We thought that might create a power struggle with coaches, but what happened Monday suggests it also may create a power struggle with athletic directors.

 

Cal athletic director Jim Knowlton retired with four years left on his contract, and it’s clear that newly installed GM Ron Rivera — the former Panthers and Commanders head coach — has assumed the role Knowlton had when it comes to football.

 

Meanwhile, well-traveled quarterback Jake Garcia committed to Michigan. The former four-star recruit has been at Miami, Missouri and East Carolina. Why are the Wolverines dipping into the portal for a QB now?
