I doubt that Lupoi and really supposed to recruit and deliver offensive players to Cal. Certainly, Tedford, being the QB guru, was primarily responsible for getting the QB’s. Perhaps Juancho knows a bit more about who Lupoi was substantially responsible for recruiting in the past years, but my guess is that they were on the defensive side of the ball, and certainly not any of the QB’s we have.

As a side substantiation of my point above, Cal certainly recruited a bunch of stud offensive lineman, maybe our greatest cache of offensive line recruits in one year. Undoubtedly, that was because the primary job of recruiting them was placed on Coach M (I think that his first initial, and I certainly couldn’t spell the name without looking him up). A name coach with a great reputation, both at Cal and in the pro’s. Hope he stays at Cal a long time.

He was recruited there to play football

He played football there

He went to school there

He became an assistant in the football program to Tedford

He became the DL coach

He was the lead recruiter

He instructed DL to fake injuries against Oregon

The point: Don’t blame UW and Sarkisian. UCB which educated him, coached him, employed him created the mess.

This year’s Big Game will take place on November 2 at Memorial Stadium my friends.

I didn’t know about the request. I am wondering if I missed it or if it was kept quiet because it clearly infers the school’s position was that the meeting with Shaq, Tosh and Tedford, then just Tosh, was ultimately a UW meeting.
