    Just before the start of this college basketball season, UCLA received a letter of inquiry from the NCAA, seeking information about possible illegal contact between a recruit and a person representing the interests of the university. The recruit was Kevin Love, now the Bruins' star freshman center. The person representing the interests of the university was John Wooden. The NCAA has not disclosed who made the complaint. Love and his family visited Wooden during his recruiting trip. They had a nice chat, Wooden teased the Loves' young daughter, Emily, for being so quiet, and a nice time was had by all.

    I wonder if John Wooden thought he'd be that involved in UCLA Basketball in 2008 when he's 97. Wow

    Come meet the legend of the UCLA program on your recruiting trip...how exactly is that illegal?

    Oh wait, this is the NCAA where the rules of logic and common sense have ceased to apply.

    Man this straight up BS... if Kevin Love ends up with any sort or backlash at all he should sue... The NCAA can straight up go **** themselves
