Latest KD Numbers: The Worst Bruin FB Coach Since WW2

Dump Dorrell has the updated numbers. Despite the win over Southern Cal, Dorrell's record is still abominable:

1. 1-3 against Southern Cal.
2. No Pac-10 championships.
3. No BCS bowl games.
4. 1-3 in bowl games (all minor bowl games)[BN]
5. 1-10 on the road against teams with a winning record.
6. Worst starting 3- AND 4- year record of any UCLA football coach since WW2, including Bob Toledo who was fired.
7. Worse winning percentage than Bob Toledo, who was fired.
8. 3-11 against ranked teams.
9. 2-7 against top 10 teams.
10. Only 6 conference wins against teams who finished over .500.
11. 19-14 against Pac-10 teams.
12. 8-17 against teams with a winning record.
13. 10 losses to unranked teams.
14. He has a losing record after October, 6-12.
15. Embarrassing losses to Wyoming, Fresno State, Arizona, Southern Cal, Florida State [Ed.].
16. Revolving door for assistant coaches.
17. 80% of Bruins fans polled on Bruinsnation.com disapprove of the job KD is doing.
Of course, we are now updating number 16 with a fresh end of the season poll. The loss to the washed up Seminoles was embarrassing in our book.

As DD notes today, KD now is officially the worst UCLA head football coach since WW2 in terms of his record in his first four years.

Again, if you have not signed the petition, make sure you sign it and share it with anyone you know who loves Bruin football.

Oh, and keep this kind of good stuff coming. Considering how tragicomic the state of Bruin football is under Dorrell, we are going to need our share of humor to get through what it looks like at least one more year of Karl Dorrell.

GO BRUINS.

The Petition is back!!
That's all I cared about after the loss.  This petition is back again, after a 3 week layoff from our dilusional win over SC.  This is a great day!!  

KD does not deserve to be head coach of this team.  Not after that horrible portrayal as a "Coach".  

Do this for the program Guerrero, help this program NOW!!

sign it please!
everyone should sign it.

its just sad to think that if he keeps firing his assistants that "failed to perform" he will eventually have a decent set of assistant coaches that he can hide behind.  if that's the case, we might be stuck with this guy for a while...

2-7
is skewed too. that 10th ranked cal team maurice drew beat was so overrated and ended with 4 losses.

we really need to fire this guy. how did we hire howland and this joker the same year...?

Yes STT, 3-8 is the new 1-6
You are completely right...  as I've said before the stat against ranked teams should be how they finish the season, not the rank when you play them.  I think that would leave out the 2005 win over Oklahoma as well.

1-3 in bowl games!
don't forget we are 1-3 in bowl games with two losses to non-bcs schools and a loss to an 8th place ACC team! are you kidding me! 1-3 in bowl games, with a win over perennial doormat, northwestern.

what a coach should be
What is needed  is a coach willing to take chances to win at all costs not KD. Look at last nighs Tostitos Bowl Boise State coach Chris Petersen, who remains undefeated as a head coach is willing to let it all hang out and go for W's.
