After stating in a completely respectful manner that it was time to move on from the constant Dorrell bashing, I was called a bandwagon fan, a troll, a liar, and mocked by Nestor and his crew. After a while my comments were getting deleted, and I've now been issued a ban.

I'm not going to lie, but this situation makes me embarrassed to be a UCLA fan. I really wish that there was some way to report this to SBN because it's completely out of control.

Edit - Paragon...

I will leave this up and use it a cautionary tale. Those guys can run their ship any way they want. Whether some like it or not I tend to let people have their say even if I don't agree. I do have to set some limits though. I think many non SC fans can see that we will listen to just about any rational POV even if it is not Pro USC.

I won't accept personal attacks on our members and I can't have attacks on Nestor. I let our members pretty much state what they feel...but please understand that I can't let everything pass.

I am closing comments on this so it doesn't turn into a BN/Nestor bashing party. We know what they are about and that is fine, it is their show...

What did he expect exactly?

Five-star athlete Tony Jefferson (Chula Vista, Calif./Eastlake) decommitted from UCLA following an official visit to USC and will now decide for either the Trojans or the Oklahoma Sooners, ESPN's Greg Biggins reports.

"The UCLA players really disrespected me before the game," Jefferson said. "When they saw me, they were all cussing at me, telling me to never come around Westwood again and things like that. These were guys that I had hung out with before and it was a lot of the team. I guess I kind of see it since I was committed there and was wearing USC gear before their big game but I still didn't appreciate it."

The nation's No. 1-rated ATH will not take anymore trips. "Oklahoma is coming over Tuesday for a home visit. I'm sure USC will be coming in too but we haven't discussed it yet. Like I said, right now, the two are dead even and I really like both schools a lot. This whole recruiting thing has been crazy and I can't wait for it to end. There has been so many twists and turns but it should be over soon and I'll be glad when it is."

The ESPNU 150 prospect initially committed to Stanford as a junior.

Bumped. GO BRUINS. -N

UCLA (13) -- Last year the Bruins followed their upset of Tennessee with a 59-0 nuking from BYU. This year they're fortunate to host 1-1 Kansas State, which has scored offensive points in two of its eight quarters of play against mighty Massachusetts and Louisiana-Lafayette this season. (The exhuming of Bill Snyder is paying immediate dividends in Manhattan.) Still, the Bruins have been warned.

Clearly after such a program defining victory this past Saturday it is extremely important not to get ahead of ourselves, and avoid a letdown. This has all the makings of a trap game just waiting to happen. What with the injury to Prince, and the huge high that the Bruins have to be riding coming off of the victory at Rocky Top, it gets very easy to overlook an opponent like Kansas State.

A dominating win will most likely put UCLA in the top 25, and would really give us some nice momentum going into the bye week. However a loss would almost certainly throw a wrench into the progress being made this season. A simple solution to a letdown however is good coaching, which I'm positive that we're all in agreement that there is an abundance of in Westwood. So while we remain relentlessly positive, I believe that it is also imperative to stay cautiously optimistic.
