Illinois AD Officially Has Higher Standards than UCLA AD
Attention, Dan Guerrero: this is how a real Athletic Director does it. An article on the ESPN Chicago website discussed Illinois AD Mike Thomas and his refusal this week to publicly give a vote of confidence to his men's basketball coach, Bruce Weber. You know what that likely means for Weber. It...

Bruin Bites: Football Notes, Kyle Anderson at Hoophall Classic, Even Calipari "Gets It" Re: UCLA Hoops, Osweiler to UCLA?
It's Wednesday, so we're halfway to the weekend, which will fortunately be free of the disaster that is UCLA football. That said, we'll be subjected to some torture with Ben Howland's dumpster fire squad in action against the Arizona schools, starting with the Wildcats on Thursday, followed by the...
Spaulding Roundup: Hiring New Coaches and Meeting With Old Ones
It's Thursday. Call the Chancellor's office. 310 825-2151. Replace Dan Guerrero. Day Two of the Jim Mora regime in Westwood was a lot like Day One, with Mora adding more new coaches to his staff. Mora then met with each member of the existing staff who was in Westwood, though no official...

Clueless Dan Guerrero and His Coaching Hire are Mocked Around the Country
First things first, I will support our student-athletes every day of the week. This isn't on them. I will root for Coach Mora to succeed. I understand his desire to take the job and compete. Also, if someone offered me $12 mil for a job, even if I knew I couldn't do it well, I'd still sign and...

UCLA Coaching Hot Stove: Rumors of a Jim Tressel Sellout In The Lull
So yesterday was a brief lull in the storm for U.C.L.A. football. Things were quiet around Spaulding with the players having this week off to concentrate on finals before resuming practice and preparations next week for the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl on December 31. Things were quiet from a news...
The Morning After, Part 13: Oregon
If you had told me at the beginning of the season we'd be playing Oregon for the Pac-12 Title and a trip to the Rose Bowl, I'd have been thrilled. I guess the path is as important as the destination, though, because this morning feels like relief, and resignation. Mike Johnson will assume the...
Chianti Dan Meets with the Chancellor to Discuss UCLA Football
