Facebook adds new photograph controls Users can now decide whether they want to be identified in pictures By Eliza Molk DAILY WILDCAT
You no longer have to worry about your best friend documenting your 21st birthday power hour online — Facebook will now let you choose if friends can link your name to a photo before its cyber-
space debut. Previously, friends could “tag,” or add your name and link to a photo of you on Facebook without your consent or knowledge. You could “untag,” or remove it, but only later after people may have seen the undesired photos. Now, all Facebook users can choose to pre-approve tagged photos before they are circulated. Regina Deil-Amen, an associate professor at the Center for
the Study of Higher Education at the UA, researched how social media can help different higher education student populations succeed, and how colleges can use social media for different purposes. She said the more professional people are with their social media, the more useful it can be for their lives. Deil-Amen explained her research showed that networking and who you know “really makes
a difference.” Social media, she said, can provide you with a wider network, more professional contacts and be used for purposes other than “pure entertainment.” “The people you interact with now could be future colleagues,” she said. “You don’t want your reputation to be in jeopardy by the way you’re using social media technology.” The new Facebook privacy feature will not affect whether or not
friends can put a photo of you online, just if there is a name or a “tag” attached to it with a link to your page. Pre-approving a photo tag was the most requested change to Facebook by users, according to Kate O’Neill, product manager for Facebook. Several students are pleased with the pre-approval setting because it means they have better control of FACEBOOK, 3
Folklorico club finds its groove on campus Traditional Mexican dance gives students opportunity to join in By Samantha Munsey DAILY WILDCAT
of food. Jillian Mackillop, a junior studying English and psychology, said the price of restaurants influences her decision more than health, and she often chooses fast food like Burger King because healthier options are too expensive. Mackillop also mentioned that there aren’t enough cheaper options on campus. “A lot of people do like fast food, and having it on campus encourages people to eat it when there aren’t a lot of other affordable options,” Zayon said. “When it comes down to it, a lot of us are broke college students — the less money to spend on food the better, but that means more people will be eating fast food.” Despite some students’ complaints about pricing, restaurants like Core maintain their popularity. According to Leigh Ann Cionni, Core student lead, the restaurant has
Students may have noticed an array of multicolored skirts and the sound of shoes striking the pavement of the stage by the Second Street Parking Garage. What may seem like a frantic form of clogging to the untrained eye is actually a traditional Mexican style of dance called folklorico, and this is the group where UA students can come and learn the steps. On Monday, Marcella Marin, a junior studying molecular biophysics and biochemistry, clapped out a beat, her bright red skirt sweeping the grass as a group of performers mimicked the rhythm of her movements. “The reason why we are out here is so we can use our shoes,” Marin said, pointing to a dancer wearing what almost looks like back boots. “You can scratch up a lot of floors.” Grupo Folklorico Miztontli has been involved in performing for the Tucson community and statewide since it began taking participants in 2007. “I wanted to create a positive dancing community,” said Denise Garcia, a range management graduate student who is also a founding member of the group. “Most of the people who join have never done this type of dancing in their life. So to see them proud and wanting to show what they have learned makes it great to be a part of the

