If I got the above correct, we've had two years in the Shawbaugh era without an incoming QB, and they both happened with Shaw as head coach. I don't think we offered any QBs in 2020, apparently to avoid hurting McKee's feelings? I don't think we offered anyone other Ari Patu in 2021, but he committed early. But we've offered five QBs for 2022, so maybe the staff have decided that no-QB classes are a bad thing.

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
