The avg size of the NFL is 6'2. I put Flacco and Rogers on the list specifically to see if you would highlight them instead of Bryce, Russell, and Joe to prove a point that you are focusing on QB's that fit your narrative.

The overall point is Caden's size is not an issue if he wants to play in FBS or the NFL. Not sure what point you are trying to make, because there a NFL QB's that are smaller than Caden who are doing just fine in the NFL.

The avg height in the NFL is 6'2. Here are notable players:

1. Bryce Young
2. Russell Wilson
3. Aaron Rogers
4. Kyler Murray
5. Joe Flacco

What I'm saying is size in relation to Caden is not warranted. He is well within the measurables to play FBS or NFL. These are just 5 players off the top of my head who are currently playing in the NFL.

You said Caden was too small for the next level. I was just pointing out there are multiple players his size in both FBS and the NFL. It's not that uncommon.

Sorry, didn't mean for that to come off the way it did. I'm sure you know a ton of recruiting. I'm just pointing out that this isn't the first or last commit that will be flip. It happens.

Time slot. The Pacific Time zone is empty for the east coast. If we can become successful we can dominate the tv slot. Similar to what USC/UCLA used to do pre2008.

You have to be realistic of who we are. Yes, we are an outstanding university. Yes, we provide an amazing opportunity to play football. But guess what? Cal and Stanford are athletically and academically better than us right now. They have a history. If my kid wanted to play for Davis, but then got a call from Stanford, Cal, UCLA, or USC he would have to consider it. That is just recruiting. Happens to everyone.

Not much we could do. The kid blew up and was getting offers from Cal, UCLA, and others. It happens sometimes.

It's going to be dark. I'd suggest everyone bring blue and white neon lights. Create a very nice atmosphere!

It looks good but you need more dots.

Well it looks like I'm bringing the outdoor fire pit to the tailgate!

Looking at the states top recruits and its wild to me that most California kids are leaving the state to play football.

clearly you have never met 5’9 Bryce Young.

An argument for 2nd!!

it’s just business. Nothing personal. It would be great if he stayed but if he leaves I’ll wish him well. Let’s say he goes to Oregon and plays well. UC Davis will be mentioned a bunch on national broadcasts. That’s free pub and gives us a solid reputation.

yes Davis is doing a phenomenal job with athletics. When I was an undergraduate we didn’t have any of this awesome facilities. Now? Just very impressive. I still stand by my belief that in 10 years Davis will be a highly attractive place to play in all sports. We are the only real college town in California with D1 sports. That counts.

I get what your saying but this is college football now. Until Davis moves up and even then, we are going to lose kids to bigger schools. It would be great if they stayed but if your being honest with yourself you’d realize taking $1M to play football in a higher league is the correct business decision.

Boring? That’s subjective. Do you need to be reminded that college is meant to provide opportunities for kids to play sports but more importantly to get an education. We have grown to much accustomed to college sports being about entertainment and money, we have forgotten the reason schools even exist.

If you are looking to watch semipro ball go watch USC or Alabama. If you want to support your alumni and root for our kids root for California schools.

what’s the difference? Every conference is geographically based. State schools are run by the state that’s why your diploma has the governors signature on it.

someone offered my kid $1M, I’d be like gotta go!!

I think I heard he has already been offered a $1M deal from a team in the BIG. Can’t blame the kid for leaving. After seeing what happened to the Connor’s brothers grabbing the money is a smart financial move.

Sucks but that football today.
