Answers, Part XV
Here is the 15th set:
Was Morell Presley the silent commit you referred to a couple weeks ago?
Nope.
who is your favorite coach to talk to and why?
I don't have a favorite. I like talking to several of them because they offer different opinions and views on the same subject. And it's not a cop out, it's the truth.
We know you are not a fan of rankings, but do you think Morrell Presley is the real deal?
Nobody ever knows which players are the real deal. I think the chances are he will be a very good player, but there are no guarantees in it.
I read somewhere that Charles Siddoway's stock is dropping in the eyes of recruiters, have you heard the same? He seems to now hope UCLA is still interested (ESPN interview), is UCLA thinking of pulling their offer?
Let's just say I don't see Siddoway going to UCLA. And when the hometown school (Oregon) stops showing interest, that says a lot to me.
Does Chris Roberts, UCLA's radio play-by-play guy, have a "day job," either with the university or on his own?
I have no idea. I never asked him.
Let's test your LA sports knowledge...Who is the original Golden Throat?
I'm scared of this answer. Do I really want to know?
Have you ever thrown your shoes at the president (or anyone for that matter) during a press conference?
No, but there are plenty of times I wanted to throw something just to liven up the situation.
Do we get a Q&A next week? After all, Friday is a workday, and I'm sure we'll have loads of questions about Mercer and Wyoming. . .
Yes, I will do one, and get it banged out before I head to Birmingham to watch my Scarlet Knights crush N.C. State.



That Iraqi journalist has nothing on my mom when it comes to firing shoes at people. I got the shoe prints to prove it.
Juan El Guey, with all due respect, is your mom the famous Pancha "LA CHANCLA" Sanchez?
Chris Roberts sells real estates.
Poor Dohn, a true non-Los Angeleno. The immortal Chick Hearn is the original Golden Throat.
Me along with all my brothers and sisters all have mom shoe prints from flung shoes. Got a few belt buckle emblems from the dad as well.
Ditto all of the above, but mix in an extension chord when a belt wasn't handy!! :)
