"I think that's exactly what it should do for the love they have for coach Wilcox, Rolovich said. That's the best opportunity they have to really celebrate him as their coach."
""Sunday was tough," he said. "Monday, I wouldn't call it a hangover because it was out of love. . . . That's a tough thing for a young man to go through, for a guy that they had true love for to not be there for them was a shock.""
"I will be forever grateful for Coach Wilcox and the impact he had on me, linebacker Cade Uluave wrote on Twitter. He gave me an opportunity that changed my life and helped me become a better player and a better person. I'm truly thankful for everything he gave to us."
Cal elevated senior offensive analyst Nick Rolovich to interim head coach after Justin Wilcox was fired following the Stanford loss, leaving Wilcox with a nine-year 48-55 record. Rolovich wants the team to honor Wilcox by playing for each other in Saturday's regular-season finale against SMU and has prioritized managing players' emotions this week. Several players posted gratitude on social media, with linebacker Cade Uluave thanking Wilcox for life-changing opportunity and freshman quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele expressing thanks and noting Wilcox's legacy. The Bears (6-5, 3-4 ACC) seek their first winning season since 2019, and Senior Day will feel unusual due to many transfers.
