Couple of Thoughts On YouTubing/UCLA FB (Athletics)

Let me go meta in terms of new media items and UCLA athletics. Both of them have to do with YouTubing.

I was surfing around last around YouTube and stumbled into this clip from UCLA-Michigan game from 1989:

I remember watching that game on ABC. It wasn’t fun. It was a brutal season following Aikman’s exit from UCLA.

Anyway, I am wondering if there are any Bruin fans out there who can match those lowlights by uploading the highlights from the 2000 Michigan-UCLA game from the Rose Bowl?

Here are few more for a YouTube wish list:

  • Nebraska-UCLA 1988
  • UCLA-Washington 1990
  • UCLA-Southern Cal 1993
  • Tennessee-UCLA 1994
  • Alabama-UCLA 2000
  • UCLA-Alabama 2001
  • UCLA-Ohio State 2001

Of course would love to see the highlights from the 83 and 84 Rose Bowls and the Fiesta Bowl from 1984.

Perhaps the Athletic Department can step up here and create a vault of UCLA highlights in an official UCLA YouTube Channel?

For example, Cal’s AD has already set up their official youtube channel.

Why can’t UCLA do the same?

Thoughts?

GO BRUINS.

This is a great post with a great point

I’ve often wondered if the leaders in the Morgan Center are allergic to basic Public Relations principles. Of course, many of my complaints have been rectified slowly after the arrival of Dan Guerrero.

This sounds like a good idea for a letter writing campaign. hmmm?

The thing with Cal

is that the whole university is represented on their UCB channel: http://youtube.com/ucberkeley. Athletics is a branch off of it; I think it’s a great way to promote and recruit students to go there using the internets. We could set up a youtube channel with our program, but it’s an entirely different question to get something encompassing the university as a whole. Same thing with $C… http://www.youtube.com/usc.

we have a UCLA Newsroom channel

Here it is:

Seems it should be a no brainer for our athletic department.

Ugh...

never mind about my previous post…haha. It would’ve been so much easier if it was youtube.com/ucla.

GO BRUINS!

I'd love to see...

Nebraska-UCLA 1988

It was the first UCLA game for Ajax.

It was the first year

I really started caring about college football and was the first game I watched wearing a UCLA tshirt.

I remember that game well...

There were SO many loud and intimidating people wearing red, and before the game it seemed they outnumbered the home fans. The Rose Bowl was packed. Matt Darby’s hit in the first quarter set the tone. Great night.

Maybe we should set up our own?

I’m not a YouTube expert, just throwing the idea out there, and don’t know exactly how it would work.

Add to the mix

Apparently, Fox has called it quits on Bruin Rewind for next year. A damn shame as the sideline/locker room stuff truly made it a one of a kind look into our Bruins.
