Jim Knowlton

UC Berkeley has allegedly started a formal investigation into Cal’s athletic director, or AD, Jim Knowlton and associate AD Jennifer Simon-O’Neill over the response to abuse allegations made against former women’s swim and dive coach Teri Mckeever, according to reporting by SCNG Thursday.

It can be done. It has been done. But apathy has slowly poisoned a university administration and athletics department that does not seem to care about the passionate, devoted community of Cal football and basketball fans.

The move was announced by Cal Athletic Director Jim Knolwton on Thursday, just one day after the Bears crashed out of the Pac-12 tournament in a 69-52 loss to Washington State.

Tuesday afternoon, athletic director Jim Knowlton addressed the team and announced that the University would be parting ways with McKeever.

Cal Athletics announced its new three-year partnership with Nike, set to begin in July of 2023. The deal will extend to 30 of Cal’s sports programs.

No, seriously, what is there to do but laugh? All answers are welcome for what remains of the Cal faithful. But any and all proposed solutions are dead ends.

Is the future of the “conference of champions” in jeopardy? USC and UCLA will depart the Pac-12 for the Big Ten in 2024 after having their applications accepted last week.

Toughness is certainly a desirable trait in a coach, but there is clearly a line between being tough and being abusive, and the behaviors alleged in this case have unquestionably crossed that line.

Behind the trophies and national titles stands, perhaps, a different narrative for Cal swimmers.

The UC Board of Regents heard public comment, discussed the state of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and eliminated extraneous standing orders virtually Tuesday.
