    Good read, I'm glad that Reeves Nelson was kicked off the program.

    great article its been a huge disappointment seeing how the program fell the times I met anderson and nelson I could tell they were complete jackasses and did not deserve to wear a UCLA jersey - despite the way nelson produced. I attended one of their practices last season and you could tell the practices werent very disciplined.

    hopefully howland can turn it around but he cant be coddling any top 50 recruit he gets he needs to go back to getting solid kids who can play and not just athletes.

    To me, it's like Blue Chips come to life...only with a tenth of the talent.

    They're going to have to can Howland in April. You can ease up as a coach, but it never works when a guy tries to become a disciplinarian after letting the team run wild.
