Bruin Bites: Howland's Toast and Chianti Dan Must Go Edition
It's Sunday evening, which sadly means a return to work tomorrow, which be exacerbated by the Niners' heart-breaking loss to Eli Manning's Giants in OT (BTW, thanks for blowing it Kyle Williams). Fortunately, the return to work also means we're as far away from Ben Howland's dumpster fire brand of...
Bruin Bites: XSF's Return, Hoffman's Draft Position Rising, Alzheimer's Breakthrough at UCLA
It's Wednesday, so we're halfway to the weekend, which, with college football finally over for the year, will only feature Ben Howland's squad facing off against hated U$C at the Costco Galen Center on Sunday. Ironically, in his latest "blog" Chianti Dan laments the "13-mile trek across town" to...
Return of UCLA Football: Linebackers Springing Into Focus
As Bellerophon wrote yesterday, we are in a period of transition among the biggies of Bruin sports (not meant to diminish our baseball of softball teams, gymnastics or any of the other spring sports). With the recent end of basketball's season, we are only days way from spring football practice,...
[Update x3] UCLA Def. Coordinator Update - Neu Back In Town, Interviews Kentucky's Brown, Neu to Lock It Down?
As we noted earlier in the week, after the Veto Seto campaign reached its zenith, Coach Neuheisel took a few days off to celebrate his birthday in Cabo. He was scheduled to come back to LA today, but judging by his twitter description of a staff meeting yesterday, it looks like he made it back to...
UCLA Football Signing Day Wrapup, Part Two - Offense
Today, Bruins Nation finishes our two-part review of this fall's incoming class of football recruits. Yesterday, I discussed the players recruited on defense; today, it is the offense's time to shine. The signing day press release from Morgan Center is here, while video of Coach Neuheisel's press...
UCLA Football Signing Day Wrapup, Part One - Defense
As crazy as things have been at Bruins Nation over the past few days with the return of the Lavinoma and the continuing vacancy at defensive coordinator, there is a bit more to do with our incoming class of football players. Though we have a relatively small incoming class, there are enough players...
Coaching Reset: Kennedy Out, Fangio on Table, Shannon in L.A., and Florida's Heater in the Mix?
It's been a quiet week-and-a-half since Neuheisel pulled the trigger and gave Chucky "Prevent" Bullough and Reggie "Development?! Huh?!" Moore their walking papers. A lot of names have been thrown out and discussed for both positions, from Miami's former HC Randy Shannon to Stanford's Vic Fangio...
Boom! Neuheisel Fires Bullough and Moore
As alluded to over the last day or two (HT to SuperBruinMan), Rick Neuheisel has given Chucky "Base D" Bullough and Reggie "Stone Hands" Moore the axe, moving the football program's coaching staff in the right direction. This morning it was made official, per Ramona Shelburne and Peter Yoon at...
Spaulding Roundup: It's Game Week
After long last, it’s game week. We have waited for this week to start since December 30, 2008. Interestingly our last full fledged game week for 07-08 here on BN involved a basketball team from Tennessee. We get to kick of 08-09 Bruin athletic season with the marquee sports institution from...
Neuheisel's Promise
I missed this Neuheisel profile that ran in the in the New York Times yesterday. Bill Witz wrote it up. Do you guys remember Witz? He was Dohn's predecessor at the Daily News. It's another good read. The interesting tidbit from this profile was how much time UCLA officials spent in vetting...
