"One of the obvious solutions to get scores up is to increase resources," Morris said, noting the hiring of a full-time life-skills position and a "learning specialist," who focuses on the needs of athletes with learning disabilities or those who may need extra help."

I thought you weren't supposed to graduate from high school if you were/are illiterate. There are soooo many things wrong with this picture.

The real question is whether or not the combined win total of the Cougs and Huskies will equal ASU's win total this year. My guess is NO.

We could add up Rose Bowl wins for UW/WSU vs. ASU.......the only REAL measuring stick for Pac-10 teams.

We could even subtract WSU's RB wins from UW's, and STILL ASU is so fargin' far behind they'll likely never catch up.

Like I've been saying all along.......it's better to be a has-been than a never-was.

Oh, no.

A Toejam fan?

And I thought the Devil fan was a little hard to take.

I'm not exactly sure how to go about clowning on SC, being a UW fan. I guess it must be kinda like when WSU and ASU fans try to clown on UW. ;\)

Just stirring the pot - I don't have total love for USC. I do like how college football has remained a team sport with very few "personalities" rearing their heads.

As far as UW vs USC, it will be a while, if ever, before UW can attract the talent pool that USC gets handed to them. USC is about as close to a farm team for the NFL as you can get - that's tough for any school to compete with.

Yeah, and the weather and cheesecake-in-a-bikini girls wandering all over campus doesn't hurt SC when they're recruiting, either. ;\)

UW never got the athletes SC does, but once upon a time, we were able to compete with them anyway. But that seems like a loooooong time ago.

DanS-

Maybe you know someone that could help with recruiting at UW by pointing out how much better BC Bud is over mexican brown!

That might work.

But then they'd get all baked and they'd never show up for practice.

Sh!t, another plan foiled!
