I feel like he has brought a calming presence to campus. — zythe

I would agree with that. I also think he has been very supportive of athletics. It is common to see him at bball and football games. Not crazy about him using his position as Chancellor to support his political ideology (mainly through FB postings that I have seen). And when he was challenged the comments quietly disappeared.

Interesting. He was fired by WSU after having the worst record in their history. Not sure what he did at Sac State. But Hawk knows talent so hopefully he will contribute.

Finn, you might want to add talent in that equation :).

I doubt you'll see any of that in the Bee. They wouldn't want to hurt Sucs feelings :).

Agreed. And the game tickets MUST be bought as a package deal with the tailgate pass, $80 each. At that price i think they will be shooting themselves in the foot.

I doubt I will do the bus. For those familiar with the most efficient methods of getting in and out of Cal, any suggestions? Drive to Richmond and take BART? I see Amtrak has an option for $40 round trip from Davis as well.

Reasonable article. Give Jake time and he is going to do well. As is often the case, the game will be won and lost in the trenches unless Jake becomes more mobile. In contrast to our previous coaching staff, Hawk has his guys ready to go game 1. Score against Cal? Vegas has it 11-30 for Cal.

The boosters there have a lot of power.

Thats the truth, big time. I went to HS down there. Several of my close friends ended up at SC. Their booster and alumni network is remarkable. And that kind of $ talks the talk and walks the walk.

Wasn't it Weber a few years ago that gave Cal everything they could handle? As i recall, Cal had to come back from being down.

Great accolades for the program, but I think I would rather be rated lower down the list and prove them wrong.

Any updates on the Band-uh status? They will be worth a TD at Cal.

Maier’s pass-catching corps will have much to prove in the wake of Doss’ departure, but it still features two key pieces that have the skillset to keep things rolling. Junior wideout Jared Harrell was the Aggies’ second-leading receiver in 2018, catching 62 passes for 896 yards and 5 touchdowns. He’ll be complemented by senior tight end Wes Preece, who had a breakout sophomore year in 2017 and tied Doss with nine receiving touchdowns last year.

I think athletics did a good job utilizing the available footprint. I hope they have a plan for a gathering place for the students, which i did not see addressed in the press release.

Back in the day my roommates and I carved the Krebs cycle onto one of the wooden tables. Back then they allowed carvings on the tables

As for Cal tix, haven't heard a thing - was nosing around online but am still looking for the Aggie Pack, wherever they might be. — AggieFinn

They are available on the Cal site. At some point, I am sure athletics will link it from our football schedule page.

"Bringing both of these teams to Torero Stadium will be exciting for our players, our coaches and our fans," said McGillis. "We have one of the best venues for college football at San Diego and we are excited to continue competing against top-notch programs from outstanding universities."

And as Mike said, this is always a scary game. But I feel much better about it under Hawk.

Just booked my flights for the SD game. Alaska has some dynamite deals at the moment.

In my honest opinion I think the Aggies will be just fine. Hawkins and company have been doing very well in recruiting since they came in. I think Harrell will be ready to take over WR1 from Doss.

I absolutely agree, but I worry about the big hits he takes. He got leveled at Ew.

Some years ago there was a mountain lion south of the airport. They get here via the putah creek riparian habitat.

I’m assuming the Team Aggie tent is moving over to Lot 56. It won’t be consolidated as before, but it will work

That’s what I was told, lot 56. Seems like parking is going to be tighter.
