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.About this Entry

Louisville had to dismiss a player after two arrests. Most recently for caring a concealed weapon, driving under the influence and not having insurance. They also lost a player after he was shot in the back at a nightclub. Both were WRs.
Georgia suspended a DE after the player punched a student and broke his eye socket. Another Bulldog player was suspended two games for an alcohol related arrest and two more were arrested on mismemeanor charges of battery after rubbing a pregnant women's stomach.
Even SC lost a couple of players to academics. Losing a couple of kids who never suited out for UCLA, never enrolled and would not even play this year is just not that big a deal.
Stop and think about this for one minute please.
The incoming class is STACKED with DBs who are attracted to playing for coach Walker. They are going to dominate playing time. So you have to expect the following year's recruits at those positions to be wary of coming here because it will be very hard for them to get playing time with such a lot of great players in the year before them. This is nothing to worry about. The secondary is going to be great for a long time to come.
This is Not a big deal, We are stacked at DB and we have more pressing needs elsewhere. This kid comitted way too early before he should of as a junior. Its time to start telling Cierre Wood that Weiss will be headed to the NFL after the Domers SUCK again.
Geez, nice grammar. Even if you're in a humongous hurry you wouldn't say "this is an articlel wrote for today's paper..."
That's just plain bad English skills.
dude lighten up, she simply missed a space and combined article+I into one word.
hers was just a mistype, unlike your last sentence which was a true example of being grammar-challenged. (using singular verb "is" describing plural "skills")
