Finally got to it. Yes with Siler back on track it will take a lot off of China’s shoulders. Beach probably the most athletic team in the BW and we stopped them!

Do not see this game on stream. Any help.

I agree. Still wonder why no announcement on how the initial public meeting went. Is there a next one set?

I agree with 6th and zythe. I also reread some of the press clippings of the 2011 judges decision on the UC Davis wrestling case. I think i may be off base in getting the scholarship issue mixed up with TIX requirements. The judge in the wrestling case clearly stated that compliance with TIX can be done by offering athletic opportunities to woman in proportion to their share of overall enrollment. The key word bring “opportunities.” He did not say that any given woman’s sport has to be funded in any particular proportional way. I read that to say that if we bring back woman’s rowing we do not have to necessarily grant scholarships to all or even any of the participants because they will be provided the opportunity to participate. I understand that there might be more clarifying language in the final settlement papers but i did not read them. That could change things obviously.

Movie, wish we could but we can’t. Prop 209 prohibits affirmative action based on race, ethnicity, OR gender. So, i think were back to woman’s rowing; but the real question is who PAYS FOR IT? Cal has 67 women on its roster, including 15 foreign. Even if most are not on full schollies, thats a very expensive sport to fund and probably why it was cut in the first place. 6th, your question is a good one and the answer is that it is probably the most highly classified piece of information on the campus. But you have to know the breakdown is not close to being even because of the need to add this new woman’s sport. I think its also a valid to question to ask under TIX whether ICA can even require this sport to be “self funded” when others (no men’s sport) are not. This is Dr. Blue’s big problem and is why he gets the big bucks. I wish him well.

I will take you back to the 70s!: guard Gordon Baranco! Slasher/driver and a lot like TJ. Great leader on the court as well. Later was a very respected and fine s
Superior Court judge in Alameda county.

We have a huge gender imbalance issue here. We are close to 60-40 woman to men. in comparison, CP is about 56-44 men to woman. Even sac is slightly better at 56-44 woman’s to men. Stanford 51-49. Cal 52-47 woman to men. I am sure the administration is worried about this. How can a very science/ag/engineering university be so much more attractive to women than men? One could argue that its a good thing. The campus is seen as academically high quality, attractive and safe. The town of davis is very appealing and also safe. This is important to woman and more importantly to their parents. Not so much guys. So (get ready for this!) i think that we will have to be eliminating football in the next 10 years. There’s simply no other way out of this dilemma. OK, so maybe not if we add: woman’s rowing, fencing, beach VB, badminton, squash, sailing like Stanford. Hate to say this stuff. Make me wrong!!!

Yes, its a 2 player team per side. So the numbers will not work out for TIX issues. We will have to put a lot more women in new sport slots (not just more slots from the WVB team). I see the problem in the philanthropy because we just do not have the alumni base that Stanford, cal, or even st Mary’s has. So its probably got to be on the parents to pull this one off. We better figure something out fast, because if we don’t we will have to eliminate a men’s team to comply with TIX.

So they win by 20 trying to “keep the score down”and the refs disprected them and favored us? Then the killer- we throw up a 3 by a reserve that misses at the clock. So baaad!! I believe Taylor applied for our HC position, but he is a hothead. Glad we didn’t hire him. Also, This Khalil may be a good player- given. That he should be such an idiot not so much. Yes, much swagger to this FS team and a lot not to like or respect. Hope the rest of the BW is watching. Also, very poor attendance at 1200+. Or Is that the average for them? We will probably put 3000+ in the stands for the replay.

Jason cox? Got us the D2 championship.

Well, thats about all we get out of this game. A unnecessary and stupid Fullerton game ending episode. Good for the Aggies game preparation next time. Not a smart Fullerton move. Very Disappointed in their coach an aggie alum.

This will be the first ICA sport that is (entirely?) supported by philanthropic means. So, this is a big test and an issue that we have never encountered before or know what to reasonably expect. Will this be the parents of the players? Alums? I believe that the parents of the field hockey team did pony up for the new hockey field. Apparently it was Berkeley alums who saved the MBB team there from being cut. However we don’t have the alum base by a mile that Berkeley has. Also, this will be a “new team” not an attempt to save an old team with a lot of pride and history (see Jackie Jensen at Berkeley). So my bet is that it will have to be the parents who will mostly pay for this sport at least to get it off the ground. Now the second issue is this (and I don’t know the answer): does TIX required that this new team have funding for an equal number of scholarships to comply with the law? Can philanthropic funds provide this? I don’t think so for a huge team like rowing. So, sorry, i think we are looking at beach volleyball or cheering. Fencing? Hope i am wrong. (How many players on a beach volleyball team? I think 2 that play- i do not know).

Back to the starting topic- is there going to be a report or announcement about the new woman’s sport public meeting? Anyone go?

Goags. Go for the rant! Lord knows i have done it on this site. Good for you!

Goags. I have no idea what you are talking about. “The Pavilion” is ridiculous? As a name? As a site? “Smelly”? Be careful what you say people read this stuff./ . . .

China one handed dunk? Unbelievable. Great game for the Ags.
Also a great game for the ladies Pela back in for form; and Cierra as a 5’10” point? Who will ever defend her?

January 15 is when we will know. Fingers crossed indeed.

Did anyone attend forum?

Sure hope you guys are right and he comes back. He must have gotten some smart advice from a neutral party. If he does as well or better next year his stock will rise exponentially at the next level.

CP just seems to have a lot of big givers for athletics which we don’t have. I would task Dr Blue to find out why that is so. We sure have a lot of academic giving- But not much for big athletic projects. If not for Bruce Edwards and the Schalls we would be close to zero. Do not have any idea as to why this is.
