Some of you may prefer long commutes from exurban heat but most people don't, which is why it's a lot more expensive to live in close in, nice neighborhoods. I don't know where Wilcox's staff lives but Sonny Dykes lived in this house on the Oakland/Piedmont border. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Piedmont/271-Crocker-Ave-94610/home/526622

I don't think he will be a top candidate anyways, so this discussion is moot

1. It is not obvious that Cal would fire Plough after 3 years. Wilcox just got 9 years, and made tens of millions of dollars, by going .500.
2. Davis is a great town but Berkeley also has positive attributes. There are reasons it is ~twice as expensive a housing market as Davis.
3. When you're signing a contract for $30 million or whatever, you're not going to be sweating the moving costs.
4. This is all a crazy discussion - obviously if he can 10x his salary, he should and is going to take it.

If he can 10x his salary, yes he should obviously go

It's possible he'll get a look, but it's a thin resume for as big a job as Cal. Two years of relatively impressive success at FCS level, but no record of building a dominant, championship program. There are other candidates who have more experience at the higher, G5 level and other hotshot coordinators from the P5 level who will have a leg up.

I doubt Plough would be a serious candidate until he had a few more years of high level winning here, including a championship or two

I was thinking of the SFA game in 2005:

Despite losing their starting quarterback in the first quarter, the Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks rallied Saturday night to defeat No. 21 UC Davis, 27-17, at Homer Bryce Stadium. The `Jacks scored 20 unanswered points in the second half to improve to 5-4 on the season.

Well, also don't take day games in the South in August. It is hot in Davis but I don't think we have a great track record dealing with southern heat and humidity.

How much of that $265 mil is in hand? Or is this release the start of fundraising?

Renderings are a little rudimentary but it's nice to see that football is a phase 1 priority. I trust they've done the due diligence to figure out six suites plus that club seating is something that is realistic to fill in a profitable manner. Hopefully there are next phase general seating expansions planned as well.

Yeah I didn't understand why the clock stopped at the time ... he landed in bounds but rolled/slid on his back out of bounds? How is that possible?

It's pretty insane to voluntarily trade Saturday games vs Davis, CP, Montana, etc for Tuesday/Wednesday vs Akron and Ball State

I guess they must be saying it was just a bad enough call on first impression that it was misconduct worthy of suspension

I reluctantly find myself in agreement with Kadeezy. Once the incorrect call was made on the field, what were the refs supposed to do with the replay review? There was no angle that supported reversing the initial call. Maybe that's a conference problem that they didn't have a camera with an appropriate view. The refs were in an impossible situation after the initial bad call was made - I'd be pissed if I were them

They added one more game for 2026: 11/21 Southern Utah at home. So that's 4. Only 8 spots to fill

Well they added a (very expensive) game for 2026 but seemingly lost another in the process https://fbschedules.com/sacramento-state-adds-youngstown-state-to-2026-football-schedule/#google_vignette

Hopefully not benchmarking against Sac

Did he really say that? When?

Watching him run the first time, I couldn’t help but think, ok get him off. Don’t push it here, he’s going to get hurt or fumble.

17k???
