Family wins again, he'll end up at cal. But it's nice if he gives a chance and visits, who knows maybe we can steal him on signing day. Remember we stole Ngata at the last second.

A cousin works for Cal, and speaks highly of Lupoi, who just happens to sound like the make or break part of the deal for the Bears, plus the immediate family angle... That's a lot of hill to climb.

I thought the coaches weren't high on Vili because he doesn't fit their mold of a DT? I personally feel you just adjust schemes to include guys that are the source of constant double teams because it allows you to win matchups better. It's good that he's visiting though unless Tupoi leaves Cal, I don't think a visit will sway him to sign with Oregon.

sounds like a package deal with the Grant teammates (Sample, Moala, and two other DL) to Oregon State is still very possible.

He will be at Cal. He's taking trips to help his teammates

Cal can continue to get these guys, sure it sucks to lose some of these guys but Cal can't do anything with them.

Per the CFBMatrix, Cal has net negative coaches..... they get the talent and then waste it.

I thought Chip doesn't take visits if recruit is committed elsewhere?

IMHO, Moala playing for UO is like Shaq playing for the Phoenix Suns. Sometimes the style of play just doesn't match the scheme and talent goes to waste. Cal would be his best choice and i believe he sticks with it.

No it would not. We're not asking him to play on offense.

Huh? Do we not use DL's on the defensive side of the ball? I don't understand this comment.

I think he's trying to say that Moala probably doesn't have the mobility and speed that Oregon tends to like in its DL.

he fits the mold of a gap containing NT, which would fit in with Cal's 3-4
