7 stories is quite an accomplishment for Davis. That must've taken some very good convincing.

Cal has the money to buy out games?

Look forward to following UCD baseball a bit more closely next season. I've got old junior college buddies coaching at LSU so I've been following them a lot harder.

The regional games this post season have been phenomenal.

It's tough to damn near impossible to build anything tall in Davis.

Would be nice if they opened up a decent capacity sized bar and grill right there for students.

Yeah, the old Davis Grad closed down in 2019 I think, I was working there that summer building a bridge on the south side of campus - went there a lot for lunch for old time sake, the new Athletic Performance Center north of UCDH Stadium was also getting graded and was just beginning to go up. Made me sad, was a huge easy place to watch just about any game available, open at 9 am Saturday, burgers, fries, onion rings, beers and booze - games in the back - we saw some great World Cups there, lots of international students in Davis obviously, huge turnouts, it was funny watching all the Spain fans go out at halftime and be smoking cigarettes in a circle talking about the match. The Brasil matches were a must to go to because all the sparkling ladies would show up and be cheering on the mighty Seleção Canarinha.

Used to be big also for the locals in Yolo County and beyond, they'd come in there late on Saturdays and do country dancing. A lot of farmers and ranchers filled that parking lot on Saturday nights.

I heard they were rebuilding that area - haven't been there since last fall, but I thought there was a plan for a 3 or 4 story condo tower, probably multi-use, with Starbucks etc. down below - very popular spot for coffee and bubble tea drinkers.

Two good spots, also out of town, go try Plainfield Station, a lot of local farmers and weekend bikers like to hang there. it can be pretty quiet, but when it fills up, it's a fun spot.

Pietro aka "Pete" will hook you up.

52, man. Larry was a massive man and a stud for years. RIP big Lar.

Well, given the experience in place and the skill sets, this will showcase what kind of coordination we'll get on offense to play to Davis' current strengths.

I've been thinking all off-season how Hastings will run Shredville...it's so not his game...but Plough does have Larison for one more year...it has to be a Larison centered offense right?

Shredville mindset is aggressive and attacking, requires a tremendous level of conditioning, both physically and mentally. Defensively, I imagine the emphasis is to create turnovers and be opportunistic.

Is Huard still considered a "5 Star" QB at this point?

Cleeland kid comes from a really good northwest football family, dad played at UW, drafted 2nd Round, played for the Saints and the Patriots -- got caught up in some bs late-90's hazing incident that ended up hurting his eyesight for life.

Plays at Jesuit HS, a Portland area power - can dunk - has great athleticism and a live arm. Crusaders love the deep ball thanks to Cleeland's arm talent, and they have QB run packages that he also executes with his above average speed and agility.

Some solid offers here. Good young men

Encouraging Lineup...who's playing LB for UC Davis - that'll be the big ask this fall. No doubt we're looking for some transfer guys who are No. 3 / No. 4 on the depth chart at Boise, Nevada, Utah State, Arizona...

Thanks for the updates, looks like the Plough boys are getting after it.

Good question, I don't know if I've seen a release on last season's winners.

Honestly, there are so many players, without a massive, massive network of scouts and input people, it's not surprising they have the scrape the barrel for information on all kinds of prospects -- especially at the FCS lower/mid tier FBS level.

Yup, still no offensive coordinator on the coaching list.

Hoping Kennedy has a massive year. Obviously, offensive lines will roll their chips and blocking packages to secure him, but coming into his what senior year? Guy should be primed for his big reveal for pro scouts.

Vargas is a bigger back, no question.
