Sports: UCLA football coach search

Hmmm ... so far the only official interviews with the Chancellor have been with Neuheisel (former U Wash and U Colorado coach) and Golden (current Temple coach).

Color me unimpressed.

Neuheisel has UCLA ties having played and assistant coached at UCLA. However, he left two previous programs under a cloud. As for Golden, he may be a fine young coach but that is the problem, he is young and Temple doesn't exactly leap off the page as prime proving grounds for a coach.

So there are two possibilities: the search committee isn't committed to finding a top notch proven coach or the top notch proven coaches they have approached have turned them down.

Thus, the AD has either got a rabbit in the hat somewhere or we look to be stuck with either a re-tread coach or taking a chance on a young guy like the Dorrell hire.

The guys over at Bruinsnation are justifiably upset at the current state of affairs.

I'm sure the USC fan readers of this blog are enjoying the Bruins predicament and are saying, wake up and smell the coffee, UCLA isn't a football school!