Students seek healthy, affordable eating options By Alexandra Bortnik DAILY WILDCAT
With more than 35 campus restaurants to choose from, and more in the works, no student’s eating routine should be mundane. However, it doesn’t seem to be lack of options that students’ are displeased with, but rather the availability of healthy options, and for some, more affordable ones. For Rebecca Zayon, a marketing senior, healthiness is a greater factor than price when it comes to food. Zayon also emphasized the lack of healthy choices on campus. “Where, besides Core, can you get a good salad?” Zayon asked. In response to students’ concerns with healthy eating, Nicolas Adamakis, director of marketing for Student Affairs and assistant director of Arizona Student Unions, mentioned the newly added “healthy options” link on the union’s website. The link on each menu will show
students the five healthiest options available to them. “And we plan to roll out next spring a fully functional, interactive site where students can easily select any menu item being served in our restaurants and get complete nutritional information, online through the Arizona Mobile (smartphone application),” Adamakis said. For David Shapiro, a senior studying retailing and consumer sciences, the speed of service and health of the food are his two biggest factors when choosing where to eat on campus. “The only place that’s healthy and semi-quick is IQ Fresh, but that can get really hectic,” Shapiro said. “The healthy options on campus are not even close to being competitive with the unhealthy options.” Although some students feel there is a lack of healthy, affordable eating on campus, Adamakis said he is
focused on meeting students’ needs. “Our students are very aware of their food choices and are making better decisions about what they consume, so we always have to be more responsive to their needs, as our menus grow and are refreshed. It is a priority for us to have more healthy options available,” he said. Adamakis also pointed out that students who purchase one of the meal plans receive a financial boost since every meal they purchase is exempt from the state sales tax. However, for those clipping coupons and counting pennies, healthier options can sometimes still stand on the pricey end of the spectrum. In particular, Shapiro said the food marts on campus are over priced. “A lot of freshmen can’t drive to Safeway and their only option is to pay $8 for a box of cereal,” he said. James Clark, a creative writing senior, said he likes Panda Express because it’s cheap and you get a lot
Grant rooted in buffelgrass issue By Conrad Pursley DAILY WILDCAT
ZACHARY VITO/ DAILY WILDCAT
Xubin Zeng, professor of atmospheric sciences at the UA, studies local monsoon patterns in his office on Tuesday. Zeng is conducting a study to document weather trends in Arizona.
A new grant has given UA researchers the funds necessary to investigate the ecological effects of local invasive grasses. Processes and Patterns in the North American Monsoon Macrosystem is a $2.9 million grant and while reasearchers will not exclusively study invasive species, specifically grasses, in the region, they remain a key concern for the study. Invasive grasses tend to choke out native Sonoran plant life, and are spreading rapidly through the region.

These grasses are typically very dry and can easily catch fire from lightning and man-made accidents. In the case of buffelgrass, it can regrow after a severe burn, leaving desert areas more susceptible to future fires. Xubin Zeng, the director of the UA Climate Dynamics and Hydrometeorology Center, said the root of the invasive grass problem runs even deeper. Zeng said buffelgrass provides an intermediary that allows valley fires to spread onto the mountains. This could further alter the environment, since plants keep the soil intact and keeps topsoil from washing away

during rainstorms. This research will, among other things, try to estimate how these invasive grasses play off the monsoon. “What drives the strong monsoon activity during the summer is the intense heating of the Earth’s surface,” said Russell Monson, UA professor at the School of Natural Resources and the Environment, and principal investigator of the study. Monson went on to say the spread of these grasses has the potential to alter the surface temperature, and, in turn, affect summer storms.
If left to natural processes, this could result in a drastic change in plant life and the intensity of the monsoons. “People don’t like invasive grasses,” Zeng said. “That’s why we pull them out.” Michele MacMillan, a political science senior, and the administrative program director for UA Students for Sustainability, said she believes that many students aren’t educated about buffelgrass and the dangers it poses to the desert ecosystem. “Students that are aware of it are BUFFELGRASS, 3

No faculty buyouts this year for UA In a memo to the campus community, UA president Eugene Sander said the UA will not be extending its plan for voluntary retirement, a program which offered benefits to long-tenured UA employees if they would accept early retirement. In the memo, Sander said the plan was meant to be a one-time offer, though there had been discussions to bring it back for another year. In the memo, Sander wrote that approximately 20 percent of faculty members who fit the criteria for the plan (at least 65 years old, at least 10 years at the UA) applied last year.

She went on to say that she would bring up buffelgrass during group meetings and try to set up programs to educate students about it.

