If Chip were to get them rolling, UCLA and more importantly millions in SoCal would start caring about college football. You'd start seeing full stadiums and a lot of interest in UCLA football if he were to get them winning. They aren't like Stanford where even when they were winning they couldn't fill their stadium.trublue said:

Or win it all
UCLA cares less about football (historically) than the current regime in Seattle.
Lot of LSU fans helped but LA loves a winner -
Any program that's in the largest media market in the country and one of the top recruiting areas in the country can't be considered a backwater. UCLA like nearly every other sports organization in LA suffers from being in a town of front runners. If Chip got UCLA winning you'd see massive "support" from the media and the fans in LA. I lived there in 1998 when they were undefeated and ranked number 2. They packed the Rose Bowl. Now imagine Chip is able to do that for two or 3 years in a row.ntxduck said:

It’s the COVID era.
UCLA has never been a football first school.
There are a lot of other things to do in LA.
They have two NFL teams . . . USC, etc.
Most of all, I would be shocked if Chip is at UCLA in a couple of years.
The only place he has stayed for a long time as a coach was New Hampshire, then Oregon. -
Probably a ton of LSU fans who traveled despite Hurricane Ida.RaceBannon said:

I was there . . . I know. Long ago and far away in time.
I went to many Oregon games at the Rose Bowl with my brother during the 90’s.
1998 - Bob Toledo, HC, former Oregon OC. Cade McKnown, QB, from West Linn HS.
Akili Smith @ QB. Reuben Droughns ran for 172 yards and 1 TD despite fracturing his right fibula during the game, an injury that forced him to miss the rest of the season.
Nick Aliotti was DC at UCLA that one year.
Toledo fired him at the end of the season cuz he was mediocre and cost them a potential National Championship.
Nick came crawling back to his buddy, Mike Belotti and we endured his mediocre bullshit until Chip came.
Chip brought in Azzinaro as D-Line coach and he became the de facto DC while Chip was gracious and gave Aliotti the credit.
BTW, UCLA lost in the Rose Bowl to Wisconsin.
Toledo eventually got fired, followed by Karl Dorrell, Jim Mora, Jr., Rick Neweasel et al.

Nice run in the 90’s, particularly against USC.

You’re over your head, pal.coronabruin said:LSU is the defending national champion, pal.
LSU won the Natty in 2020 BCS game (2019 season).
They went 3-4 last year (2020) during the COVID shortened season.
“The coaching staff was overhauled after last years massive disappointment” . . . per a LSU publication.
Come back here and crow at the end of the season, PAL.

You shouldn’t joke about hypotheticals like this. It’s hurtful to joke about Chip coming back.ntxduck said:

He’s 57-years-old, almost 58. -
Get back to me after they lay a whuppin’ on Fresno State at the Rose Bowl next weekend.RaceBannon said:It was more the way that our Bruins matched up physically with the Tigers. Whipped them up front on offense and defense. That's what Chip couldn't do at Oregon
The road to the playoffs goes through Westwood
