Time to get it going

UCLA will scrimmage a little bit in the second half of practice today and doing a lot more situational work this week. What does that mean for the players trying to impress the coaching staff?

“It was encouraging to see what happened (Monday), but there’s still too many young mistakes, and guys have to understand that we’re going to have to move on without them if they don’t get rid of those things,” coach Rick Neuheisel said. “You have to be able to play with the ball in your hands, you have to be staying onsides. Those kind of things, after now almost a third of spring practices are done, have to have more penalty and consequence to them as we go forward.

“Guys have to understand we’re moving on without them if they don’t see the urgency.”