where they will perform a traditional Jalisco dance at 6 a.m. and 7 p.m. The group also participates in the UA’s Hispanic Heritage Halftime Show every year where they join other folklorico dancers
across Arizona and collaborate on a routine. “It’s exciting for us because we get to showcase high schoolers, and mariachi players and you can see more of a community,” Garcia said. The group welcomes participants throughout the year but stresses its need for male participants to help pair off their current female dancers. “We actually for the first time in a while have a boy for every girl in the group,” said Marin, president for the group. “But we want more dancers so it can continue to grow.”
to remove buffelgrass from your property, and sponsors events for clearing buffelgrass from the community both for personal safety and environmental issues. “Everyone needs to do their own part on their own land,” Cordova said. However, the extent to which invasive grasses can effect the environment and weather remains theoretical. Monson said the connection between how life forms relate with each other and the climate are very complex. Advanced computer models will be used to calculate the web of factors outside of grasses, like rising ocean temperatures, to ultimately decide on what may happen to regional life
forms and climate. “They allow us to probe a bunch of ‘what if’ scenarios, so we can strategically address how the future might play out,” Monson said. “And what decisions we might want to make for the future.” Both Zeng and Monson said that when the study is complete in 2016, it would paint a more complete picture of the environment and how to strategically apply resources in the future to handle invasive grasses. “I’ve been in Arizona for 18 years, because I love the environment here,” Zeng said. “If we’re going to have the same environment for the next 50 years we’ve got to have a better understanding of it.”

y the age of 20, most people have a general idea about what is considered acceptable behavior, and you can only hope they know the difference between childish remarks, and flat out bigotry. You can also conclude that at 20 years old, you know to mind your “p’s” and “q’s” when on a nationally televised awards show, that is most certainly being viewed by impressionable youths. At MTV’s Video Music Awards, all the biggest names were out in the spotlight. For the most part the VMAs were packed with well behaved adults. Even Britney Spears put her crazy down and accepted an award gracefully. There were however a few children in the audience, and I don’t mean Justin Bieber. New musician, Tyler, the Creator, and his carousel of clowns were out and about dropping the F-bomb on the “black carpet.” Tyler went on to win the Best New Artist award beating out Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean, Foster the People and Kreayshawn. If you are still scratching your head as to who this guy is, you’re not alone, I too was shouting at the TV, “Who is this guy?” Tyler, unknown to those with musical taste, has gained fame through his controversial lyrics and shock value antics. His album has offended large advocacy groups such as GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) and RVA (Rape Victim Advocates) with the amount of violent, sexist, and homophobic references he makes. Not only does his album use “faggot” 213 times, according to NME Magazine, Tyler defends himself with the argument that he is just a kid and that kids do not think about that stuff. Pardon me? You are a 20-year-old at the VMAs and you have a popular music video. You’re being televised to people across the world, yet you do not see the harm in using homophobic language because you are a “kid?” That’s pathetic. Acting like a child doesn’t automatically make you one, so kiss that Neverland dream goodbye. You’re an adult, act like one. Be accountable for your actions. Maybe it has a small amount to do with my bitterness toward him for nabbing the award Wiz Khalifa clearly deserved, but I don’t think it is acceptable for MTV to allow such an important award to go to someone so naive and insensitive. This would have been the appropriate time for Kanye to step in, interrupt and defeat Tyler. The amount of ignorance Tyler demonstrated at his VMA debut is scary. He gives a bad reputation to new, young artists. Due to MTV’s much too generous attitude toward Tyler and his award, he is starting to be seen as some sort of role model and music icon. In 2010, Justin Bieber received the Best New Artist VMA, which he highly deserved. If Justin Bieber’s album had a myriad of homophobic references and a ridiculous amount of emphasis on rape and violence against women, I would have said the same thing about him. Tyler the Creator, you do not deserve to be in the spotlight. Wash out your mouth with soap, rather than a cockroach, the next time you make an appearance at a nationally televised event. — Caroline Nachazel is a junior studying journalism and communications.

ASUA – powerful or pathetic? This or That is a new feature to the Daily Wildcat in which members of the Perspectives staff weigh in on a campus-related topic and give their final verdict between two options. The first topic is ASUA — powerful or pathetic. ASUA commands a budget of roughly $1 million and represents a student body of around 30,000 undergraduate students. Though often bashed for blunders and scandal, ASUA is still heralded for all its efforts to increase campus involvment and create a much more unique college campus experience.

