Am I pleased with how things are going?  No.  But I have to have faith.  The alternative is just too depressing.

FWIW, UCLA opponents so far (26-3):

Cincinnati 6-0 ranked 25 
Oklahoma 5-1 ranked 11 
Fresno State 5-1 unranked 
Colorado 5-0 ranked 19 
Washington 5-1 ranked 7

As of 10/8/18

Also these teams have a combined +585 point differential.

I think we get a win on Saturday @ Cal.

Bizarre that your SOS rating is so low given those records.  Are these teams just beating up on bad teams?

Whats the name of the coordinator who became coach at Oregon after Chip left? I think it was Helfrich? He may have been the brains of the operation all along. I think he was doing color commentary on some cable channel last season.

If you saw him on some cable channel a year ago, that pokes a hole in your “brains of the operation” theory.

Keep your chin up.  We've been there.  "Blind faith" is how I tolerated year 2 and 3 of Charlie Strong football.  I hope your version ends up better than ours did.

I have to believe he is.  There is no shortage of them.

The Bruins spent $997,000 on meals in FY17 under Mora. In the first full year under Kelly (FY19), they spent $5.4 million.

what in the fuck are they eating?

$5.4 million / 365 = $14800 a damn day / 120 players = $123 per player / 3 meals = $41 dollars per meal per player per day

under Mora it was $22 dollars a day or $7 per meal

Mora made sure the athletes were the only ones in the dinning hall after the restrictions were lifted in 2014 (no longer just 3 meals). Chip allows the athletes to take food out to the dorm for all their buddies. Maybe it is a source of income?

Hmm, either he upgraded from burnt toast and runny eggs, or that's some creative accounting to cover monies spent in not so legitimate ways.

I’d say it was to hide bags of cash, but a quick look at their recruiting class says that can’t be the reason.

He's big on sports nutrition, and specific diets. Not sure $5.4MM worth though.

Doesn't sound too crazy especially if nutritionists salaries are mixed into that number.

Exactly. You would need to see how both of those numbers are calculated as well. Maybe Mora was total food cost and kelly is total spend on staff, facilities, and food.

No it doesn’t make sense.  There’s some discussion that there are other expenses included here that weren’t included in prior calls.  Mora had a pretty comprehensive meal program.

No where in any of this does it say they don’t trust Kelly.  And he’s trying to implement the requests.  Kinda sensationalist.

 

I for one am shocked that such a fine paper that is the LA times would ever sensationalize or slant anything

 

 

 

The shit paper LA times is basically the CR of all papers and their journalist are CR regulars

Under Armour has informed University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) that it wants to terminate a $280 million deal that it signed with the school in 2016, the Los Angeles Times reported on Saturday.

“We are exploring all of our options to resist Under Armour’s actions and will share more information as we can. We want to reassure you that UCLA Athletics remains committed to providing our hard-working staff and student-athletes with the footwear, apparel and equipment needed to train and compete at the highest level,” the report said, citing a letter by Dan Guerrero, the school’s outgoing athletic director.

Video of DTR throwing this summer.  OBJ shows up on day 5.  Unreal casual one-handed catch around the 6:40 mark.  Then Dwayne Haskins showed up.  Brady used to (still does I think) show up quite often.  DTR looks like he's start to develop more of a man body.  Maybe this is the year he breaks through?  Oh wait, there won't be a season, and then he'll leave early and have his breakout in the NFL.  That would be our program in a nutshell.

Chip Kelly realy is a POS.  California's hightest-paid employee and he "quiet quit" on his job.

Wow, that writer comes off as a whiny bitch. I hate to see Kelly leave ucla for obvious reasons, but the guy realized he didn’t want to be a Head Coach anymore. Playing the “poor assistants out of a job” card is pretty disingenuous. Had he been fired, they would still be out of a job.

It's possible. He picked up a lot of offers. His top four ended up being UCLA, Nebraska, Washington and Oregon.

The guy could have resigned at any time to go do something different. He stayed because he didn't want to leave a $6m/year job. The timing of when he left really put UCLA in a shit situation.

He does clearly state the issue in the article - had he left earlier, his former coaching staff would have had the opportunity to search for jobs during a window where there were plenty of openings. This article does not lay enough blame on the UCLA athletic department for its role in this clown show, but Chip Kelly behaved like a narcissistic dirtbag just as he did for his whole tenure.

He beat USC 3 times...

That had more to do with the horrific state of the program more so than Kelly’s coaching prowess
