Making the grade

| | Comments (7) |

Forgot to mention this the other day, but from what I understand all but one member of UCLA's recruiting class has preliminarily made it through admissions. And, no, I don't feel comfortable singling that player out.
Also, it is my understanding Los Angeles Cathedral receiver Randall Carroll made it through admissions. UCLA continues to recruit Carroll even though sources are saying USC coach Pete Carroll went a long way in patching things up with Randall last week.

Brian,

Is there still hope that this player can improve his grades this semester and be admitted? Or can he retake the SAT or ACT?

Or will this guy simply look elsewhere?

Is there a chance this person will eventually qualify? Or is he definitely out?

Can't confirm Carrolls presence but I can say that I saw tepa and thigpen with the families and coach Neu at the game.

Brian, can you please let us know if the one player who didn't qualify will be able to change that status? Thanks

The player has plenty of time to make up the academic shortfall.

It's so frustrating to see academic problems keeping athletes out of UCLA. My best friend tutored the USC football team, and I saw some of their papers. My 9 year old cousin can write better than some of them.