rom poster painting, giving speeches, and deciding on what to improve at the UA, the Associated Students of the University of Arizona epitomizes what it means to be a Wildcat. ASUA has represented the student body since 1913, organizing events to make the UA more of a thriving community. For years, ASUA and their representatives have been unacknowledged and under appreciated for their work. There are those who find our student government to be pathetic but it is simply because they do not know what it takes to support our large student population. Together ASUA helps more than 500 clubs on campus and aids the largest student section in the Pac-12. Their officers are in charge of overseeing student funds and making sure all of the students are equally represented at the UA. Throughout the year, ASUA makes decisions that ultimately benefit our school, and directly impact the student body. Even though they don’t publicize every action and decision they make, it doesn’t mean they are not working to improve higher education at the UA. ASUA speaks on behalf of all students and those words are powerful in their own right.

SUA is like the freshmen class: full of bright people, with bright futures and idealistic natures. However, like the freshmen, members of ASUA aren’t quite sure of all the ins and outs of college and are out of touch with the majority of students. ASUA is a powerful entity and has the ability to help thousands of students. But often I’m shocked at the senate proposals and projects, and how few of them are of real benefit to students today. Senators say things like, “I want to sell T-shirts to benefit these children!” Hello! We’re college students. We’re broke, constantly being required to buy things or pay fees, and are more interested in ASUA benefiting us instead of some offcampus organization. Also, in my time as a news reporter, some of the dumbest statements I’ve heard have come from people in that office. One ASUA member said, “Yeah, we get a stipend but we pretty much just use them to buy our polos and then fro yo after meetings.” Now every time I see that cardinal red polo I just think, “what a waste of money.” ASUA has the power, they just need to use it.

know a little something about being in student government. I was an avid member on both my elementary and junior high schools’ student councils. If ASUA is anything like my two experiences, they do some work, but it’s really more of a social activity that looks nice on the resume. The majority of our campus doesn’t pay attention to them. Therefore, ASUA might not have power with the students, but they certainly have power behind the scenes. I know of a past ASUA president who would get free tickets to both football and basketball games. Hell, they even flew him and

ASUA also gives students the opportunity to get involved on campus in leadership opportunities through programs like SeniorCats, Freshman Class Council, and ASUA Senate and executive positions. ASUA is also responsible for all official clubs on campus. All of these programs are designed to make students succeed during their undergraduate careers.

nyone who spends time on campus should take a moment to acknowledge ASUA. Without ASUA, we wouldn’t have Safe Ride, which provides students with a safer means of transportation around the campus area after dark. Our lovely campus has numerous clubs that cover just about every niche of student interest. Whether you’re looking for something related to your field of study, a hobby, or you’re just trying to meet new people, there are clubs available to you and these are thanks to ASUA in one way or another. ASUA is there to help clubs and make sure they have the resources they need. The free legal services ASUA provides to UA students, gives students a chance to get advice on debt difficulties, problems with their landlord, auto accidents and other things that plague many college students. Every year, ASUA runs Spring Fling, which is organized and operated by students and has been going on for decades. Thousands of people attend the carnival every year to enjoy the festivities. The event also helps to raise funds for UA clubs and organizations. So the next time you’re enjoying an event on the UA Mall, be grateful that our school has such a dedicated group of people who want to make campus a place for so much more than academics.

