I haven't heard that Mark Sanchez is bad at reading defenses. The coaches used to say that was Carson Palmer's weakness. And early on, it was not Booty's strength but he got better and is fine now.

Matt Barkley is definitely the key QB prospect to land in the next two years so Christ might be irrelevant. As for UCLA recruits, it all depends on who the next coach is. If Dwayne Walker stays, I think EJ Woods and Co. would remain Bruins.

Pete Carroll outcoached Bill Callahan. That's why USC pays him millions of dollars a year.

You can take 65 players on the road for Pac-10 games. The rule was passed to limit how much class time athletes miss. In the old days, a team would take 85-90 players and most never played anyways.
