Tyler, Cory Smits decided to give up football after the spring.
Robert, Dilfer and Tedford have the Fresno State connection. Tedford consulted with Dilfer before hiring Cignetti. He’s basically a friend of the program.

Hey Duke,

I’m no insider, so your guess is as good as mine. There looks to be a gym in the large room on the right, and there is a classroom (on the top) and medical rooms (on the bottom) at the left. There’s suppose to be parking, men and women locker rooms, offices for different team sports, and I have no clue where those will be.

I am interested in another picture and what appears to be cascading water next to the walkway past the Golden Bear. I wonder if that’s actually going to be there. I wouldn’t put too much into any of these sketches, since there’s a lot of time and consideration before the cement will be poured.

Go BEARS!

Jan,

I was looking at the graphic of the ‘student-athlete training center’ at the CalBears website, and; what are the activities shown going on inside the center.
Is this a training center or offices and meeting rooms?

Oh yeah, Dilfer works for ESPN, now…

Robert, If you caught the replay on 360 ESPN, Dilfer said that he is good friends with both Tedford and Cignetti. Adam Durst of the Counting Crows talked to the team before the game, but I don’t know if Dilfer did at all.

On a sidenote, former Cal coach and 49er coach Steve Mariucci was also on the side-line.

Go Bears!

Dilfer.

Played at Fresno St. when Tedford was there.

Played for the niners when Cignetti was there.

J.O. I think it was Trent Dilfer on the sidelines during the Michigan State game. Do you know what his involvement with the program is? Just curious…

Rock… This link is off the BCS official site. (The Sagarian link sends you to his 2007 final poll. Click on the “Index” link from there to get to 2008.) The Massey link you gave shows a bunch of computer polls beyond the 6 that the BCS uses.

I know these numbers don’t mean didily (is that a word?) I was just throwing them out there.

Hey, is Cory Smits still on the team? I didn’t see his name on the roster.

Thanks J.O.!!!

Maryland is down but should play spirited football, I hope the time change doesn’t effect Cal in the first quarter and I hope Riley rebounds from a less then stellar game last week. I think he’s up for it and ready to pounce on some Terrapin!!!!