POLICE BEAT By Rebecca Rillos DAILY WILDCAT
Student sips and runs at Highland Market A University of Arizona Police Department officer noticed a man come out of Highland Market and stagger and sway as he walked down the sidewalk at 3:30 a.m. on Monday. The officer approached the man to conduct a welfare check. The man stopped and looked at the officer without speaking. When the officer asked him for identification, the man yelled “What? Oh, you’re a cop,” and began running toward Likins Hall. The officer followed the man on his bike, shouting for him to stop, and the man finally stopped running near Posada San Pedro Residence Hall. The officer told him to get on the ground and the man told him, “OK, I’m too tired to keep going.” The man started crying and said, “I’m sorry I was stupid,” repeatedly. The man said he didn’t have any identification but that his last name was Likins. The officer pointed out that his name was the same as the new residence hall, and the man said again that his name was Likins. The officer asked for his driver’s license and the man gave him his wallet. The wallet contained two California driver’s licenses with the same last name, but it was not Likins. The officer read the man his rights and the man said he would answer any questions. He told the officer he had a beer and some shots earlier that evening. The man said did not know where he got the alcohol and told the officer, “I was somewhere, I don’t know where. The drinks just showed up and I don’t know from where.” The officer asked the man about the other driver’s license with his last name. The man said it belonged to his older brother but would not answer to whether or not he used it to buy alcohol. The man was cited for minor in possession and was cared for by paramedics. After treatment, the man was released into the care of his resident assistant.
Deliver us from graffiti A UAPD officer was on patrol at 11 p.m. on Monday when he noticed graffiti painted onto a concrete pillar on the first level of Tyndall Avenue Parking Garage. A 36-inch, stencil-type figure of a kneeling person was painted in white on the concrete. The words “forgive me” had been written above the person with “give us our daily bread” written below it. The officer noted that the graffiti was painted crudely and seemed amateurish in style. The officer photographed the area and requested that Facilities Management remove the graffiti. There are no suspects or witnesses at this time.
Wanton wanderer warrants wakening A UAPD officer responded to a call in reference to disorderly conduct in the Main Library at 12 p.m. on Monday. The officer caught up with the man in question who identified himself with an Arizona identification card. The man said library staff had approached him while he was awake and was told to leave the library. The man said he was confused as to why he was singled out and he left, annoyed. The officer explained to the man that library staff had asked the man to leave because he was sleeping in the library. “Yeah, I was asleep when they woke me up,” the man said. A student in the library told police that the man approached him, waving his fists and attempted to hit him. The student he said did not understand why the man was yelling at him.

Safety Flowers ready to bloom By Mike Schmitz Daily Wildcat
After a season-long learning curve, the light bulb has finally come on for sophomore safety Marquis Flowers heading into his first career start as a Wildcat. “I feel like I’m ready now,” Flowers said. “It was a humbling experience just coming in off of all the hype and then taking a back seat. I learned a lot though. This year I’m better, I’m more mature and I’m thankful for what happened last year.” Flowers came to the UA last season as the Wildcats’ prized recruit. According to Rivals.com, he is the No. 1 high school player in Arizona, and a trip to the U.S. Army AllAmerican game backed up that ranking. At 6-foot-3, 220 pounds, the Millennium High School standout looked the part of a collegiate stud. But by week three against Iowa, Flowers found himself on the sideline, where outside of special teams duty, he would stay for the remainder of the season. While Arizona tried him at both safety and nickelback, the
transition from high school to college was too much to overcome for the freshman. “You can’t compare high school to college. It’s such a different level of speed, size, strength,” said head coach Mike Stoops. “That makes it really difficult for even the best of them. Those guys can do anything in high school but there’s guys bigger, stronger and faster than them. “You’ve got to learn the game a different way.” Flowers had all the tools to become a starter and impact player for the Wildcats, but the game hadn’t clicked yet for him. Although he wouldn’t stand out among a crowd of NFL safeties, expectations were too great too soon for the Arizona native, and he finished the season with only 11 tackles, mostly all on special teams. “He was only 18 coming in, but he looks like an NFL player so you kind of expect him to play the way he looks even though you’re not expecting that same thing from other players his age,” said secondary coach Ryan Walters. “I

