    Witnessed Riva hot boxing his truck big time back in June. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Video or your whole story is probably true anyway because it fits perfectly with the rest of Sark's undisciplined program.

    FWIW I drove by his house in Broadmoor again the next morning and Keith Price was chatting it up with him in the driveway. Didn't see anything incriminating, unfortunately.

    Riva is our best lineman. I think he might sniff All Conference before he is done. The issue is we need 4 more just like him or better to have an above average line across the board.

    In closing, fuck Woodward.

    He's from Compton and always smiling and giggling of course he smokes weed.

    In fairness to Riva, there is nothing wrong with smoking some buds. A lot of athletes prefer smoking weed to drinking because it doesn't give you a hangover. It is possible to be an elite athlete and be a pothead (ex. most NBA players). Do we need Damone to give the and/or speech? Oregon was playing at a championship level on the field and chiefing like champions off it. I hope more of our players start smoking weed. It can't hurt anything.

    Best case scenario for the current OL:
    Hatchie:Nowhere to go but up. A year of experience could turn him into a mediocre left tackle
    Charles: Could actually end up being pretty decent when all is said and done. Played OK for a freshman last year.
    Criste: Hopefully he will be a serviceable center until Crane takes over. He would not see the field on any other contending Pac-12 team
    Atoe: Was OK at times last year. Hopefully Kohler or Tanigawa come back at full strength because Atoe is essentially the third string RG
    Riva: Probably the best potential. He looked very good at times last year but also looked just as shitty as the rest at times.

    The sad thing is that other than Eldrenkamp, the rest of the guys all seem just as useless. I would rather have one year of Chip Kelly's OL recruits than the entire stable that Sark and Cozzetto have brought in

    My prediction for Hatchie: He is, and always will be, a moron. His problems last year weren't always a guy dominating him. A lot of it was him blocking the wrong guy, not knowing the snap count, and not getting out of his stance quick enough (often because he didn't know the count/cadence). That is often not a coaching issue. Some guys just don't have football smarts, and Hatchie looks like one of them. The problem is, he is the only guy we have with enough talent to be a LT.

    Seems to be a lot of football talk on this board all over. Sounds like some folks have an agenda in saying there isn't. Whiny bitches gotta bitch. Goes with the territory I guesd
