Tedford named Pac-10 Coach of the Year

Calbears.com is reporting that Jeff Tedford has won the Pac-10 Coach of the Year Award for the second time in his three year tenure at Berkeley. Not bad, considering his sole source of competition this year was Pete Carroll over at USC. Here's crossing our fingers that we can pull a stadium plan together to keep this guy.

Eight other players from the Cal squad were named to the first-team All-Pac-10, a total higher than any other team in the league. Cal's selections include:

QB Aaron Rodgers
RB JJ Arrington
WR Geoff McArthur
C Marvin Philip
OT Ryan O'Callaghan
DE Ryan Riddle
LB Wendell Hunter
ROV Matt Giordano

Unfortunately for Rodgers and Arrington, Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart were co-Offensive Players of the Year, giving them an edge in the Chase for the Heisman Trophy. However, they still have outside chances of pulling out an upset.Email This Post!