sometimes probably was a little hard on him, but you know, he needed it and he’s improving a lot.” According to Flowers, that learning curve is coming to an end. Stoops said it took Flowers all of last year and spring to get comfortable, but
it’s starting to pay dividends. “Marquis has played well. He gets better and better, and I think every time he steps on the field he’s going to get better,” Stoops said. “He’s become very comfortable in what he’s doing. He’s got big play ability. “He’s a big rangy guy, can run and he likes to hit so I’m really pleased with his growth as a player and as a person. He’s really embraced that role and is starting to excel.” Walters reiterated Stoops’ assessment and said he really saw the light bulb go on during the Wildcats’ second scrimmage of fall camp. According to Walters, Flowers was no longer thinking on the field but reacting on instincts. “That’s what we need,” Walters said. “We need him to play fast and physical and he’s definitely capable of doing that and it’s starting to show up in practice.” It might have come a year later than expected, but Flowers is out to prove that 2010 was nothing more than a learning experience. “I just want to be physical,
“I think we’re probably one of the best in the country. I think that’s the expectations we want and we’re going to come out and show it come Saturday.” — Marquis Flowers on Arizona’s secondary versatile; I want to be all that,” Flowers said. “I want to help my team out. I want to be vocal. I just want to give my teammates trust. I just want to go out there, play hard, play fast and everything will fall in place.” Although Saturday marks the end of Flowers’ freshman-to-sophomore transition period, it’s the beginning of what is expected to be a long and successful career as a Wildcats safety. “I expect him to have a breakout year,” Walters said. “The sky is the limit for Marquis.”
Guessing game: The art of penalty kicks
Mike Christy/ Daily Wildcat Gordon bates/ Daily Wildcat
Goalkeeper Ashley Jett boots the ball in the Arizona soccer team’s 1-0 loss to South Carolina on Friday. Arizona is now 0-3 on the year following a couple of painful losses, one of which came on a penalty kick score by San Diego State.
By Kevin Nadakal Daily Wildcat
Perhaps one of the more pressure-packed moments in sports is soccer’s penalty kick, taken in the case of a foul in the penalty box or if regulation ends in a tie. While the kicker is in control of the ball, and thus has the advantage because they can choose where to put it, the goalkeeper has one simple choice — read and react as quickly as possible. “(The advantage) definitely goes to the kicker,” said UA head coach Lisa Oyen. “The goalkeeper just kind of has to make a guess and try and make the save.” Arizona’s soccer team knows it best. The Wildcats experienced penalty kicks in their season opener against San Diego State that left a bad taste in their mouth. The Aztecs scored on a penalty kick in the 68th minute after an infraction in the penalty box, and the Wildcats ended up losing that game 1-0. Wildcat goalkeeper Ashley Jett said she looks at the kicker’s hips as she tries to determine the direction she will be lunging. “If their (hips) are open, they are usually going to kick to the right if they’re right-footed,” Jett said. “If they are closed
and you see their leg swinging back, then they are usually going to go to the left.” Although Jett does have a strategy, Oyen said that it’s really a guess. Usually, the goalie will tend to go to whatever side they feel most comfortable. Jett has the most experience at goal for the Wildcats, making 18 starts last season and tallying a conferenceleading 104 saves. In three games this season, Jett has given up two goals in regulation, one in overtime, and another off of a penalty kick. In that span she has made 11 saves, and with each of those saves comes a shift in momentum. “It’s huge,” Jett said of game-changing blocks. “If you block one out of five that’s great, though we’re not really expected to block any.” Goalkeepers have been known to go to extremes to break the psyche of the kicker, throwing them off their game before their shots goes into motion. YouTube highlights include goalies doing cartwheels in the goal and coming out of the net, in front of the kicker. “I don’t see that benefiting anything,” Jett said. “It doesn’t let me concentrate on what I’m trying to do, and it doesn’t let me try and read their body rhythms, so I personally don’t.”
Pac-12 football
South Division roundup By Dan Kohler Daily Wildcat
ASU’s Burfict balances tenacity, emotion Coming into the 2011 campaign, the Arizona State Sun Devils are one of the favorite’s to win the Pac12 South, and with potential AllAmerican in Vontaze Burfict on their squad the Sun Devils are looking primed to pull it off. Burfict’s gridiron tenacity has caused some questionable hits that have been met with some disdain by opposing players and coaches, but head coach Dennis Erickson says that Burfict has been working on it. “He’s gotta put everything together, physically, mentally and emotionally,” Erickson said in the weekly
Pac-12 conference call. “If he can games these last few years. That lets do that, he can be one of the better you kind of practice and get some players that I’ve ever coached.” kinks out, and then opening day still has some excitement, but it’s not Embree excited for quite like this.”
Colorado debut
True fact: The Colorado Buffaloes have lost their last 18 games away from Boulder, Colo., and are pegged on many lists to finish at the bottom of the Pac-12 South. However, with new head coach Jon Embree’s fresh system in place, CU might surprise a few critics. For Embree, who played at Colorado before playing in the NFL, his head coaching debut is going to be emotional. “There’s definitely a lot more excitement for me this year,” Embree said in the conference call. “I’ve been used to having preseason
UCLA quarterback situation unanswered For the past two seasons, UCLA quarterbacks Kevin Prince and Richard Brehaut have been fighting for the starting job, with Prince getting the nod both times. However, in the final week before the regular season begins, head coach Rick Neuheisel has yet to make his decision. “Both have experience, and both have played very well in Pac-12, A9
Receiver Richard Morrison’s breakout game came in the Wildcats’ 2010 Valero Alamo Bowl game on Dec. 30, 2010.
Consistency is the key for WR Morrison Former quarterback growing in new role By Alex Williams Daily Wildcat
Richard Morrison just wants one thing when he’s on a football field — get the ball into his hands and do it any way possible. That’s why he was all ears when coaches wanted to move the sophomore to receiver after playing quarterback in high school and during his first redshirt year at Arizona. “It was a shocker, but I kind of figured it would come because I’m short and I’m fast,” Morrison said of the position change. So far, Morrison has made the most of the move. Although he played sparingly during his redshirt freshman season, he was able to rack up 188 yards on 19 catches. Morrison also played better as the season grew older, catching six passes for 66 yards in the Valero Alamo Bowl. But he’s struggled with consistency on the field, something that can’t happen if he expects to be a key player in the Arizona offense. “He needs to be a more consistent player for us,” head coach Mike Stoops said. “Also a better blocker, but he’s getting better.” However inconsistent he’s been, Morrison’s playmaking ability gives coaches a reason to get him on the field. Standing at only 6-foot, Morrison isn’t the same physical presence that stands out on the field like 6-foot-4 athletes Dan Buckner or Juron Criner.
But he’s adapted his style of play to fit his body type, describing himself as a “quick and elusive” runner, something receivers coach Dave Nichol thinks can turn Morrison into a dynamic player. “He’s just got to put it all together,” Nichol said. And while it can sometimes be tough for a playmaker to step out of the quarterback position and the spotlight that comes with it, Morrison hasn’t had any second thoughts about the position change. “I just want to get on the field,” Morrison said. “I haven’t been thinking about quarterback anymore; just concentrating on wide receiver.” His progress on the field shows that he’s focused on making that transition. Morrison had minimal experience at receiver in high school, and although he’s been inconsistent, he is light-years ahead of where he was immediately following the position switch. “He has a little bit more ways to go, but he’s trying real hard and that’s a big part of it,” Nichol said. “He gets in the way of himself sometimes, but he’s come along pretty good.” Morrison will also get a chance to shine on special teams, where the Arizona depth chart lists him as the starting punt returner along with David Douglas. That will give Morrison a chance to make game-breaking plays, something a player he models his game after excels at. “I’m trying to be like the next Devin Hester,” Morrison said. “It’s all about getting the ball.”

