Ragland, a redshirt freshman offensive linemen from the Class of 2009, will temporarily move to San Mateo CC to work on his academics. He might return next spring or next fall depending on his progress. CGB analysis of Ragland: Tosh Lupoi said he needed to grow and develop into his body, and Jim McGill from Bear Insider mentioned that he had a nasty streak along with Charles Siddoway and would be a great contributor once he learned the offense.

Tedford ranks 11th in total salary, 11th in overall, 19th in other things, and 40 something in max bonuses. Cal's assistants are ranked 46th in total payroll, 45th for highest salary (Ludwig), 45th for lowest salary (Lupoi). Interesting to see Marshall making so much given the results so far and Gould and Alamar making the same amount (ugh). Hat-tip SF Bear!

At about the 12:31 mark, rags comes in, starts talking about Cal. He briefly goes over the USC and Oregon games, talks about Kevin Riley, Jahvid Best's running back style, Steve Marshall, the 3-4 defensive scheme, the pass coverage, special teams, etc. Also, lots of great insight from ryebreadraz and ucla13_usc9, their two hosts, about what they think about Cal's offense and defense as well as UCLA's strengths and weaknesses. I highly recommend listening to all of it.
