Michael Phelps & A Question Re. UCLA's Swimming Program
Michael Phelps is absolutely amazing. Michigan fans are understandably beaming with Woliverine pride. The question I still have is why don't we have a men's swim team. I understand that cuts were made due to Title IX. But why can't the Morgan Center do some fund raising and bring back this program. We have our own olympic tradition when it comes to men's swimming. We have our own heroes in Tom Jager. Why can't we bring this program back so that we can cheer for more Tom Jagers in upcoming olympics?

"Combine a brutal schedule and a squad laden with questions and you get a tough first season for Rick Neuheisel," says Ted Miller adding, "The biggest issue is the offensive line, which feeds into the question of how well -- and how long -- will injury-prone quarterback Ben Olson play. On defense, the secondary is being rebuilt.

Football 101: Dohn Compares Dorrell to Neuheisel/Chow
Last season Karl Dorrell refused to answer one of your questions saying 'That would be Football 101' or something to that effect. Is Coach Nueheisal's version of football 101 much different? Did you get a chance to take a refresher course on Football during the off season so you'd be prepped this time around? With UCLA's basketball run to another Final Four berth, and with adding to the family, I didn't get a chance to take a refresher course. However, in talking to Nueheisel and offensive coordinator Norm Chow, they were kind enough to dumb the offense down for me (and other media types) this season so such explanations wouldn't be needed. And, as a side benefit, it appears the offense is much simpler for the players to understand as well.

UCLA Can Overtake Duke Tonight!
"Duke's 12 picks are the most of any school this decade. UCLA has 10 picks and will add at least two more Thursday night. UCLA sophomore Russell Westbrook and freshman Kevin Love almost assuredly will be taken among the top 20 picks. Junior Luc Richard Mbah a Moute is not considered a first-round pick but could go in the second. Duke has one player eligible for the draft, DeMarcus Nelson, and he isn't expected to be drafted. "
Floyd's Star Recruit Converts to Mormonism To "Improve" Academics
Shocker out of South Central. Their best recruit who was in serious academic trouble suddenly qualifies for SuC by taking "correspondence courses" at BYU. No report on what those (online?) courses he took through BYU. Virtues of polygamy?
