Cal record-setting receiver Demetris Robertson seeks greatness

Demetris Robertson surged onto the college football scene last season, posting numbers that topped Cal’s freshman marks for catches and receiving yards and that drew nearly unanimous glowing reviews. The lone dissenter? Himself. “It wasn’t really big to me,” the 6-foot, 190-pound speed burner said. “I don’t think it was a great season. I don’t consider myself a great receiver yet.” The key word in Robertson’s evaluation is probably “yet.” Cal’s most talented player is regularly the last one on the practice field, working for hours after his teammates have retired to the locker room or ice baths to perfect his craft.
