Here is ninth set:

Any idea where we stand with the following BB recruits?
Keala King
Trey Zeigler
Ray McCallum
None have been offered to my knowledge.

What’s your take on the recruitment of Robert Woods and Paul Richardson, does UCLA get both or just one (Richardson) from what your sources tell you, also is Milton Knox thinking about transferring….never hear about him much…thanks as always Mr. Dohn
My sources tell me UCLA can get both Woods and Richardson, neither or them, or one of them. If the kids don’t know, how would I know? As for Knox, I asked him and he said he was not transferring. He loves UCLA, and given two running backs just left, it didn’t make sense for him to leave.

If you’ve ever had any personal interactions with O’Neill, what is he like and what do you think of him?
I have not had any dealings with him.

When you see Hasiak and Su’Filo at camp in August, what specifically will you be interested in seeing?
Whether they are in shape and whether they know what they are doing, in regards to assignments, in practice.

what attributes of a defensive tackle does darius savage lack? given ucla’s lack of depth at the position, both this year and next, it would seem a natural move. or is he just not a FB player?
His pad level is too high so offensive linemen can get underneath him and lift him off his feet. I am curious to see if they move Savage. I think it has a good chance of happening.

What were your thoughts on new DC Bullough during spring practice? How did the players respond to him?
The players responded well to him because he is no-nonsense, and because it was only 15 practices. In order to get a true read on things, you need to wait a full season to see how Bullough reacts in games, and how the players react to Bullough in the heat of the battle.

Is there any back story on Woods transferring?
None, other than the coaches do not want him to transfer.

I can make comments from my home computer, but not my office computer. However, I can comment on the USC blog at both home and work. What’s going on?

What’s the biggest adjustment that freshman FB players have to make once they arrive for college ball?
Speed of the game. Most go from being the best player on a high school team to just another player in college.
