UA does well in landing recruit
• This was a great grab, especially so late.
Need 1-2 more . . . maybe Lance Stephenson and either a hard-nosed 4, or a backup point. The hot new point is in the 2010 class.
It’s so nice to reload. 3829
• Time will indeed tell. In the meantime, the main guard is the “old guard” . . . Nic the Quick. BLKOJO

RE: Lawmakers push for college football playoff
• It comes as no great surprise a Texan is bleating over this.
Throw in fan pressure from USC, Florida, Florida State, LSU and other powerhouses, and what you WILL end up with are 10-15 programs who land the very best recruits every year. Before long those schools will achieve complete dominance over berths in the so-called “playoffs.”
Is that what you really want? Just look at the Pac-10 . . . USC football basically owns the conference, and has for years now.
In similar manner the so-called playoffs will become an annual feed-fest for the few, and for the sports media who are also pushing as hard as they can.
Be careful what you wish for, people. This playoff hoo-hah may become your very worst nightmare. JOSE S.
