What are your early assessments of the new California Golden Bears coaching staff? Who has impressed you the most?
Ruey Yen: Obviously, the Cal coaching staff gets all the kudos for transforming the defense. Given the defensive background of head coach Justin Wilcox, I will give credits to both Wilcox and the DC Tim DeRuyter. Barring injuries, the Cal defense should improve more with time to take in more coaching and invaluable experience. More importantly, the team has been able to make changes at the half that the Golden Bears have decisively won the second halves of all three games; that's a clear sign of great coaching.
