Bleich to UCLA

They offered JUCO OT Badara Traore early in May so I would think they take him if he wants N. They will probably finish out with Stratford would be my guess.
I think if Walker stays at OT, that's 5 young bodies at that position in the last couple classes.
I guess distance from home wasn't a factor to him or his family.
UCLA where talent goes to wallow in mediocrity.
VERY true. That area of L.A. is really, really nice.
I think the long-running joke in L.A. is that the kids from the projects and rougher areas go up to Westwood to go to college at the cheap school and get to live in that really nice area, and the rich white kids get to go down to the 'hood to attend USC.
Everyone knows that Westwood is much closer to Pennsylvania than Nebraska is.
I don't know what particular ailment the father has, but assuming the worst case he's dying, my old man would have told me to skip town and never look back.
Something along the lines of, you aren't going to get anywhere in life crying over my grave kind of a deal.
Alternatively assuming its a longer term, survivable ailment, there's probably some consideration there to how much time you can spend around dad. Dad still may not want you to alter your life choices.
And play in front of a half-full stadium of indifferent students that were bussed 15 miles from campus.
