors so either the university takes a massive step forward in its prioritization of MBB and FB or it is heading into a suicide mission in the MWC.

    Huge! His magic beans are really delivering.
  • Low Interest in Men's Basketball?
    Mediocre on the court coupled with butchering the rec hall, killing the band-uh, which was the energy behind the program, and discontinuing the Aggie Pack freshman programs out of laziness. Moving to the MWC does nothing to fix any of this and triples the operating cost.

    Wood is an idiot. The guy is not qualified to run an ice cream stand. In any other place he’d already be run out of town.
  • UC Davis Athletics Joining Mountain West - Football to Follow


    It means Davis is basically joining the WAC. Which was predictable from the outset.

    The corners and the clearance are problems. Also that’s expensive! Davis could do a larger version of McCarthy at Ganzaga within the existing building footprint. The hoops programs really need more seats that are closer to the floor.

    Important to note the drop down guys were all on scholarship and have starting experience. Very different than guys moving down a level from a walk-on roll. Rutchena switched to TE since Cal was thin there but will be back to LB in Davis.

    They didn’t even have enough funding to provide the poor fella with knee length football pants. That’s no way to live.

    This guy is a downgrade from Tolliver. Suspended to start the year at Pitt then benched. I’d rather have Reggie Hammond.

    SJSU is far and away the worst venue in the conference. The rest are 8-12k except Vegas and New Mexico.
  • Sac State's bid for the Pac 12 Thread


    Campus Rec and Facilities have really butchered the place and ICA doesn’t have the leadership to take them to task. They have had multiple chances to get the seating right since the days of the wood bleachers but can’t get out of their own way. The building itself makes for a perfectly fine 6,500 seat venue if they would just put in the telescoping seats and a central score and video board. The lower level seating is way too far from the action and the wine and merch station is an atmosphere killer. Of course, fixing the joint would mean getting rid of that horrible overhead dividing net and that may be a bridge too far.

    It’s not poaching when you bring in a bunch of players that have been cut from or kicked off their previous team. At least Santi Hall was on the roster for Causeway, most of these guys will not.
  • Is there any action on the transfer portal?


    Totally agree with you on skill set but Gale was never really an in-line TE. He’s a big slot and that should have been a valuable role considering the lack of speed outside and the size of the inside receivers. It was 10 vs 11 the first half of the year with Williams plugged in to that H spot.

    That’s a good landing spot. Make a few bucks, get some free grad school and have a legit shot at pt.
  • MBB: UC Davis (8-6- 2-1) at CSUN (10-4, 2-1), Saturday, Jan. 4 at 3:00 pm


    The MWC teams have some money allocated to NIL. Davis will need to figure out if it wants to be in the business of paying players. If it does not, moving up will be a colossal failure. Recruiting these days has almost nothing to do with the school, the coach or anything else. It comes down entirely to the best financial offer.

    New staffs come in and cut guys immediately. Even happening with hs players that just set foot on campus.

    Roice Cleeland transferring in from UW where he was a walk-on guard. One of Cam’s kids. Prepped at Portland-Jesuit. Should have 3 years of eligibility.

    That is a Pollyanna view of lower division athletics. You brought up Wise earlier. See the irony?
  • Is there any action on the transfer portal?


    Nobody is debating that the NFL will find NFL talent. Most guys are not NFL talent. The roster spot alone in the SEC pays 100k, compared to 0 at the lower levels. Most guys do and probably should take that bag of cash.

    Because you get paid in that pond and those Aggie names were 100 years ago. Surprised Bains hasn’t found higher level interest as an experienced depth piece.
