A few notes as we officially begin Duck Hunting Season this week.
Riley will start
All signs point to Kevin Riley starting this Saturday when the Bears host the Oregon Ducks. After several weeks of not announcing the starter until a few days or just before the game, Coach Tedford announced during his weekly press conference that Riley is the starter...for now. The team will gameplan around Riley starting, but will still continue to split first team reps between Riley and Nate Longshore.
Tedford appeared to be happy about how Riley played on Saturday, with the biggest plus being Riley's decision making and avoiding any costly turnovers. He also proceeded to maintain that he would prefer not to go with a two quarterback system and just have one established starter - it just hasn't happened yet. Tedford also dismissed the continued splitting of reps deeply affecting their chemistry with the receivers.
Hmm. Your guys' thoughts?
Be Ready for Oregon
Coach Tedford also made his usual plea for fan support to help the Bears create a difficult home atmosphere against the Ducks and their spread offense.
Coach Tedford: "People should get an extra hour of sleep or whatever, have a little bit more tailgate or do whatever they need to do, but we need our crowd this week."

Translation: Even if it means getting blazed before the game, Bears fans need to come ready to rock.
FINE! I'm not a drinker, but if Tedford says so...
Vote for Alex Mack!
Someone emailed this link to me asking that I post this on the site: Your opportunity to vote for Alex Mack for the Lowe's Senior Class Award. Would love to. Cal fans should be thanking the football gods daily that Big Mack decided to stick around for his senior year. Our offensive line, entire offense, and the team wouldn't be the same without his play or his leadership.
The guy is also an absolute friendly bear off the field, and was one of the nicest players to talk to during the fan appreciation day, actually getting up out of his seat to take a photo with yours truly. He must have known greatness when he saw me. Cough.

Recruiting Update
Greg Biggins with the ESPN West Coast Recruiting Blog has some good stuff regarding possible Cal prospects.
The two most interesting notes is standout defensive lineman Deandre Coleman, who recently backed out of an early commitment to Washington (can't blame you kid) has Cal at the top of his list while also considering UCLA, both Arizona schools, and Colorado.
"Coach [Tosh] Lupoi has been recruiting me for awhile and I really like him a lot. I liked the campus, the players on the team, basically everything about the visit was cool."
Although nothing is certain, Coleman would be an absolute great get as a future stud at Cal's critical nose tackle position.
Also, wide receiver Caleve Deboskie, brother of current Cal redshirt running back Covaughn Deoskie, received his official offer from Wyoming, and is fielding potential offers from San Diego State, Utah, Montana State, as well as Oregon State. No word yet as to the level of interest Cal has in nabbing the second Deboskie brother, or if Caleve would like to even consider going to the same school as Covaughn.
Let's hope so. Caleve already has 23 catches for 493 yards and seven touchdowns on the season. Would mind another pass catching threat at all…
