Trojan Horsed: How The Cal Defense Gave Up 42 To The USC Offense
Today, I begin taking a look back at the Xs and Os of the disappointing 2010 Cal football campaign. I'll start with the bottom of the barrel, the embarrassing 48-14 loss in the Coliseum against the USC Trojans. We were all left seething after "42-0". A lot of just couldn't process it as it was...
Cal Football Defense Roundtable: The Gregory-Pendergast Transition
1. Do you prefer Clancy Pendergast's defensive scheming to Bob Gregory's more fundamental style? Why or why not? HydroTech: I like seeing QB sacks, and QB pressure. However, I do recognize that pressuring the QB is risky and pressuring the QB cannot be done in a reckless manner. So it's hard for...

Cal Defense: Comparing Clancy Pendergast To Bob Gregory
For the first time in the Jeff Tedford era, the Cal defense will have a little spice added to it.. Clancy Pendergast arrives to upgrade a defense that has vacillated from very good to very bad over the past decade, bringing with him a new array of looks and moves that have many fans excited over...
The Bob Gregory Firing / Pushed Out Conspiracy Theory
From the day that the 2009 Cal Football season ended, one of the big lingering questions entering the off-season was whether Cal head coach Jeff Tedford would retain defensive coordinator Bob Gregory or fire him. Many Cal fans wanted Bob Gregory gone. Cal's defense had gotten much worse in 2009,...
Discovering Clancy Pendergast: Q&A With Arrowhead Pride
via cdn1.sbnation.com With all the hoops action, we haven't had a lot of time to discuss the Pendergast hire. Now, I've always personally felt a change in DCs isn't going to significantly impact results on the field as long as we don't see a drastic alteration in scheme (not likely), personnel...
Remembering Bob Gregory's Time at Cal: Underwhelming, Yet Underappreciated
IMG_5169.JPG (via bipolarbear) I gotta admit, it's going to be strange watching the Cal defense this fall without Bob Gregory making the calls. Gregory was the last stalwart from the 2002 Tedford makeover (not including Ron Gould, who predates Tedford), and he had become just as much a fixture on...
Jeff Tedford's Stable Regime Lays Foundation for Cal Recruiting Success
via media.steamboatpilot.com Will Austin Hinder be the next Tedford success story? (HT Solarise for the photo) I'll admit as much as anyone; we got some real luck on our side this time. Recruiting can be such a crapshoot sometimes, especially for a program like Cal that's been strugging to make...
How Do Cal Football Fans Feel About 2009?
We'll get back to dissecting my slightly inflammatory post (which wasn't intended to be interpreted that way, but it ended up like that anyway) after Christmas. For now, as we settle into our holiday break, let's discuss one last time how we feel about this season. Let's look at it both ways in a...
Utah 37, California 27: Is Jeff Tedford Still A Good Coach?
I'm not going to bother rehashing this game too much--as Red from Shawshank said, "Same shit, different day." Let's talk about Jeff Tedford instead. Because to be frank, I haven't been really impressed with our coaching the past few seasons. You can see all the symptoms in our losses of bad...
