. . .has been off-the-charts this year! Rich Rodriguez and West Virginia fallout has been rich. Neuheisel and his new staff, trying to reach deep down (hopefully not dirty) in trying to land recruits for his new tenure at fUCLA. It's been a blast wasting time while getting paid surfing the internets reading about all this delicious drama.

Chow sucks as a recruiter. Even tells potential employers "I suck at recruiting and won't dedicate myself to it. You'll pay someone exclusively to do all the recruiting for the team, do I still get the job?". (basically, that seems to me to be the only seriously important variable as to why he has never EVER landed a head coaching job ANYWHERE. the guy's an offensive guru. a QB's, RB's, and WR dream coach! puts up massive numbers and young men become way better players from having developed under his tutelage)

At this point in Coach Chow's life, all he really needs to do (and can be expected to do) is to sit in a quiet room and chat via phone/internets to potential recruits and their families. At most, maybe get himself all fucla-gussied up and pick them up at the airport, walk them around campus, pick up a burger or two with them at Tommy's (frak?).

What is "the NCAA test" anyway? Maybe Coach Chow needs a few months to acclimate himself to the doldrums now known (in his world that is) as the fucla campus? Besides, does he really wanna stay around long enough to HAVE TO TAKE the test in the first place? One and done? Two and through?

Unless fucla exhibits some sort of incredible run next year- up and through their bowl game (if they even get THERE) than it's likely DeWayne Walker doesn't stay around past this next year either. They're gonna have to do more than just a win one over us (not likely, but a possibility), win big over us (no way), AND hit at least a 9 or 10 win season for the smiles to remain on the Three Amigos (RN, DW, and NC).

Good luck with that. Not really, I just hope RN doesn't f_ck up too badly. The poor dummy has a great chance NOT to get a "fireslickrick dot com" website generated in his honor. The cats across town are, shall we say- short-on-fuse, and quite ill-tempered. And I'm being lenient with those words.

(love it btw: they lose DScott- not that they had a chance. AND we get Curtis McNeal from Venice. I think McNeal is a badass, better than most people think. He's had a great 2 years- I live real close to Venice High, Culver High, SaMo High and have seen some games over the past 4 years. wait guys. McNeal's the real deal. short, but powerful, fast, and strong as all get out. and then there's our O-line! best ever (on paper)IMHO. Did Telemaque and Casey commit?)
