More Luc
I spoke with Kevin Sutton, the high school coach of UCLA power forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute this morning, and one nice thing Sutton told me was he and his wife are driving to San Antonio for the Final Four.
"We talked and he said if they made the Final Four, he wanted us to come,'' said Sutton, the coach at Montverde (Fla.) Academy. "When they made it, he called right away. We weren't able to go to the last two, so this will be nice."
The drive is about 17 hours, Sutton said, and should be nice for Mbah a Moute, whose parents aren't able to make the trip from Cameroon to see him play.

About Inside UCLA
This is Brian Dohn's sixth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.
That's a nice gesture. Also helps CBH cement a relationship with a coach.
Trust me.
Luc's Mother made the trip and will be in attendance on Saturday.
