Cal Poly's new head coach Mike DeGeorge hopes to begin the type of program rejuvenation currently taking place at California when the Mustangs visit the Golden Bears on Thursday night for a nonconference game in Berkeley, Calif. DeGeorge, who spent the last six seasons at Division II Colorado Mesa, has inherited a Mustangs team that went 0-20 in the Big West Conference a year ago and 4-28 overall under coach John Smith. Cal Poly (0-1) debuted a much more offensive-minded style of play Tuesday night in an 86-78 loss at San Francisco. The Mustangs had averaged just 60.8 and 63.
