If we have desperate need on the OL, why have we not seen any commits? Should we be concerned? Can we even field a team?
Yes, we’ll field a team, though it’s probably fair to wonder how good of one, and it’s definitely probably safe to be concerned…
Given the seemingly solid hires by ASU, Colorado and of course ‘Furd, coupled with the current stagnation under Wilcox at Cal, last place in the P12 is definitely on the table. This team doesn’t really land big fish in the portal, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if the preseason media poll pegs the Bears in 12th.
That said, still plenty of time left to land some solid play…
There is not a doubt in my mind they will be tabbed for last in the conference. Pretty much every pre-season poll in the Wilcox era has correctly had them in the bottom half of the conference. The football pundits who write for these publications don't have the same unrealistic expectations for the teams as us fans. It really gets ridiculous around Spring ball time when we all start thinking this could be the break-out year based on a report some dude on the team had three one-handed grabs in a six on six shells drill.
