Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Too many players hold up C's for Cal. And V's for USC. Shaq, AA, McCarthy, and Shittu all holding up C's.

"I want to help turn this program (Cal) around and this class is going to do it," Shaq Thompson texted moments ago

So goodbye too all those 4 guys above IMO. I'm holing out hope for Armstead since he's not announcing for the AA game, but still wouldn't get too excited about it.

I'm sure they'll all have fun playing in low-tier bowl games for the next 4 years too!

Pretty sad all these guys don't care about winning. Is coaching (Tosh) and academics really why they pick Cal over Oregon?

I don't see Kyle murphy holding up any sign to where he is going? I guess he ain't down with that the other gangs!

On a serious note we will keep spanking Cal's ass!!! unbelievable how Cal be pulling these DT's Tosh Lupoi by the end of this recruiting season should get an award for best recruiter on the West Coast!

However he still cheats. having his players fake injuries LOL

Cal is more a collection of talented individuals than a talented team. Players see Cal as a chance to get to the NFL, with playing in BCS games seemingly lower on the importance scale. Oregon has gotten players that see Oregon as a chance to play in BCS games, with the extra attention possibly getting them to the NFL.

Totally agree. That's obviously what Tosh is selling & it's why they attract all the me first guys. Honestly, as soon as a kid starts pumping up Cal & names them his leading I'm like "no thanks". It's a perfect process of elimination. You love Cal? Then you aren't a player we want. And it seems like the coaches do the same thing. They've stopped recruiting a bunch of kids as soon as they started drinking the Cal koolaide.

Cal must pay well.

What happens to Tedford and Lupoi when Cal doesn't make a major bowl game anytime soon? Oh that's right, they settle for below the status quo. Look on the bright side, at least USC/Stanford aren't getting these players.

Wow, the attitude in this thread reminds me of Washington fans discussing Oregon in the late 1990's. Cal is a QB away from being a very good team, and next years they will have a couple 4 stars at that position.

Did I say anything that is not true? Would you rather those players were at USC/Stanford or Cal? Has Cal broke through yet and been a player in the Pac-10/12 title? Nope(I know they were with Rodgers, but that's a long time ago in football years).

I'll say this much though, I'd much rather that they were playing for Oregon than Cal. This is quite a haul, but it isn't outlandish to wonder what Cal will do with these new toys..

My comments weren't directed at you and I apologize if it appeared they were. Cal is getting a ton of talent, a decent quarterback would make them a formidable opponent.

so looks like number 20 is holding up the 'vagina' sign, so who is he?

Nah his looks more like a heart but it is better then most......the way the 'O' is supposed to be done is legit. It's the people who don't close their hands so that all the fingers are touching when they do it, that's the vagina sign and been a pet peeve of mine years before the article came out
