In the wake of the Pac-12’s announcement that it will play football in 2020 after all, Cal director of football administration Andrew McGraw walks us through a wild seven months that included a campus shutdown and a conference-wide player revolt that began in Berkeley. He also shares his own experience as a COVID-19 survivor and addresses the challenges of trying to maintain the safety of student athletes while staging games amid a global pandemic. Oh, and we swap stories involving former Cal greats (Aaron Rodgers, Jared Goff, Evan Weaver, Ashtyn Davis), Mike’s infamous speech to the team and Natalie’s illustrious stint as a recruiting assistant.
