    Randy Shannon had no balls. Told players and coaches to stay away from Shapiro, yet still let him throw parties and financially support players. And run thru the smoke.

    Randy Shannon a bitch. If he actually didn't want to give access to Shapiro he could have cut the guy off.

    I'm guessing it's not that simple. You can't be there with them all the time.

    I fault Shannon for a lot of things but not this. He had a good sniffer and good street sense. But he can't be evrywhere.

    Just finished watching it, amazing. 30 for 30 is a godsend of a show. Would love to see them do UW football from James hiring onward through the upper campus betrayal and Willingham driving the stake into the heart of the program.

    That loss to Miami still haunts the UCLA program. I couldn't watch it tonight.

    A hurricane make up game after UCLA rang up 20 consecutive wins against a shit team. Win and they are playing Tennessee in the BCS title game and McNown probably wins the Heisman. Instead they blow a late lead, and got screwed on a fumble call (pre-replay). Lost the game. No title shot. Shit the bed in the Rosebowl vs Ron Dayne a month later.

    The UCLA program went into a tailspin after that game aided by two fucktarded hires and Pete Carrolls reign. They just now are emergin from that nightmare.


    That game did knock UCLA for a loop, but being objective, the underlying problem was that UCLA played shit defense.

    Loved Miami since mid 80's. In today's playoff system the final 4 matchups in 2000 would have been #1 Oklahoma vs UW and then #2 FSU vs Miami re match. That would have been unreal.

    The "fluke" at UW was funny. They bitched because they were behind #2 FSU in the polls (who they beat) yet were ahead of #4Washington who they lost to.

    Miami also beat #2 Virginia Tech though. True on being ahead of UW who they lost to.

    exactly. giving up 300 yds. to one running back, even though it was Edgerinn James, says you can play defense.
