So, once again we're going to lose our big opening game.
Duke does the one and done thing too, yet they seem to perform better than we do with freshman.
Cal cant keep using the "theyre young" excuse if this sorta thing keeps happening.
Not saying fire him but in order to do a good job he needs to win these games more often than lose them
This was a great Duke team, but there is no reason we shouldn't be as good. I know we will be better come February but still we shouldn't be this bad

Cal score card
Recruiting = above average
Pre game prep = above average
Coach = average
In game coaching = average to below average
Even going back to the game in what 2011 when it first surfaced in that game with Huggy at West Virginia, he can not seem to adjust well once the game has started.

This is pretty accurate. And with more teams willing to go for the one and done's getting the highest level 18 year old talent is proving harder.

I'm beginning to think we are on the down side. Recruiting has not been great, 2019 recruits are going elsewhere, and we have players who don't play defense.
Seems we are backsliding.
And I agree with the Cal attributes. Average to below in game coach.

And now Quade leaving. Is this imploding?

Quade’s been trying to leave since end of last season. It’s as simple as PT for him at this point and he’s not going to get it without significant growth because of Hagans, Quickley, and Maxey coming in next season.

Woo hoo we just beat two bottom dwellers and only because Bruiser showed Cal that having Allen in the game opens up the offense.
Cal has got to bench the "stars" when they aren't getting it done. Ware, Toppin, Minx and Allen play well together and Sarr sure looks better with an outside scoring threat in the game.

Lifetime contract was a big mistake

It's funny reading these because even after 1-6 you kind of thought the lights might come on for these guys but it hasn't. Cal has gotten by on talent and this year he doesn't have the best and has no clue what to do with what he has. Another coach might try something different. Like full court zone pressing, running players in and out, avoiding exposing your point guard who can't run an offense or defend one on one. Falling back into 2-3 zone, maybe not running off your guys that can actually shoot.
Give another coach this talent and we might have gotten better as the season progressed because we screened for Dontae Allen, spread out the defense, backscreened for alley oops. This is street ball going against organized, coached defenses. Our talent isn't as bad as it looks. It just isn't vastly superior and Cal is clueless. Overpaid.
Kenny Payne must be a hell of a coach.
