If we accepted Zack Maynard to get K Allen to commit;
I see no problem letting S Thompson play WR and Armstead suit up on the basketball team.

Bring them aboard.

I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that Monty has been recruiting him to play Basketball. Our BBall team should be rolling by February as well

Tony Gonzalez played both FB & BB at CAL and did pretty good at both. The kid is a five star FB player, if he wants to play BB as well, show him the way to Haas Pavilon.

Cal is a great school with world wide admired degree, now has great facilities, regularly puts kids into the NFL, is in the center of the Bay Area with great weather, so many things going for it!
Recruits want to come to Cal for obvious reasons.
The Cal coach is expected to recruit well and win.
Hoping the Bears get back on the winning track Saturday and continue to take recruiting to an even higher level!

Covinared – you really think recruits will decide based on blog comments? Come on man. That’s ridiculous. An 18 year old has more exciting things to do with their time than us. Especially elite athletes.

I pray they’re working on their game, their academics, and chasing tail.

The facilites are amazing, and anyone with decent talent goes to the nfl. Nobody else can say that. That’s why you go to the bears. Also, you can play earlier, and that means you can leave earlier. Cal has a lot going for it. I just wish the coach could take advantage of that.

Raf: Conte did, but I think you are right. Let’s hope all the negative posts here about Tedford and the direction of the program don’t scare too many recruits away.

I’m a huge Cal fan, but if you’re an elite gridiron player and based on the past one plus seasons, why would you want to play for the Bears???? They’ve underachieved and the program appears to be sinking fast. I hope I’m wrong, but the way things are going, we’re back to mediocrity….

I’m liking a front line, for Monty, of Freddie Tagaloa and Arik Armstead.

That would be really sad is Shaq bailed on Cal.
But would be really great if Armstead signed up.

I read a quote where Armstead mentioned something about having to consider what’s best for his basketball, too. What’s up with that? Is he wanted to play on two teams??? Hell, sign him up, Monty! He could be the rebirth of Sanders-Frison: 6’7″ and Beef. Beef that we’ll need with the skinny collection of Solo, Kravish, Berhens, Rodriguez. Armstead could play as a freshman!