Brewers fall, Mariners walk off Mcclatchy tribune
Cardinals rout Brewers MILWAUKEE — It was this kind of night for the Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers on the brightest stage in the goofy-foot National League Central: The leadoff batter in both the top and bottom of the first inning greeted the respective starting pitchers, Randy Wolf and Jake Westbrook, with home runs. Less than 60 feet from a thirdinning inside-the-park home run, Brewers left fielder Ryan Braun tripped, fell, attempted to rise and fell again before getting tagged out in a brief rundown. There was more — much more — in a free-for-all that the Cardinals ultimately claimed, 8-3, before a crowd of 38,073 on Wednesday night. A relative lightning bolt, Westbrook’s fourth-inning grand slam outshone his pitching as centerpiece of a game that chipped away a little of the Brewers’ aura of invulnerability at Miller Park. “It’s a little warm,� quipped manager Tony La Russa, “but the hotness is still over there.� After five innings, the Cardinals’ bullpen provided order to a game that often crossed the line separat-
ing strange from madcap. The Cardinals exited with their fifth win in six games. To win with a pitcher’s grand slam one night after winning without scoring an earned run changed the vibe in a previously sullen clubhouse. “It’s pretty special,� Westbrook said. “Just to go back and say you hit a grand slam in the big leagues is a lot of fun.� The Cardinals finished a 15-13 August by becoming only the second team this season to hand the Brewers back-to-back home losses. With 26 games remaining, consecutive wins have returned the Cardinals to 8 1/2 games behind the Brewers. No one is sure where this may lead. But the last 48 hours have allowed a fleeting sense of hope. Completing a three-game sweep this afternoon would create momentum missing for more than a month. “I think it’s a real good example of how tough this club is,� La Russa said. “We’ve had some stuff go against us, some of it our own making, but I never saw the club come out the next day and give in. I think we did a good job this month because it was discouraging. Milwaukee wouldn’t lose and we were mugging games.�

