Explain to me why people say California public schools are so bad, when University of California system is one of if not the most prestigious public state university system in the US and is renowned worldwide?

I never got this paradox. Yes to enter a University of California, even a lower ranked ones like Merced or Riverside you need to be ranked top 10% in terms of the GPA, meaning the UCs only accept the top 10% of the CA public school students. But still, can someone explain to me?
