Cowan and a 6th year
I know there are a lot of questions about Patrick Cowan and getting a sixth year of eligibility. I checked with UCLA, and was told the criteria for gaining a sixth year is missing two seasons beyond a player’s control. There was no medical issue when he red-shirted as a freshman.
That said, UCLA and Cowan may still explore a sixth year, since it cannot hurt to at least check.

About Inside UCLA
This is Brian Dohn's sixth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.
Now would be a good time for Cowan to become a Mormon and go on a 2 year mission so as to retain his final year of eligibility. I vote he goes to a far away place for his mission, like say, Norm Chow's living room.
