[edit] Dissent

As a head coach of a major college football team, Karl Dorrell will in his current position always have fans and critics. Critics find fault with his not having a signature win and no victories over crosstown rival USC (until 2006). Fans may well remember 2006 as their favorite season of all time. Free links to fan sites, discussion groups, and blogs will get removed. When Karl's career is over at UCLA, this article should neutrally reflect his accomplishments. Even John Wooden has been attacked by critics, but his records stand.

Looking at the Wikipedia articles for living public figures that are subject to the most criticism in the English-speaking world, George W. Bush and Tony Blair, both have criticism subsections in their articles. Perhaps the article Criticism of Karl Dorrell could be created and linked from a subsection. Even then, in the criticism of George W. Bush there are only links to articles with real tangible points. There are no links to sites selling T-shirts trying to make a quick buck on getting someone fired from their job. Group29 15:36, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Also, I do not know about heavily favored over Washington, as the line was running 3 on sports books sites. Group29 22:57, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
