he should be fired. but since we're talking USC's athletic department, I'm sure nobody is even aware he said it.

I'm sure UCLA's athletic dept. was unaware as well...we are talking about women's basketball after all.

Notes:

1. Cooper got a little carried away, perhaps he was trying to be funny, but a reprimand is not in order since he apologized

2. What is with this cross-over of SUCLA idiots coming on to the SC blog and consistently, constantly, and crassly commenting about SC?-- Personally I take it as a backhanded compliment because if SC was irrelevant there would be no attention. Personally, when I see spedjones or charlie tuna or whatever he calls himself etc etc I don't read the post and move on to the next.

3. Still, the vile and vulgar language that is used not only on this blog but on SUCLA's is disconcerting to say the least. But it probably is inevitable because anonymous people will display their worst behavior i.e. driving, at a game, or on a blog.

4. Look at it logically, why would SUCLA hate ol' SC and be placing all their hope on SC sanctions? Because SC owns SUCLA, that is why-- 10 football victories in 11-years, a Pac-10 Tournament Championship in 2009 with a wipeout victory over SUCLA that resulted in SUCLA being sent to a more difficult regional (and predictable wipeout loss), and now another wipeout in Pauley with the fan base exiting the stadium early in disgust, dismay and depression.

In sum, it don't get no better than this.

Since when does USC's administration show any sort of control over it's coaches? Let's talk about it in the locker room!

trOJies...keepin' it classy as usual!!!

Bleep spud errr sped!

Not just for this above whiney negative crap, but for all the rest of the tripe you leave on this board week in and week out you whiner! I took a field trip over to that across town board a week or so ago, some guy named Gold is the procter I think. All I have to ask you Mr Spud is if your nose is broken yet from having it so deeply impacted up Golds backside? I think you fit better over there on the losers side of town!
Fight On Trojans and Piss Off spud! (and you know as all of us do, that you really do wish that you were a Trojan!

Hey Rodneeeeeeeeeee,
I really appreciate your constant dissertations on the subject of "class." I know your are an expert on the subject having studied under the tutelage of the King of Klass, Slick Rick.
Thank you.

Good Story, Jill...you got a lot of mileage and hits out of this one. It must feel good to take a flippant remark at a presser, and spin it into a point of emphasis on the coverage of woman's basketball. Great for the sport! Scott taught you well. Keep us informed on this critical issue.

Yeah, I used to think Painter had some class, but this last story seems less than tacky and she's just trying to hook some notoriety. I do however, have to say I enjoyed Brian Dohns objectivity on his Blog.

For the most part, I wonder if the Wolfman, with his constant and pervasive antagonism toward anything USC is going to keep his Heritage Hall Pass. I don't think his schtick is going to play well with the current staff, Daily News or not!

amusing how the most corrupt regimes are always trying to stifle the press and attempt to vilify those who demand transparency. here we see classic Nixon behavior by Garrett's administration, and now his rhetoric is even parroted by the Kool-Aiders on this blog. Now the cyber bullies are trying to suppress Jill Painter for reporting the simple facts, and trying to keep non-Southern Cal Kool-Aid guzzlers from enjoying wolfman's blog by claiming they are "profane" or "vile".

chucker bucker has never uttered a profane word on this blog, nor has Yo-Duh, unemployed USC guy, and most others. so this is really about quieting helpers and truth seekers. but rest assured, cyber-thugs, we will not be silenced!!!!!

haha. I got my SC acceptance letter the 2nd week of November. Before I even sent my UCLA app out. It was a nice fallback, but certainly not the place for anyone looking for a real education.

spedjones - that acceptance letter you received was a response to you application for a janitorial position.

PABLITO - hilarious.

spedjones Author Profile Page said:

No, no, it was my SC acceptance letter. Let's not pretend SC is hard to get into.

I like the hire of Michael Cooper as coach of our women's basketball team and think he's a shot in the arm for the program, but for a representative of our university to conduct himself in such a disrepectful manner is an embarrassment to USC. To use the F word, even when discussing UCLA, reflects poorly on USC.

You can dislike UCLA or ND or anyone else, but conduct yourself with dignity and class when representing our university, Coach Cooper.

BE REAL? ARENT YOU A REGULAR ON THE BRUIN BLOG?

BRUINBEATCH Author Profile Page said:

BE REAL IS A REGULAR ON BRUIN BLOG AS IS LAWYER JOHN..WHAT A NAME WHAT A COCK!

I say we give Coop a mulligan on this one.

I appreciate his passion and assume he has embraced the importance of the rivalry in this city. I am sure the sentiment he expressed has been uttered lots of times by coaches on both sides.....just not in a public forum.

I think Coop will be hugely successful

BRUIN NC Author Profile Page said:

BE REAL is always on the UCLA blog saying how his fellow $UC fans are classless. DFW Trojan and LAWYER JOHN do the exact same thing. You $UC fans should take note- they probably are just frontrunners and will jump to ND or UCLA as soon as that crappy Figueroa Tech football team goes in the toilet.

I just love all the bRuin dbags trashing USC. Boys, your football team has done NOTHING since 1954. Sorry. Back to Girly Ball.

NOBS Author Profile Page said:

I got a copy of Cooper's letter:

Dear Nikki:

I'm so sorry our team kicked your as$, just like the men's team did to that sorry sad sack bunch of crap Gentle Ben coaches. My comments were not the right thing to say to a bunch of dumb "C" word like you and your team. Although you brought along a group of dbag "students", ones that couldn't get into USC, that created a scene and lacked any class, I should have kept my mouth shut. Any way, love you and sorry.

Fucla,

Michael

Thank you Nemesis for that dignified, feminine touch. We need that from a girl like you. Forgive Michael. At a university like both SC and the wannabe magnet school on the westside, however, when the football coaches are dishonest, totally lacking in ethics and integrity, cheat on the rules, you need a refreshing and honest, outstanding coach like Michael Cooper. It's OK, Coach, you can say bleep ucla every time you beat them.
