Golden Nuggets: The Future of Cal Basketball

Men’s Basketball

• Hey this may be news to some of you, but Cal fans aren’t really happy about the Bears head coach.

Before Cal’s Feb. 13 game against UCLA, a season-ticket holder of more than two decades stood in the rain and passed out flyers directing fans to change.org, where a petition to fire head coach Wyking Jones, who is 13-44 with the Bears. In less than a day, more than 100 people signed the petition.

“I understand that our fans want see better results,” Jones said in a statement to The Chronicle. “No one wants to win more than our student-athletes, our staff and me. We’re all competitors and we all have pride. Our focus every day is to help shape high-character young men while building a program that our fans can be proud of.”

• So, what should we expect to happen in a few weeks when basketball season is over? Cal Bears Maven has the analysis of both finances and performance on the court in showing both sides of the “Should Wyking Go” debate.
• And what about the short term future? There are 5 games left, including Arizona tonight. Will there be a win this year? (Probably not, according to Justice Delos Santos)
