Cal disrespect?

How bad does Cal want to beat Stanford? Well, so bad that it's written specifically into first-year coach Justin Wilcox's contract. Lead the Golden Bears to a win over the Cardinal — including their upcoming matchup Nov. 18 — and Wilcox will receive a $25,000 bonus. Wins over UCLA, Southern California or Oregon, meanwhile, will earn him $10,000 apiece, as long as the team in question finishes with at least six regular-season victories.
Oregon is a rival worthy of a bonus but UW Isn,t?

    Might have to do with recruiting rivalry. Oregon has historically had a NorCal pipeline for talent that Cal wants and thinks it should get; UW doesn't recruit as aggressively in NorCal.

    How 'bout this: If Pete beats Oregon and UCLA, he gets to continue being UW's coach.

    First rule of motivating subordinates:

    Don't offer incentives for doing the impossible. It has the opposite effect in that it demotivates.
