Yes, the official scuttlebutt is that our maligned wide receivers coach has been let go ($). (UPDATE: Here's an official release on Daft's departure). Daft has had a tumultuous few years as a Golden Bear--his receivers never seemed to improve, often regressed, and was one part of a multi-layered equation that resulted in our offense bottoming out and becoming perhaps the next-to-worse in the Pac-10 by season's end. While he probably never got a fair shake (it's not easy to be a receivers coach with the poor quarterback and offensive line play Daft had to deal with), the dropped balls and poor quarterback-receiver connections seem to be a strike against Daft's coaching, fair or unfair.

This exact quote COULD (and SHOULD) be appearing on our site, with a search and replace for the team name and WR coach's name. As we talk about Bullough and Chow, there's no doubt in my mind Moore should be booted as WR Coach, for the same reasons Cal just fired theirs.
