PrintBumped again for the evening. If more story breaks please fanpost it (if you want to add your own observations into it) or fanshot it in case it hasn't shown up on the home page. GO BRUINS. -N
Not a surprise that we are hearing lot of Chow rumors from either Trojan sources or people close to them. It's the same stuff that was floated few weeks ago, which we debunked few weeks ago on BN.
This afternoon we got the following email from UCLA regarding Coach Norm Chow:
He is planning on being at UCLA for the 2010 season.
That should settle the issue. Again any self-respecting reporter writing on this story should note that Chow is under contract through next season. Right now Chow rumors are nothing but desperate efforts from some corners to slow down UCLA's RED HOT recruiting momentum which currently is ON FIRE.
GO BRUINS.

Someone mentioned this before
but if there was ever a time for our alumni to donate a little more to keep Chow around, now is the time.
that's what I said!
Uko and Grimble will be looking at UCLA. If we are able to grab those two…WOW!
Also, Dietrich Riley, a soft commit to suc according to Biggins,
and his family love CRN and staff during this past wkend’s visit. CRN needs to close the deal on some of these SUC commits. That would be huge.
wait
I cant read the article on grimble! what does it say? is he making a visit or has he committed to UCLA?
I still don't understand why little kids wear 'SC apparel when they come to UCLA on field trips... newsflash--you're not cool

What's going on right now around our football program
is unbelievable. Incredible, I have no words. I’m literally jumping out of my seat at work every five minutes…

From John Gold
“It didn’t take Rick Neuheisel long to make an impression on one USC commit.
Bishop Gorman (Nev.) tight end Xavier Grimble, the number one tight end prospect in the country, loves the approach the UCLA head coach is taking with him, on a personal level. But he’s not ready to jump ship just yet.”
Throw one into the passion bucket
you guys should read 'littlebrother's' link

It's interesting to note
where we were at early in the recruiting process. I heard some grumbling about not getting too many early commits. If following his first 2 classes shows, CRN only gets stronger as the process goes on. I’m also happy to see Chow will stay as getting the offense going is a must with such a brutal schedule.
GO BRUINS!!!

I forgot who on this board mentioned
that legs were breaking all over los angeles as bandwagon trojan fans were jumping off. Today is the day that it happens again. Expect bumps on the 405, 10, 101, 110, 60, 605, 710, and 5
Watch
All the “journalists” at the wrap will change their tune as well.

Bandwagon end!!!!
I’m so loving the crumbling of the 50 million bandwagon fans in area.
If that's the case, they can stay where they're at!

Problem is...
Some of the “Raider” fan will now jump off the sinking ship and swim over to the Rose Bowl :(
I thought I was the only one
who equated P-U$C bandwagoners with being ex L.A. and current Oakland Raiders groupie fans.
After the Rams and Raiders left and SUC started to dominate college
football, many of the gangsters started sporting SUC apparels
EPIC day in Los Angeles Sports history
This is the end of an era. The momentum shift is shocking. Good news for us left and right. Troy is going up in flames.
It must be true that LA is big enough for only one football powerhouse

so my family’s happy about that"
Apparently suc has changed it's fight song. Here's a sample:
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we rifle, and loot,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don’t give a hoot,
Drink up me ’earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We extort, we pilfer, we filch, and sack,
Drink up, me ’earties, yo ho.
Maraud and embezzle, and even high-jack,
Drink up, me ’earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We kindle and char, inflame and ignite,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We burn up the city, we’re really a fright,
Drink up, me ’earties, yo ho.
We’re rascals, scoundrels, villans, and knaves,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We’re devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
Drink up, me ’earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We’re beggars and blighters, ne’er-do-well cads,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Aye, but we’re loved by our mommies and dads,
Drink up, me ’earties, yo ho.
LOL
The band could probably play that one too since it is repetitive without too many notes.

Chow
Do you guys really see Chow leaving after he’s busting his ass hosting recruits, traveling, etc. to make this program viable to leave just after he gets all the talent to come here? Chow signed on the dotted line with CRN with a real goal to win/compete for national titles. Not to eat a free lunch. That was the NFL.
He’ll be back next year, unless we do an $C epic fail and show him the door before the ball really gets rolling.

things keep getting better and better.
This is the fun part
There’s a short period when the tide has completely turned and it’s rushing out, but typical $CFan doesn’t realize (aided by journo lackeys) what’s going on, and they expect that everything great is going to happen for them just because they’re $C. Well of course the best coaches and players want to come to $C—why wouldn’t they want to go to a tainted chaotic underperforming program that’s about to suffer significant penalites and defections? The delusion and hubris are fun to watch.
I haven’t been reading too many stories or following too closely, but one of the big problems at $C is the departure of the President, Samples. He actually gave the school academic credibility and stability that it never had before; it was annoying and wildly overdue, but you had to respect it. The timing of his departure a few months ago is interesting in all of this. I don’t know that they’re related, and the over-the-top or out-of-control Carroll-Garrett-Floyd-Bush-Mayo era is more of a black mark for Samples, with his legitimate academic accomplishments, than it is for any of the the principals. Guys like Carroll are supposed to cheat and win, to some degree, and it’s part of the abhorrent nature of $C football. When all you could see were National titles and a rising academic reputation, with the UCs are under siege with state budget horrors, it was tough to watch. Samples stayed the course with Garrett, however, and now it looks really bad.
I got no respect for Samples.
To me, there are far too many ethical issues at U$C and the buck stops (and started) with him.
is this old news?
I really think its really important that SC gets some sanctions placed on it just to put the icing on the cake. Del Rio and the rest of the candidates dont really scare me, but we cant take for granted that they do still have some great talent down there, and we dont want them crawling back up the ladder any time soon.
William Doolittle at your service, a.k.a. will do.
ah my bad
i’ve been in and out of so many threads I hadnt noticed if anyone posted that the dates had actually been set for the NCAA to meet with SC officials in Tempe, and hopefully give them the axe : )
William Doolittle at your service, a.k.a. will do.
Too many threads on the same topic....
Some streamlining would be nice.
These rumors are creations of the Troylets and their fans (and journalist sycophants) to try to help U$C’s recruiting, nothing more, nothing less.
The whole U$C semi-pro regime is falling apart before their eyes.
What a sweet weekend, despite the embarrassment at Stanford.
Bleeding powderkeg blue and gold for 55 years. Go Bruins!
Pfft... we can handle an "off" basketball season.
CBH and his players will learn from this. They don’t have the silver-spoon mentality some folks (ahem!) seem to be born with.
I predict this will be an interesting year for those of us in the Bruins Nation. :-)
GO BRUINS!!!
my favorite part
is the line where it states that U$C is the most successful athletic program in the NCAA.
HAH!
