Coach Wooden Hospitalized

Just saw this on MSNBC

LOS ANGELES - Former UCLA basketball coach John Wooden has been hospitalized for treatment of a possible recurrence of diverticulitis.

Daughter Nancy Muehlhausen said the 96-year-old Hall of Fame coach was admitted to a Los Angeles-area hospital Sunday because of bleeding in the colon.

"He's absolutely doing fine," Muehlhausen said Monday. "He's laughing and cracking jokes. He looks good."

Wooden had two blood transfusions and will need at least two more, she said. Doctors could keep Wooden in the hospital for a couple of more days, but Muehlhausen said her father was doing well.

Coach, all of us here at the Bruin Nation are praying for your quick return home and continued health!

MJD #6 on SI Rookie Watch

Reggie Bush does not make their top 10 list.
 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/0611/gallery.nfl.rookiewatch9/content.5.ht ml

"Jones-Drew keeps on racking up yards from scrimmage and he's a dangerous kick returner. Expect him to become an even bigger factor with the Jaguars, who are now in decent position for the AFC wild card. If David Garrard keeps the starting quarterback job, Jacksonville is likely to emphasize the running game and keep its pass routes shorter, which would mean more Jones-Drew."

Good to see MJD having a great year in the NFL.  Sadly, I cannot see any current Bruin that shows the potential to come close to his level of success after this year... and with KD at the helm, our current talent will flounder.  Lets hope DG takes action soon to allow this team a real chance at success.  Our current running game is average, Markey and Williams rarely have breakout runs.  Bell is a no-show this year.  Although, Markey is getting plenty of chances with KD's offense.  Run run and then run some more.

I was the game yesterday and although I always want to win, it is hard to get excited about anything when your team has penalties of 150+ yards, continues to not get plays in on time and beats a team who's quarterback hands us the ball three times in the game.  

I actually bought my season tickets after watching everygame on TV last season and wanted to be in person this year to root on this team.  Maybe I should just turn on the Jaguars game instead.  I feel like I got suckered by false advertising.  In truth, I didn't read BN back then, but I must say that renewing my season tickets is not likely unless DG brings in a new HC.
