Fall Camp
BearTerritory provided the most in-depth coverage of fall camp this year, as the Bears try to redeem themselves after a 5-7 finish in 2010.
The first stop on that road was the hiring of new strength and conditioning coach Mike Blasquez, who revolutionized the way Cal goes about its business in the weight room. Read all about his new regimen, and the state-of-the-art training equipment available in the Student Athlete High Performance Center in the fall kickoff feature, Bodies by Blasquez.
One of the most dynamic new faces on the roster is running back Brendan Bigelow, and though he's likely to redshirt this season, you'll want to be the first Cal on on your block to get the skinny on the dynamic playmaker before he makes it big in this story, Bigelow Hits the Ground Running.
As fall camp continued, speedy wide receiver Kaelin Clay was sidelined by a knee injury and Chris McCain stood out in several first week practice sessions and the newly-christened Avery Sebastian -- formerly Avery Walls -- rose through the ranks.

Veteran left tackle Mitchell Schwartz recovered from early hamstring trouble as junior quarterback Zach Maynard -- brother of sophomore wide receiver Keenan Allen -- continued to show improvement.
Before suiting up for the first scrimmage of camp, Cal paid a visit to AT&T Park to get used to their new home for the 2011 season. Junior college transfer C.J. Anderson ripped off several big runs in the first scrimmage to vault his way into the depth chart at tailback before the Bears borrowed Evans Diamond from the baseball team to get used to new playing surfaces.
As fall camp drew to a close, several freshmen shot up the depth chart, as did Spencer Hagan, who rose to the second tight end spot after converting from a wide receiver to H-back.
