Hired recently by the Oakland Raiders as their secondary coach, former Kansas City Chiefs defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast has a new job.

Pendergast has accepted a position as the new defensive coordinator at Cal-Berkeley, per a league source.

Pendergast was replaced in Kansas City by Romeo Crennel.

Now, he has joined Jeff Tedford's staff after an extremely brief tenure in Oakland.

He replaces Bob Gregory, who left to join the Boise State staff as a defensive assistant.

Gregory spent eight seasons in Berkeley.

"I appreciate Bob's dedication and loyalty to the Cal football program over the last eight seasons," Tedford said in a statement. "This was coach Gregory's decision all the way to make what he feels is the best move for his family."

pendergast is/was better than just a DB coach.this isn't alarmimg,it's expected that a coach with his experience would eventually leave.maybe he saw that Hugh Jackson would be the most likely candidate to become the next head coach of the raiders.Jacksons' next coaching job will be as a head coach,somewhere.i'm sure that is the obvious sentiment,league wide.the same goes for Leslie Frazier.

Wouldn't you want to get out of the Black Hole if you could? Especially for a step up the coaching ladder.
