Olson and the sixth

| | Comments (1) |

Before heading in for surgery to repair his broken foot, I spoke with UCLA quarterback Ben Olson about whether he would seek a sixth year of eligibility from the NCAA.
Basically (and as expected) Olson said he wouldn't qualify because you have to miss two complete seasons because of injury, and his injuries are spliced across three seasons.
"I talked to (Patrick) Cowan about it, because he looked at it, and you have to miss two full years,'' Olson said. "Plus, I plan on coming back this season. I'll be back this season. You can count on that."
