Joining a Cal team in desperate need of quarterback depth, Finley will find himself alongside newly-acquired dual threat Sam Jackson V and fellow redshirt freshman Fernando Mendoza.

Cal football is set to begin its spring session of practices, ending with the spring showcase on April 15. However, fans still have questions about where this team will end up in 2023.

With the closing of the transfer portal Jan. 18, 2023, and national signing day Feb. 1, The Daily Californian’s sports editors are bringing readers a comprehensive update to the ins and outs (quite literally) of Cal’s 2023 football roster.

After going 4-8 on the season last year, Cal football is now preparing for its 2023 season following the release of the Pac-12 football schedule Wednesday.

Jackson’s dual-threat profile will add a novel dimension to the blue and gold offense.

As a tight end recruit, Terry was ranked No. 7 in the nation for his position, and held the No. 18 ranking as a recruit in the state of California.

Even before the clock struck 8 a.m., Cal football had already named several new commits to its 2023 squad. By midday, Cal had added 14 new names to its football roster.

Spavital returns to Cal, where he was previously the offensive coordinator for just one season in 2016 under former Cal head coach Sonny Dykes.
