UCLA men's basketball down, but Pac-10 opponents don't count Br...

As various Pac-10 head coaches and media members took their seats at the conference media day luncheon, the UCLA table filled up so fast, the Bruins required two.

With all the injury talk being said, I'll still take our lineup over anyone else's! Our YOUNGSTA's are as talented as any top-flight program in the NCAA. We'll be A-IGHT once we get through the early season...

Pre-season polls mean nothing. UCLA is still talented and the players will certainly show a better face than anticipated because there are no upper classmen to rely on. Naturally, they will excel.
It's all about practice and practice.. practice...should I say this 18 times?

I think we are going to need a big step up from Bobo morgan. Once our inside studs Love and Mata left, Aboya did his best imitation of the two last year. Now he is the only true "inside' presence I see. Verdict is still out on how he, Keefe and Gordon will do with banging bodies in the paint. Bobo is the only Bruin over 235 lbs (265).

We know Drago and Roll can shoot the lights out from deep but it is time for some of our sophomore studs to step up and make some plays (Lee and Anderson in particular).

It will be an interesting season but I hope the boys will surpirse everyone from the new "underdog' role.
