Nothing will keep this guy down.....

Here is a link from ESPN about how nothing can stop CBH from doing his job as Caretaker of John Wooden's program. We are lucky to have this man leading out storied basketball program.

From ESPN:

"Ben Howland's right side had been bothering him for about a week. But it wasn't pressing enough to keep him from traveling during a recruiting period.

So, the UCLA men's basketball coach plugged on and flew to Portland and Detroit before coming back on Sept. 13, when he realized the ache was now a pain that wasn't going away."

Thank God for Ben Howland.

Bumped. Some people call him Mauriceee - Woo Whew! He is still MJD to BN. GO BRUINS. -N

Even though MJD isn't in UCLA blue anymore, he's making sure everybody knows how he feels about UCLA and the $cum across town.

When asked how he feels a about UCLA, he doesn't hold anything back.

To go to a great school like UCLA to get that degree where kids at other schools might become ... and this is no knock...you go to UCLA, you're guaranteed a job at NASA pretty much. That's what happens. You go to UCLA, you might become the next president. It's up there like that. Another great thing about UCLA, they don't lower their standards for their athletes. It was always the same as the regular students. I assume at USC they do other things like pay 'em. But they hold them up to the same standards and when you get like that it does scare some kids away."

Possible Center for this years class?

For those that havent seen it yet, Rivals is reporting that J'Mison Morgan has asked for his release from his LOI.

The article is on a pay site but it does go on to say his new number 1 choice is a certain school that has 100 NCAA Championships.

This is still in the early stages, but so far it seems like we have a good shot.

He has already been cleared to play at UCLA and the open scholarship left open by Stanback would make this a reality.

If you hear anything new, please let us know on this thread.
