    Win a half Natty at 9-0 and then Pop Off.


    Nice pic of the LA Colesium. Maybe UCLA should move back and return to their NC glory.
    Working out for the Rams so far.

    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.

    It would be a shame if people reminded UCLA recruits that Chip Kelly hates black people as talked about by LeSean McCoy.

    That sort of shit never works. The SEC didnt let a single black player on a roster until the 70s. Yet the black folk love them.

    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

    2 to 7 blue chips currently on roster
    WSU 7
    OSU 24 wow, this surprised me, I had no clue, Thanks Mike Riley
    Cal 31 Thanks Tedford
    Arizona 11
    CU 13
    Utah 29
