This is what I see happening in the near future and the beginning of the end of the pompous, bombastic, classless, trojan arrogance found in their fans and players.


With Norm Chow coming back to the college ranks as UCLA's Offensive Coordinator. He now has the opportunity to put Carroll back in his NFLoser place, for Carroll's misguided jealousy of Chows much deserved credit for USUC's success. The Bruins now have the trifecta of solid coaches to start rebuilding a football program to take back Los Angeles and fulfill its BCS aspirations. With strong, knowledgeable and sought after coaches in Neuheisal, Walker and Chow. UCLA has the stature and instant credibility to lure talented football players to Westwood who are now assured not only an honest academic education, but coached by the best with NFL career aspirations. The Bruin faithful can now believe UCLA will soon have a football team our highly regarded, renowned and unpresumptuous university of the people can be proud of.



Let us now officially recognize that our ½ Decade of Debacle of Dorrell is now over. We should also commend ourselves for recognizing a bad hiring earlier than our less then esteemed brothers in the City of Angeles did. Oh, wait. Has it already been forgotten? The trojan futility during the nineties with the failed second coming of John Robinson and then Paul Hackett. A period of time conveniently forgotten by trojan faithful and bandwagoners with their USUC embroidered hats, t-shirts, shorts, sweats, jackets, flags and beach chairs splayed across Southern California. How could eight straight wins over the trojans by the Bruins, losses to Utah in the Las Vegas Bowl and 8th place finishes in the Pac-10 conference be forgotten so easily.



Oh yes, it is so very easy to forget about a losing past when your helped by money grubbing, NFL flopping cheating players like Reggie Bush. When the NCAA comes down hard on the USUC trojans, the whole Bush-Gate debacle will unleash sanctions against USUC that have not been seen since SMU received the death penalty for their money grubbing cheating players. To all the USUC apologists, please save your tired arguments that Bush acted on his own and without the knowledge of USUC. Yes, the coaches knew what was going on, yes those in the football operations knew what was going on, yes the players knew what was going on, and yes USUC should have the NCAA throw the book at them. Everyone is singing a tune to the NCAA. But its a NEW ERA and Bush is the only one not carrying the same tune as everyone else. Wonder why?



A very bleak future is predicted USUC. With sanctions, loss of scholarships, stripped wins, ill-gotten titles and a tarnished heisman, how easy will it be now to keep the arrogance going for the USUC fans. No recruits will come to a damaged program, Carroll will not stick around to rebuild, and essentially, you go back to the Paul Hackett days and 6-6 seasons. How long will all those USUC bandwagon fans continue to wear the gear, fly the flags and fill a 90,000-seat stadium to watch cheaters and losers finish tied for 6th in the Pac-10 conference and lose in a bottom tier bowl game to a second rate opponent. Inconceivable? It shouldn't be, the year was 1998, just 10 short years ago. Sleep well trojan fan. Sleep well.
