Around SBN: Steve McNair Dead - Former NFL QB Shot and Killed


Rose considering UCLA

Derrick Rose is now considering UCLA. I'm not sure he is the kind of player Howland would take at UCLA; he's probably a one-and-done if he is all that he's cracked up to be. Still, he's quite a talent and the press around here (I live in Chicago) is really talking him up.

Here's the link to the story:

Very interesting
I am sure Kevin Love is behind this.  Apparently there has been lot of rumors about Love recruiting Rose hard to come to UCLA with him. Rose would be a one and done type, but he could be that perfect transition pg before Jrue Holiday/Drew/Lee class of pg gets to Westwood in 2008.

Just two days ago
there was "no chance in hell" Rose comes to UCLA.  Now high interest and among his final choices with an official visit forthcoming if I'm reading the article right.  Yes, this has KL's fingerprints all over it.

Thank God for Ben Howland.

Singler
Think KL has enough influence with Kyle Singler to point him toward Westwood?  I know there's a problem with available scholarships, though.

Singler
will go to Duke.

I don't think at this point KL is bothering with trying to convince his Oregon friend to get to Westwood.

Plus we are well stocked at Singler's position at this point.
