That was a total surprise. I’m glad Idaho state grabbed him and not the hornets, lol.

“Multiple national reports have identified Sacramento State coach Troy Taylor and former Dallas Cowboys coach Jason Garrett as finalists for the Stanford football post that was vacated when David Shaw resigned last month.

Taylor is a well-known name in Northern California. He earned his third Big Sky Conference Coach of the Year award this season in addition to being named AFCA Region 5 FCS Coach of the Year this week. Taylor has led the Hornets to a 12-0 record and the No. 2 national FCS ranking heading into Friday night’s quarterfinal playoff game against Incarnate Word of San Antonio.”

“The Stanford job would, of course, mean a significant boost in salary if Taylor is offered the job and he accepts. Taylor makes about $250,000 in base salary with Sacramento State, which can be surpassed with a number of bonuses, such as Coach of the Year honors. Stanford paid Shaw in excess of $6 million annually. Even half of that salary would be a towering figure over what Sacramento State could offer.

Sacramento State athletic director Mark Orr has told The Bee multiple times that his biggest concern is losing Taylor, and the one-time Cal cornerback added last week, “Every big college football job should have Troy Taylor on their list. He’s that good. Of course, we don’t want to lose him.”

I’m surprised this info was released while sac is still in the playoffs.

Well, if he wasn’t interested I doubt he would visit the campus.
Regarding taking players with him, they’ll have to be able to pass university level classes, lol.

KCRA reporting tonight that Taylor is in the final two for the Stanford HC position.

Sac Bee this morning said Sac pushed for the friday game to beat out the weather on saturday. Not sure how far in advance they would have had to do that if its true. Either way, a rain free game seems to play into Incarnate Word’s hand more so than Sac’s.

Welcome Greg! You’ll get great (free) advice here, lol. Free giveaways are always popular, such as the student bike giveaways at football games this season, and free T shirts are always nice. But on a bigger scope, our student base these days has a large contingent of international students. Football and basketball may not have been part of their culture. Educating the students about these sports regarding how fun it is to attend and when do you cheer, when do you make noise, and when should you be quiet. How about recognizing a group of students who are attending their first football game? Give them a free shirt to wear and recognize them during the game.

Wow, big time program. I hope he gets plenty of playing time.

I really don’t think moving commencement to the Golden 1 will hurt Davis businesses. The students are still living in and around Davis. Mom and dad will arrive a few days before graduation, take their kids shopping, and enjoy Davis restaurants. Davis restaurants are packed during graduation. I expect them to remain that way with a Golden 1 ceremony, as well as the hotels.

“ Wulff was hired as Sacramento State's assistant head coach, run game coordinator and offensive line coach in 2016 and was with the Hornets for three seasons. Last fall, Wulff was a volunteer assistant coach at UC Davis.”

So he was an assistant at UC Davis and poly?

Right now they’re calling for a chance of showers for that game. They should be able to nail it down as it gets closer.

Some how slac always pulls off the close games. I thought Richmond was going to take them.

31-31 early in 4th. Sac keeps coming back in spite of turnovers.

Richmond D is rock solid as well.

21-7 Richmond, 2nd quarter.

That part was obvious I thought.

Richmond QB throws a nice ball. 7-7 1st quarter.

I’d like to see Poly’s program improve, as long as we can still beat them.

Speed and good hands. Some of his one handed catches were tremendous.

Well, it got exciting in the last minute, but it didn’t need to be. Uop seemed to control the offensive boards and they nailed their FTs. I think Les needs to bring the band into FT practice. But there were times when the house was dead silent and we were still missing them. Painful to watch.
