College basketball practice opens today, and to get in the spirit, I sat down with Cal Poly junior forward Chris Eversley. CE33 and I talked about his history in the Chicago prep hoops scene.

I’ve been wanting to secure Cal Poly football cornerback Nico Molino for an edition of “What animal would you be” for a couple of weeks, ever since he had the game-clinching interception in a 24-22 victory at Wyoming. Unfortunately for me, the senior from Granite Bay has class immediately after practice in the mornings, and …

Cal Poly middle linebacker Kennith Jackson took his turn Wednesday addressing the Animal Planet question. I’m continuing to be impressed that each guy on the Mustangs football team sees himself as a unique animal. I’ve been wondering how long it will take before someone gives me a repeat species. I might be in for a …

I took part in a question swap this week with Wyoming football beat reporter Robert Gagliardi of the Wyoming Tribune Eagle. We asked each other five questions about the game, and I think we each came away with some better insight into Saturday’s showdown between the Mustangs (1-0) and Cowboys (0-2). Read his answers to …

When I caught up with him and Cal Poly head coach Joe Callero to talk a little about offseason training and the upcoming …

On my first day back at Cal Poly football practice Wednesday, I was looking for a defensive player for the video interview. The last one was with running back Deonte Williams. Why not change things up? Boy, was I glad I found Sullivan Grosz. As you can see in the video below, the former Fresno …

Meet the new Deonte Williams. Well, same guy, new grill. Williams has the gold teeth rockin’ again, something he shelved in his season as a backup lat year. Take the grill being back as a sign that he’s ready to regain his top form. A lot of people are counting on big things from the …

With close to 10 senior defensive linemen on the Cal Poly roster last season, it was no surprise that this past year’s recruit signing class intended to address a huge need for contributors. The biggest name of all was Wisconsin transfer Jake Irwin, who performed in spring drills with the Mustangs in April. But even …
