    Seattle sports media is sofa king stupid they actually asked Fish, "Is there any truth to the UCLA rumors?" Right, I'm going to be interested in a job that pays less, has less upper campus support, awful fan participation, and hasn't been relevant in CFB in decades. Sign me up!

    JFC that really happened?!

    If I was Fisch I'd ask them why the fuck I just went through a shitty 6-7 season full of patchwork position groups just to maybe have 1 good season and then dip to a basketball school? To save a few flight down to LA for recruiting?

    This is just what happens now but so, sooooo much cope from UCLA, Virginia Tech, and Arkansas right now.

    It did. Not sure which one of the buffoons asked it: Softy, Kim, Nachos, Raley… take your pick, it's a room full of morons.

    If memory serves me correctly, I believe UCLA was last relevant when they beat Miami maybe 25ish years ago in an upset.

    UCLA hasn't been truly relevant since the 90s. They had some years in the 2000s and 2010s where they would beat big name teams early and then completely fall apart. They got a little juice under Mora but couldn't get over the good, but nowhere near great hump.

    I just looked it up, UCLA beat Miami in the Orange Bowl to become 10-0, I’m sure they faded to close the season because Toledo was the HC. I remember hearing it on Atlanta sports radio driving because I had taken a leave of absence from Boeing for a court issue. Now that I think about it, that was the year we? beat ASU in Temple on a end of game’ish Hail Mary, can’t remember the TE that caught the ball but Huard tossed the ball. This was back before I gave up on the M’s and baseball when Sosa and McGuire were having their epic hr chase.

    The late @DeLarry and I always yearned for Sark to Arkansas… So we could text "Sarkansas!" to each other.

    Yes we were dorks.

    There isn't a thread on it but the Arkansas video yesterday was fascinating. If you're a little SEC state with no major metro area then you're ENTIRE advantage was having athletes in your backyard that you can slip a thousand dollars to once in a while.

    To admit, in a recorded booster event, that you aren't set up to win a national championship but that's okay because you can in basketball and baseball spells out the reality for 3/5 of that conference, at least.

    With the situation being what it is, to admit to people that you ask millions of dollars from that you're basically Oregon State of the SEC is a big deal down there.
