You know what OF. Right now it just doesn't matter. Last night I viewed images from around the country at various football stadiums and also at some campus scenes shot during Saturday parties. Many not wearing masks. Plus Napa Valley is on fire, spot fires have forced evacuations in the Santa Rosa area and the Greystone campus of the Culinary Institute was evacuated during the night. We have political turmoil on various fronts and the possibility that a sitting president will refuse to leave the White House.

Frankly David Shaw is not even on the totem pole of concern.

Get your flu shot.

Agree with all of that Phogge, but at least it was an attempt to put sports on our sports board.

So I am all for the sports discussion.

Let's just imagine Wilcox is a better coach than Shaw.   If true, it is then likely he will not be the UCB coach in 2021.   
Why?  Coach Shaw's peers (multiple BCS/NY6 bowls, multiple 10 win seasons, multiple conference titles) command salaries well above $5 million per year.   The UCB AD didn't have those resources or revenue stream in 2019 to pay that type of salary and definitely will not have those resources in 2021.  

So if Wilcox is THAT good, then he will be gone before UCB fans will get to attend a game in Memorial Stadium.

UCB fans always believe the team NEXT year will go to the Rose Bowl.   I really doubt Coach Wilcox will take UCB to 3 Rose Bowls or even 3 Pac-12 CGs this decade, but I believe that many UCBers believe that Coach Wilcox will deliver NY6 bowls wins for UCB.
