The @uclaanderson forecast director @jnickelsburg just announced his retirement! He's been quite the legend in California economics. 👏(Don't worry, like any good academic, will only be semi-retired)

It's a great time to be a Hornet, as Lance Hastings would say, it's been an incredible 8 years, celebrating and supporting our great university, and doing the work with such incredible people.

Had the privilege of meeting the new @SacState 🏈 Coach, Brennan Marion!

He's an inspiring guy who has already secured the best recruiting class in FCS and he'll be installing one of the most exciting offenses in football!

@SacHornetsFB is on its way back to #1! #StingersUp!
