We are proud of those youth who excel in school and life as they pursue their sports careers.
On the other side of things, I personally hope UCLA and the various coaching staffs take care of all of the students admitted for their athletic talents, while also making the University of California a more accessible education institution for all of its citizens regardless of socioeconomic background. I have added a bit of critical commentary because like can be fun but it is not a game!

Things that keep me OPTIMISTIC in a 'world' so...??? I am not sure that what it is "so"?! Yet I know babies, puppies of course, my family members when they are happy, folks I do not know who are friendly and have 'good energy', and much more along with most sports but specifically hoops (aka basketball) and highlights are the best but the commentary on this one is entertaining as well...
