Yeah that was a fun tailgate

2/11/2022 email from chancellor: mask mandate for indoors will remain in effect through winter quarter. For me, I’m so use to wearing them i feel naked in public without one on, lol.

And she’s a freshman. She is a real bright spot for the future.

Remember S. Alabama? They took it to us their first year. Campbell sounds a bit like them.

27-21 at half. Ucsd made a run early in the second quarter. Feels like the momentum is moving towards the Tritons.

12-2 Ags at the end of the first quarter. Defense looking good, 3s dropping.

Here we go! Lets go ladies!

Beyond the bummer from the fans perspective, the student athletes must be devastated. If games are cancelled, i would assume practice is as well?

“the Honolulu paper this morning: Hawaii effectively handed us the win by going through a turnover epidemic with about 8 minutes left in the game.”

I hope they mentioned that we were handing it back to them with our FT shooting, lol.

“ I was a bit surprised Bora didn’t get any court time.”
Same here. I think he is the tallest guy we have and seems to shine on defense and grabbing offensive rebounds.

Yeah, the elbows were flying. OK, homer here, but i thought Hawaii got away with several cheap shots, accidental maybe? Pepper took a big shot to the head in front of the aggie bench, and i think it was Manjon who took it to the eye on the other side.

Just home from the game. Hawaii came out shooting lights out in the opening half and second half, then cooled off. As mentioned, this game would have been put away earlier if we were hitting the FTs. But down 17 or so then Pepper had two huge steals and buckets and before you knew it, we were back in the game. Nail biter at the end, great win.

Warriors are a 3 pt underdog tonight. Go Ags!

Talking defense, i really like the energy that Debruhl brings off the bench. I don’t think he has impressive FG numbers, but good defensive effort.

Yes i remember Hawkins talking about Pickett’s baseball skills. He sure stressed the fact that one of the receiver recruits ran track and had impressive speed. Maybe it was Gbatu but he’s 5’10”. Too bad they don’t record the evening highlights. On the other hand, we don’t want to make too much inside info public.

Sounded like it. And there was a freshman from Socal, tall kid, that has break away speed that also ran track. He commented about loosing Harrel. Sounded like replacing him was on the agenda.

I don’t remember Hawk specifically addressing the qb competition, but that was certainly heard in conversation around the room, which is speculation but everyone is anticipating a healthy competition for “the guy.”

Wife and i attended. Attendance was lower then previous years. Hawk was true to form. Always life messages in his speeches. He said this class was a small class, but talented. He played the recruit video and made comments along the way. He seemed pleased with the receivers they brought in as well as the entire group. He keeps his cards tight, but i got the impression he was especially pleased with Kraut, but was careful not to praise one kid over another. He did say the training facility has already made an impact on recruiting.

Newman closed out September with back-to-back games of 400+ yards passing and four touchdowns. On Sept. 18, he threw 27 for 40 with 419 yards passing at Modesto Junior College and wrapped up the month with a 27 for 37 performance with 417 yards against American River College.”

Newman interview at Cal. Seems like a very articulate young man.
