I was in Orange County today, but I’m talking about the Offensive Coordinator.
The two big stories this week: Cal’s recruiting class and a new hire. Recruiting bores me, I have to admit. Apparently Cal’s class was pretty decent, second or third in the Pac-10. USC, of course, gets your national blue-chip recruits. But Cal apparently did well, and has added to Jeff Tedford’s huge pile of quarterback recruits.
Mike Dunbar is the new Cal offensive coordinator, and it’s an odd situation — he’s kind of a friend of the family. My aunt, uncle, and cousin became his friends when they lived in Toledo and he coached at Toledo. Dunbar was most recently the OC for the #4 offense in the NCAA at Northwestern. Now he’s teaming with Tedford at Cal. I might be able to make my Florida-residing family members Cal fans after all, thanks to Dunbar.
I hope he does well. Could make for awkward family gatherings if he doesn’t!

Jason, where is the curling?
I found it on CNBC.... been on vacation for two weeks so it's been pretty spotty viewing for me. I saw the U.S. get schooled by Italy (!) 6-5 in a really poorly played match.
