Check out the latest batch of weekly answers after the jump…

1) Do you think that Howland and staff see Reeves Nelson as a 5 (principally) rather than a 4? Is that why they’re pursuing other power forwards, i.e. Terrence Jones and CJ Leslie among others? Or do they just need depth? – Spencer
Nelson should be a five, albeit undersized. He doesn’t have the quickness of a tweener four. They’re pursuing PFs because they already have Smith and they need big bodies.

2) Can you post an injury update on Reeves Nelson? Does he play this weekend? – Spencer
Still undecided.

3) Mr. Gold, in your opinion what is the strongest football conference(s) next season? I think the Big Ten and the Pac 10 will be the strongest conferences next year considering the amount of talent returning back for both leagues. Thank you in advance. – Gilligan
The Pac-10 will be improved, albeit slightly. I don’t think any teams are going to take huge leaps, and I see Stanford regressing. I still say SEC then Big-10 then Pac-10 then Big-12 then ACC.

4) After this pas weekend, it’s hard to believe that Bobo Morgan is anything less than a poor defender. Hopefully this changes, but do you disagree with this statement? – Spencer
Given another year, maybe he improves. But his foot speed and recognition are lacking, although I think he has good physicality. He is certainly not up to Howland’s standards, though.

5) Can you give us some good news? Please? – Peter
I just saved 15 percent on my car insurance by switching to Geico. And the UCLA baseball team is pretty good. So is women’s basketball. Perk up little buddy.
