PrintThe 2010 Cal Coaches Tour has been announced. Unfortunately, it looks like it's only one stop this year (down from the 5-6 in previous years). Nonetheless, it should be a good time (See posts on last year's stops at Pleasant Hill Part I and Part II, Sacramento, and Ladera Ranch). This year's tour should be unique, as it will be an introduction to how Cal will utilize the AT&T facilities in 2011. Click here to register.
The 2010 Coaches Tour
Wednesday, June 9, 2010
5:30 PM - 8:00 PM
AT&T Park, San Francisco, CA
Join fellow Golden Bears, Athletic Director Sandy Barbour and all of our Cal Athletic championship coaches, celebrate the partnership with the San Francisco Giants at the 2010 Coaches Tour event at AT&T Park.
The party gets started at 5:30 pm and will run until 8:00 pm. Come hear about the successes happening within the Cal Athletics family and get a firsthand look at the upcoming year and the exciting new amenities that Cal fans will enjoy in 2011.
For just $20, guests will enjoy light snacks, a chance to tour the home of Cal Football for 2011 AT & T Park, an insider's chalk talk from Cal coaches and a Bear Backer membership! Kids under the age of 12 are free to attend.
After the jump Ted Miller talks to Cam Jordan, Zack Follett sells custom Lions wood cuts, the Memorial Stadium locker room gets cleared out, a pair of former Bears are cut from the Seattle Storm, and several sports are off to a strong start in their respective NCAA tournaments.
Cal Football
- Ted Miller has a good piece on Cameron Jordan. Cam talks about what went wrong last year, how the Pendergast defense will help him, and how he and the team will respond to this year's low expectations.
- Some of you may remember that Zack Follett is a talented woodworker. He's currently selling 25 signed Detroit Lions logo cutouts for $300 each. Send a little extra and maybe he can get Best to sign it too...
- The Memorial Stadium locker room is no more...
- Neither Ashley Walker nor Devanei Hampton made the final cut for the Seattle Storm. The fans believe Seattle cut the wrong Ashley.
- PC makes his return to Chad Ford's top-100 NBA draft prospects. Randle is 85th and PC is 91st.
- No. 17 men's tennis advanced in the NCAA Tennis Championships with a 4-0 victory over UC Irvine. No. 12 women's tennis also advanced, with a 4-1 win over USC.
- Steve Sodaro became the first Bear to win the steeplechase at the Pac-10 championships. He set the third-fastest time in school history.
- No. 4 women's water polo defeated no. 5 Michigan 12-8 to advance in the NCAA tournament. They fell to top-ranked Stanford on Saturday with a 6-3 loss. Overall, it wasn't an unsuccessful weekend. Cal women's water polo had never been to the NCAA championships, as water polo was not sanctioned as an NCAA Sport until 2001.
- No. 2 men's crew finished second behind Washington at the Pac-10 Championships.
- Softball defeated Oregon St 11-3 to complete the sweep of the Beavers.

Regarding the Coaches Tour
I suppose this “chalk talk” is merely a Q&A session, and not an actual Xs & Os session. If it were actually the latter, I would pay more than $20 to go to that.

I’m pretty disappointed that the coaches tour only has the one stop. I understand that they want to show off AT&T Park, and maybe the coaches were getting tired of doing the same thing three times. But if you’re only going to do it once, at least have the event on a weekend. Somehow I don’t think I’ll be able to make it from Sacramento to San Francisco in 30 minutes to make the 5:30 start time.

Coaches Tour
Has anyone been to these things before? Is it worth it?
I’m kind of a fanatic so I consider myself pretty up to date with everything Cal football/basketball related.
Am I going to learn anything new?

I went to the events in Sacramento the last two years. They were great fun. But I can’t say I learned anything I couldn’t have learned from other sources. It’s not like Tedford is going to all of a sudden open up and tell people what he’s really thinking. One of the nice things about the events the last two years was that they were relatively small and informal. This event at AT&T will probably be really different.
Exit, Pursued By A Bear
They’ve definitely been worth it, even if you didn’t necessarily learn much. This year should be different since it will be an introduction to AT&T Park. I’m expecting that even people who closely follow the team will learn a lot, particularly about how the new venue will affect the team and fans.

Ok, maybe I'll have to check it out
I want our leaders to know that we have a solid fanbase out there supporting them. It also sounds fun to check out AT&T without a baseball game going on.
