Patrick Mahomes was a three star recruit. So was Travis Kelce ! UCLA best linebacker and leader and tackles for the Big Ten was a walk on. UCLA shouldn’t want players who don’t want to be there. Donte Moore was a one year rental and he jumped. We brought in 17 freshman and a few prefer walk on. on the other hand, Chip Kelly brought in 10 freshman and left right before the season started. A first year offense that was put in late in spring and actually started to hit his stride towards the end of the season. I might be outlier, but I love this class and it gives me hope to the future that we will build a culture. Also, if you look closely at the schools is showing where UCLA is establishing pipelines for the future. Unfortunately, we don’t have pipelines at places like Bosco, Mater Dei And those other powerhouse schools, but we’re building and going in the right direction !

Why not talk about Dermaricus Davis (top 8 qb in 2024 in on3 rankings). Also why not go after Kaiden Salter, Jackson Arnold, or Connor Weigman all much better options than miller moss imo

Coach EB is trying to go back in the NFL and madden was unsure who was going to be the new OC and how the new offense is going to fit him
@fmfm626217 күн бұрын
UCLA knew who they were hiring for OC. Maybe they changed their mind about this kid and didn't want to show their hand as Madden and his family were wishy washy and has issues committing to anything.

Nobody wanted to deal with his dad. It will be fine. We need more linemen. Remember the player limits start this year. 105 players max. This will be the biggest portal year ever. Nebraska alone is losing 30-40 players as a NCAA mandate. The top players will leave for cash, the rest will leave for opportunity, others have to leave due to the rules. Trust the process

EB is a top notch OCoordinator with NFL experience. That alone should warrant recruits wanting to come here. The fact is that if UCLA doesn't pay that NIL money players are going to go elsewhere. I mean the sad part is players would rather go to the Midwest than play in Westwood. LOL SMH UCLA is a pathetic and perennial football loser. We will continue to see 3-4 win seasons and no homefield advantage. There's no excitement, poor recruiting, and a mismanagement of the football program that is not only coaching but management. Terrible just absolutely awful. So much talent in California and UCLA can't field a football squad. We're in the hotbed of football QB's and this staff cannot recruit 1!!! Think about that for a second. Think about all the QBs in our local high schools.

Arkansas can offer more money and lower admissions standards. College football has been a professional league for some time. NIL removes all pretense. To bring the NIL and portal chaos under control, the NCAA is going to have to come up with player contracts, similar to the NFL.
