Evan Weaver has a way with words.
On Saturday evening, in the wake of Cal’s underwhelming 27-13 win over UC Davis, the senior linebacker sat on an elevated stage and radiated disappointment. His cheeks rosy red, his blond hair slicked neatly back, he leaned into a microphone and spewed molten lava.
