Craft-ing Kevin

| | Comments (0) |

Here is a story I wrote on Kevin Craft and his path to UCLA that ran in today's paper. Also, here is the notebook Jill Painter wrote off Wednesday's practice.
One thing Craft told me was that his first day of class at UCLA was in early April, and that was the first day the football team had meetings to get ready for spring practice. The next day spring practice began, and Craft basically knew no one on the team.
"It was kind of a whirlwind," Craft said. "I didn't know anybody, except for Pat (Cowan). I met him on my recruiting trip, and I was trying to figure out who everybody was, and get a handle on the offense. I was pretty behind on all that. It was my first day, and I was trying to figure it all out."

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.
