Giants World Series win tops chart in Bay Area 2012 sports review - SLIDESHOW

By: Ben Martin 12/25/12 10:12 PM
It was a year marked with injuries and suspensions for the Giants — and big moves by the archrival Los Angeles Dodgers. The Orange and Black rallied to win the NL West anyway, but their postseason looked like it would be cut short as they dropped their first two NL Division Series games to the Cincinnati Reds.

By: Glenn Dickey 12/06/12 8:30 PM
As Sonny Dykes was introduced to the Bay Area media Thursday, he described the Cal coaching job he was assuming as a dream job. I can only hope it doesn’t turn into a nightmare, as it has for almost every other Cal coach since World War II. Read More

Cal football should try to emulate Stanford’s model

By: Paul Gackle 11/29/12 5:00 AM
A popular refrain surrounding Jeff Tedford’s firing last week is that he was a victim of his own success. He raised the bar so high in his first five seasons at Cal it created unrealistic expectations amongst the fan base. Read More

Firing Tedford is the wrong move for Cal’s football program

By: Glenn Dickey 11/20/12 8:25 PM
The “what have you done for me lately” group got its way Tuesday, with the firing of Cal football coach Jeff Tedford. I think that is a big mistake. Cal has had only brief moments as a football power since the end of World War II. The consistent football powers are schools which apply only the breathing test for admission — if they can breathe, they’re in — and don’t expect them to do anything academically once they get in.

Cal fires coach Jeff Tedford

By: Josh Dubow 11/20/12 11:35 AM
Coach Jeff Tedford was fired on Tuesday after 11 seasons at California that began with great promise and ended with a disappointing run of mediocrity. The decision was slated to be announced by athletic director Sandy Barbour at a news conference Tuesday afternoon, a person with knowledge of the move said on condition of anonymity because it hadn't been officially announced.

With Cal’s season over, Tedford’s future in question

By: Staff report 11/18/12 9:22 PM
As soon as Cal lost to Oregon State 62-14 on the road on Saturday to complete a 3-9 season, its worst in 11 years, the question of coach Jeff Tedford’s future became the No. 1 issue. Despite being Cal’s all-time leader in coaching victories and being responsible for bringing the Golden Bears back to national prominence, there’s a chance Tedford will be dismissed, and an announcement could come as soon as today.

By: Josh Dubow 11/13/12 7:58 PM
Cal coach Jeff Tedford said he expects to meet next week with athletic director Sandy Barbour to discuss his future after the Golden Bears finish their worst season during Tedford’s tenure. Tedford said Tuesday he will begin a thorough evaluation of what went wrong for the program as soon as the season ends Saturday night at No. 15 Oregon State. “The first place I will look is in the mirror,” Tedford said. “We’ll do a deep dive and figure out where we can improve.” Read More

Bridgford may get chance on big stage for Cal

By: Josh Dubow 11/06/12 7:35 PM
Allan Bridgford prepares each week as if he is the starting quarterback for Cal. The difference this week is he could likely get that chance for the Golden Bears against No. 2 Oregon because starter Zach Maynard is hampered by an injured left knee. Bridgford took the majority of practice snaps with the first team Tuesday, according to coach Jeff Tedford, while Maynard just watched with a heavy brace on his left leg. Read More

Cal will face Washington without star receiver Allen

By: Michael Wagaman 11/01/12 7:43 PM
Having already proven capable of beating some of the Pac-12’s best teams this season, Washington coach Steve Sarkisian’s team faces another monumental task as it tries to close in on a bowl berth. The Huskies are winless in their last six road games dating back to 2011 and have been outscored 145-41 in their three games away from CenturyLink Field this season. Read More
