Kids go there because it’s warm and it’s in LA they can put their small willies in blondes and they can meet movie stars on campus. Football comes last, football is their currency for acquiring everything else but it’s not what they go to UCLA to do. No star recruit ever picked UCLA to play football. That’s why they’re soft, they will always be soft, and they will always shit the bed and underperform. When a kid chooses UCLA the rest of the schools are relieved they dodged a whiney man-bitch that could have sucked their thumb on the sideline of their football games. Sometimes you don’t know who the bitches are in life until they commit to UCLA.
Double blow post, but I remember reading an article where Lesean Mccoy was talking about how he made the players wear sleep monitors and super Stalin like control policies.
He's cutting edge cutthroat looking for any advantage.
When you're winning, it works, but as soon as you hit a bump the implosion is accelerated.
That kind of stuff also works on college kids a lot better. Not so much on grown men who need their egos stroked. Professional sports is a lot more controlling these egos than it is actual coaching.
I wouldn't bet against Chip. But idk @CuntWaffle makes some good points. At Oregon Chip was already there and was installing his toughness and speed offense attack. It could take a lot of turnover at UCLA to get similar results.
But if Chip recruits to UCLA and gets them to play the league is in trouble. He lost 3 league games in 4 years at Oregon. Petersen would need to go 17-1 the next two years to match that run.
True. He was .500 against the only good teams he faced in the Pac during his tenure.
His hurry-up zone read blur dominated the rest of the dreck.

Chip had Phils money, nikes jobs, facilities that are second to none, and massive coffee cups at PEugene. He also still has to deal with higher school standards than anything he dealt with at UO. On top of that, his playing philosophy was new 10 years ago. Not anymore.

Chip will fail at UCLA. Cook it fags.
You know despite all that a coach with a pulse at ucla can out recruit Oregon at its finest hour. The brilliance behind chip never was just about tempo. It was about complete buy in and execution at a high level. It's why Oregons special teams and defenses got better under chip too and have since regressed. People forget that.
It’s going to take Chipper a couple years to get the machine rolling and I’m sure you will see a lot of turnover with kids leaving and getting kicked off. Unfortunately Chip can’t knock the soft out of all the current players like Petersen couldn’t get rid of the Sark stench on a lot here.
If Chip can’t get it done then UCLA is eternally fucked.
Chip is a failure. No natty. No NFL championship. Just a fatter version of Harbaugh.
Watching ucla crap the bed last night against K-State, my buddy and I spent several minutes watching and discussing all these talented players waste their fucking time at ucla. Is there any school in the country that underdevelops players more than ucla? Every year and every coach it's the same shit (kow).
And then he hit me with a stat that surprised me...but not really. ucla has never had an 11-win season. Never.
If boise state is the poster child for doing more with less, ucla must be the exact opposite.
Maybe chipster will break the decades-long cycle. Who knows.
The Texas Longhorns have to perform worse than UCLA compared to average recruit rating. They're the marque program right in the middle of the football mecca. They get loads of 4 and 5 star guys that will overlook a .500 record just to wear the burnt orange, and they're still awful.

It’s close, but texas has a recent national championship and several conference titles. ucla? Not so much.
Chip always has an abrasive transition. Very similar to Petersen who knows exactly what he wants, demands it, and if you can't hang GTFO.
It will be brutal in Westwood for a couple seasons, but then watch out.
Agree except for the watch out part. I don’t think he’s going to do that well.
Everyone says “wgaf” about these coaches record in the NFL, but Chip was a fucking disaster. The poster boy of this FS take is Pete Carroll, but Carroll was going 9-7 in New England.
Chip ran a playoff team into the ground because of his ego. He got rid of all his good players. He was branded a racist by some. He lasted one year in SF. I think that stink and the lingering effects are harder to shake than most of you.
UCLA is a shit program. They get talent because of their location, but nobody gives a fuck when they go 8-5, which is what I mostly expect from Chip.
I think something that would be interesting would be looking at a school's blue chips, and seeing what schools get the highest percentages of those guys to the draft. UCLA is loaded with blue chips, but don't produce equivalent draft picks. Schools like UW get as many or more draftees despite more blue chips. I think a cool graph would be blue chips per class on the x axis, with draftees on the y. It would show what schools develop those guys and which schools do not. UCLA would be an outlier, and not in a good way.
Utah probably wins this hands down. Practically no blue chips, 29 guys in the NFL
Teams with lots-o-blue chips, 22 to 53 UCLA 33 guys in NFL Worshington 22 Oregon 30 USC 44 Stanford 30 ASU 13
