WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

UCLA assistant coach Adrian Klemm has been fined $5,000 and handed a two-year show-cause order for paying $2,400 for housing and private training for two prospects, the NCAA announced Friday. One of the prospects was also afforded a second official visit paid for by UCLA, while NCAA rules allow for just one. UCLA previously self-imposed five other penalties, which have all been completed.

The NCAA first became aware of potential recruiting violations when Klemm's former girlfriend sent an email to the NCAA in November 2014. Klemm's show-case order will run from Sept. 16, 2016, to Sept. 15, 2008.>

  WannaBe: My Fourth favourite Canadian, youngman Molsen, (after Wayne Gretzky, William Shatner, <Penguincw>) have given Ucla 10-3 lead!

He's my fourth favourite, because I did not get any tickets to the World Cup of Hockey.

  WannaBe: Half-time, 10-3 lead. Them Jumpin' Tree are scary, Ucla playing better than I expected.

Bruins radio announcers said defensive coordinators are stacking the box and challenging Stanford to throw the ball. (To order to contain McCaffrey).

  saffuna: Sounds like UCLA defense played great, giving up only 16 after 50 last year. The offense just couldn't do much, only TD after a interception in Stanford territory. And with both Stanford cornerbacks injured.

Stanford needs to find a quarterback, or teams will line up only to stop McCaffrey.

  WannaBe: Raiders escape Tennessee with a win, thanks to personal foul and an offensive pass interference on Titans on the final drive.

Phew... On to SF/SEA game.
