re: Hope Willis is watching UCLA get schooled by lowly Baylor!quote: That was entirely true. Are you saying UCLA players dont get scouted by NFL teams or something? We aren't in the 1960s/1970s anymore. Reply • Back to Top |

Posted by TNTigerman on 12/29 at 9:10 pm to Meauxjeaux How can he possibly choose UCLA over LSU? UCLA sucks. They're nothing but a bunch of liberals out there. Not much football tradition in past 20 years, and they don't have an on-campus stadium. On the other hand, look at us! This post was edited on 12/29 at 9:11 pm Reply • Back to Top |

| This is directed at everyone. Why The Frick does it matter what his political beliefs are? He is 6'2 and a lock down DB. He can be a communist and I would want him on my squad. Let that B.S. go. If the distance doesn't matter he will be here. If it does, he won't. Pretty simple. Reply • Back to Top |
| UCLA plays in Pasadena, which is 45 minutes from thier Campus...can you imagine driving to New Orleans to see the Tigers play a home game? That alone has to hurt their recruiting Reply • Back to Top |
quote: What do you find so funny from my comment? If you think a guy can't get drafted from UCLA you simply have never watched the NFL or paid attention to the NFL draft. Reply • Back to Top |
quote: So you think NFL scouts, guys paid by Billion dollar NFL teams only watch CBS and EXPN games? Don't have anyone out in the 2nd largest city in the country? No access to the interwebs? Just from the 2012 draft the 9th pick was from Boston College, the 11th pick was from Memphis, how often you figure those teams were on TV?  There is being a homer and then there is just being willfully ignorant. Reply • Back to Top |
