Week that was
Here is the new feature reviewing the most pressing things that took place last week:
Football
I reported strong safety Bret Lockett was suspended for the first game of the season (UCLA's announcement should be forthcoming).
Nate Chandler was moved from tight end to right tackle because of the offensive line depth woes.
It remains questionable whether DT Jess Ward (knee) will be ready for the beginning of training camp.
Basketball
Daily News staffer Scott Wolf reported North Carolina transfer Alex Stepheson to USC's coaching staff he would be a Trojan.
Anthony Stover of Renaissance Academy of La Canada and Tyler Honeycutt of Sylmar received scholarship offers.
About Inside UCLA
This is Brian Dohn's sixth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.