camp, and when you get that luxury, I didn’t want to derail any of their progress to tell them that they were number 2,� Neuheisel said in the conference call. “I wanted them to continue to fight, continue to compete, and continue to improve, and I’ve gotten that out of them. I feel like both are ready to play and that’s a luxury.�
Angels done in by a Carp shot SEATTLE — It was like throwing a drowning man a life vest — filled with lead weights. Angels right-hander Dan Haren outpitched Felix Hernandez for seven innings but left with two outs in the eighth. He could only watch as Scott Downs, an island of reliability in the Angels’ unreliable relief corps, left a fastball over the heart of the plate to Mike Carp who drilled it off the centerfield wall for a two-run double that gave the Mariners a 2-1 victory over the Angels Wednesday night. With the loss, the Angels wasted an opportunity to shave a game off the Rangers’ lead in the AL West. The Rangers also lost Wednesday night, 4-1 to the Rays, and remain 3 ½ games up on the Angels. “We saw that. We saw that they lost,â€? Angels DH Bobby Abreu said. “We have to take advantage of that. Find a way to do it. But we couldn’t get it done tonight.â€? In the process, they added to a season-long legacy of late losses. Wednesday was the Angels’ league-leading 22nd blown save, their 25th one-run defeat and the 18th time this season they have lost after being tied or holding the lead through seven innings.
USC’s Kiffin believes QB position changing
Jeff Sainlar/Milwaukee Journal Sentinel/MCT
Corey Hart of the Milwaukee Brewers hits a homer in the first inning against the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday in Milwaukee, Wis.
It was the second time in this series Carp had gutted an Angels reliever. His two-run home run off Hisanori Takahashi in the eighth inning of a tie game on Monday sent the Angels to another defeat. “There’s a lot of numbers that are

negative. But this isn’t the time for that,� Angels catcher Jeff Mathis said. “Those guys (in the bullpen) helped get us here. Yeah, they’ve had some tough little stretches but everybody does. It’s going down to the wire now. We’re going to need those guys.�
their first season in the Pac-12, and with their program already instilled as a perennial BCS buster, it’ll be interesting to see what they can do in an automatic qualifying conference. “There’s been a lot of anticipation this offseason,� head coach Kyle Whittingham said in the media call. “I guess you could say that it’s the most anticipated upcoming Utah season in history with the change of conference affiliation and gaining BCS status and everything that comes with that.�

Which, if you think about it too long, is only going to make your head hurt. Ten days after that bit of theater aired, I found myself strolling the Playboy Mansion grounds in Los Angeles’ Holmby Hills — talk about words I never expected to write — trying to figure out why so many have been intrigued for so long by a place that looks like a cross between a children’s zoo and the setting for a slightly upscale miniature golf course.

Public health freshman all about boba So where are you headed to? Going to grab some lunch. Anywhere special? Probably just the union. Got a favorite place? The Cellar (Bistro) is so good. I didn’t even know they had boba tea.

Never had it. Any good? It was so funny, last night I was drinking one and you suck up the little tapioca parts, it’s pretty good. I didn’t realize they had it here though.
Besides the Cellar, what are you headed to today? Just class. I only have one really big class though. Oh what? Just nutrition. It’s got 500 people. Well then I’ll let you get to lunch. All this nutrition talk is making me hungry. (Laughs) Thanks.
