Justin Wilcox, the incoming Cal coach, is Mr. Bland. Unless he is in a coaches’ booth yelling profanity on the headsets during a game.
So the top priority for him is to hire good recruiters on his coaching staff. Tosh Lupoi, the controversial former Washington assistant currently rehabilitating as an Alabama assistant, is a frontrunner to become defensive coordinator. So Wilcox needs some offensive assistants who can recruit. And someone who can call plays. And someone who can motivate the team. And . . .
It’s going to be fun watching this unfold the next couple seasons. Plus I get to run that picture about 1,000 more times.
You usually need no reason to beat a dead horse. Why would you need a reason to show a picture 1,000 times? Your middle name is obsession right?
Well Ken, someone who feels the need to constantly bash another person’s character or accomplishments is really showing what low self esteem they really have.
Are you referring to Follicle Boy?
LMAO!
The bbald one himself
I like that, the Bbald Blogger
Can anyone explain why the #1 rated public University would hire this coach whose resume’ is so pathetic? It had to be he came cheap, which would explain the hire. No one is going to accuse CAL of trying to run a championship football program. It’s not on their bucket list. Well, we won’t have to worry about CAL for the next few years (if Wilcox lasts that long).
Some Pac12 HCs have cred and others are just downright bad.
Ucla… F
ASU….F
UoA….D+
Cal……F
Colorado .. D+
Oregon St.. C-
USC …. B
Stanford.. B-

Washington St… C
Seems a bit harsh on Petersen, McIntyre, they did get their teams to the Conf Champ Game.
I agree. Petersen and McIntyre are good coaches.
Better, I dare say, than Helton.
And they both LOST!.. And their schedules were suspect… Nothing special.. Colorado will never be heard from again and Peterson will be a out after this year.
Seriously? Petersen out after this year. I need what you are smokin
He will gone by his own choice…Don’t smoke.. And show your pride to your to “school” add avatar and your schools name Pac 12.. Don’t be scared!
Seems ridiculous. Petersen 2 time coach of the year Nationally, Mc Intyre has done a great job at Colorado, whittingham is for real and i would give David Shaw accolades . If Shaw is B- , then Helton would be a C plus
He did come cheap and it’s also a place that would give him a shot.
No clue – I liked Dykes a lot….
Maybe David Sills will transfer to Cal! You could beat two dead horses with one stick!
So Wilcox didn’t like Wolf, just like Kiffin didn’t like Wolf.
Maybe Wolf is the problem?
Ya think?
According to brainless rah rahs Wolf is the reason USC football declined under Kiffin and Sark.
The bbald one could be the reason coverage is so bad.
No, we blame Petros,
Maybe Wolfman is still here and they aren’t.
Actually the trend in college football is for coaches to coach and to hire staff to perform the routine recruit evaluations/contact. Coaches would mostly be involved in in-home visits and official on-campus visits. This is the role Pendergast currently has, although the Blogger likes to say he doesn’t recruit – which is inaccurate.
Birdcage breaks groundbreaking news: New HCs need to bring in excellent assistants to succeed. Stunning acuity!
Lol
And coaches curse during games…I am in complete SHOCK!
Lupoi was tweeting from U of Neb last night.
So this will be “Inside Cal, FAU, Bama, and just a little bit of USC, Rams, Chargers and english soccer. “
Along with whatever is going on at Oregon. Taggert is going to be comedy also.
I’m not sure why you say that, because they put together one heck of a staff that can recruit with the best of them. Is a matter of fact, they just hired Alabama’s offensive line coach today. Willie Taggert may not be a household name, but he’s a solid coach, so I’m not sure how you evaluate a , but I usually base it on resumes, or what he does on the field.
TL was hired by Nebraska late last night.
No he wasn’t
The administration at Cal blocked the hiring of Tosh Lupoi when Sonny Dykes wanted him, so let’s see if they do it, again
Yes he was.. Not final but yep it is ..
TL ?
Oh ok… got cha
Aubrey Solomon is on campus
Some good intel flooting around.
Nice
Taggert also hired Jim Leavitt for DC who was Colorado’s DC last year. Not a bad hire. He did a very good job with the Buffs last year.
He hired a highly respected defensive line coach from Oregon State, also
Wrong word. Not particularly comedy, but without his Florida base coming to Oregon, gonna be tough to build up there.
Wow! Breaking news! A football coach yelled profanities during a game…no way! Wolf, once again, you are at the top of your game. So, let’s see…overused pictures…Wilcox choking, Greta Garbo, anything kiffin…hey Wolf, can you run those Disneyland clock pics again? We can’t get enough…
The defense at CAL has been a sh*tshow for years. At least CAL is taking steps to correct that. Kind of an inspired hire actually since CAL doesn’t have the profile, commitment or clout to bring in a big-timer and never will.
Love the hate for SW, you guys beat a dead horse worse than he does
Maybe Saban will get smart and dump the booger eater and Wilcox can bring him to cal.
Tosh Lupoi’s Twitter had changed to DC at Nebraska and has since been deleted. Here’s the cached link:

Link didn’t work.
Finally something of which Wolf and most of us can agree on making fun of.
Did Haden make this hire?
Nope the brainless rah rahs are defending the Wilcox hire!
Didn’t you hear? Governor Brown is taking money away from the UC system to build a train to Fresno. The State has also hired a law firm to thwart anything Washington wants to do.
This means low budget coaches and assistants from now on. Maybe some of the worst high school coaches in the Berkley area are looking to get their resume’s on Wilcox’s desk
Actually, it’s Inside Mickey D’s. Bruin Rob will provide Wolf with great info regarding the Golden Arches.
So you finally admit it regarding this picture. That’s a step in the right direction, Flow. You devil, you.
Mark Helfrich? Although that would probably
mean a pay cut
Cals finances in the athletic dept arent in good shape. They will need to do the best they can . Getting Lupoi would be great for their recruiting. Schools have short memories about coaches leaving sometimes. Ie Carroll , Sark, Pendergast, Kiffin.
Just goes to show you how important recruiting is in todays game. To my knowledge, that’s all he’s ever been….a recruiter. He’s never been any kind of a co-ordinator….at least as far as I know.
Oregon putting quite a staff together thanks to Phil Knight
NOBODY crosses the Wolfman and walks away unscathed.
