Oh Man...Hilarious!!
Try and read this while not laughing...
Derrick Coleman rambled for 11 yards to the right. Coleman then bulled his way for six yards. From that point Saturday,UCLA's "pistol" offense practiced gun control during the Bruins' first scrimmage.
Coach Rick Neuheisel said, "The drive started unbelievable. There were two unbelievable runs. That's what we're trying to get better at."Then...
And that is just the opening salvo...
Things dissolved quickly. On the third play, Brehaut audibled into a play that doesn't exist in the playbook, and Coleman lost five yards.
"We had a stretch [run] to the right and I saw Rahim[Moore] coming box, so I thought too many in the box to run that play," Brehaut said. "I checked it to another play that we can't even run in that formation.
Run 'fer yer life!!
"I have to get better in three weeks so if something is wrong with Kevin, I'm ready to come out here and perform."
Ya' think!!
The Bruins scored one touchdown that came after receiver Rickey Marvray went high to make a 27-yard catch to the 10-yard line. Three plays later, UCLA scored … when the ball was snapped early, bounced through quarterback Nick Crissman's legs to Johnathan Franklin, who used his speed to win a race to the flag.
Pistol or pop-gun?
Man, Chow sure is lighting it up over there!
Neuheisel was upbeat overall, leaning on the fact it was the first scrimmage.
"We didn't have our starting quarterback," Neuheisel said. "I think we'll be fine. I think we're where we need to be. … We'll know three weeks from now."
Right...You let me know how that's working out Huckleberry...
You gotta feel bad for the kids. They didn't sign up for this...but come on, it's like these guys haven't even read the play book.
At least they have a decent defense but even they can't do it all.
Here are some stats...
The offense rushed for 13 yards including the minus 10 that came with Jordan Zumwalt's sack.
Other stats:
Brehaut 2-3 for two yards 1 int. LoL...WTF?
Crissman 1-1 for 27 yards
Bell 1-2 with one interception and four yards passing.
Coleman seven carries for 20 yards.
Franklin three carries for two yards and one touchdown.
Jones had seven yards on three carries.
Oh...and Forbath is out with a groin injury....
Uh, Huh...Rick was right when I interviewed him there is no pressure to win at all.

They should replace the ucla script on the helmets with this "pistol"

Glad to hear Riley was such a scrimmage superstar thanks to all those easy pickins
Salve Caesar Augustus Kiffinus!

Paragon: I don't think you understand
Chris Foster is an awful, awful beat writer and horrible journalist in general who clearly has it in for UCLA.

Right plus no other options
who else wants a washed up 66 yo OC? USC might have hired him, but wasn’t willing to pay him a premium over his current state salary.
Death to the NCAA!!!
Norm refused to work for Lane Kiffin
Also he was pissed because he wasn’t offered the USC head coaching job. Norm will never come back to USC, and right now, I don’t think USC would want Norm back in any capacity. Bridge is burned.
I heard that Norm would have worked for Lane, if the price was right
But, he overplayed his hand with ridiculous price demands, then had to back down fast when Skippy Neuweasel got wind of it.
Death to the NCAA!!!
correct...2 mil...

Haven't you seen the price of flip-flops lately?

Easy answer
He can retire on the job at UCLA. Rick handles everything, just the way Norm likes it, he even takes care of the offense now. Anywhere else, Norm would be expected to produce. Don’t get me wrong, I like Norm, but the UCLA gig is perfect for him at this stage.
Yep and I here the only thing Norm does is put together the menu and build the pit for the luau.
