What is there to say at this point? Charlie Moore may or may not have been Cal’s best player next year, but he was almost certainly going to be the most important. Without him, Cal doesn’t have a proven Pac-12 level point guard on the roster and no obvious solutions on the horizon. There were already major roster concerns, but this one dwarfs everything else.
Honestly, I kinda don’t want to talk about Cal basketball for a month or two. The 2016-17 season will clearly be the beginning of a rebuilding cycle, and the question is if it will be a one year rebuild or a painful, multi-year rebuild.
