"Jones-Drew is a Little Big-Man"

Tetelestai — Fri, 16 May 2008 21:51:51 -0000

Scout.com has a short blurb on MoJo-Drew's success in the NFL. http://profootballexperts.scout.com/2/754984.html

Lot of rumors of Alex Stepheson transferring from UNC is swirling here. If Alex transfers to UCLA (to be close to his family in Southern California) he will have to sit out one year (would be awesome for front court depth in 09-10). Got the picture from kevin813's photostream.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar speaks at UCLA. It's not exactly about sports but it's Kareem so I reckon it's ok. He's yet another person who just "gets" what UCLA is all about. (via UCLANewsroom) [Bumped. GO BRUINS. -N]

I forgot that I came across this wonderful photo essay on $C's game against WSU a couple of months ago by a couple of Canadians...haha.

Plaschke's Solution for SuC: "Hold a news conference"

bluestreet — Wed, 14 May 2008 16:41:17 -0000

Plaschke things this whole mess can be cleared up with a PR blitz: They need to show their madly passionate fans who, in my experience, have always wanted to win the right way. They need to show their potential recruits, who are now hearing only the negatives. Hold a news conference. Bring out a compliance officer. Explain how the system works. Highlight the safeguards. Answer the questions. http://www.latimes.com/sports/printedition/la-sp-plaschke14-2008may14,0,72589.column?page=2

Bumped. GO BRUINS. -N For the last couple of years, the Geezers around here have been arguing that we are both a football and basketball school -- and and that we should always be both a football and basketball school. We want all of you youngsters to have the same experiences we had. And, now, we are on the path of return to prominence in football. When figuring out what picture to use as my Class of 66 identity, I settled on this part of my yell leader's sweater -- a special add on for the 1966 Rose Bowl Game we won. That was a magic year when a squad of "gutty little Bruins" (a term of honor not derision) under the coaching genius of Tommy Prothro, won the Rose Bowl. I post this now because I think we will soon see the magic that great coaching can bring to our football team, just as we have seen it in basketball. History has a way of repeating and our time has come. Go Bruins.

Not trying to beat a dead horse, but this analysis of our punting game last year is quite interesting. "The most prolific punting team was UCLA, with an astonishing 93 punts on the season for a robust 3899 yards. That’s right; the Bruins had more punting yards than 14 teams gained on offense. For comparison, UCLA punted for 992 more yards than Notre Dame gained with its offense. Karl Dorrell, this is your legacy." http://year2.wordpress.com/2008/05/13/punting-in-2007/

Michael Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser from the Washington Post (and ESPN's PTI) unloads on SCums: AD, coaching staff, Mayo and Reggie Bush. They talk about "mushroom cloud" and mock U$C as an "alleged academic institution." (Bumped. GO BRUINS. -N)

From UCLA Hoops, To Professional Football

Sissy didn't see the court much in her time at UCLA, but now she's making her mark by crushing weak little girls in the trenches for the Shreveport Aftershock Women's Tackle Football team. She is really cool and I think this is an awesome story, click the link to access the video. http://www.arklatexsports.com/news/From-UCLA-Hoops-To-Professional-Football-11666/
