Post-practice quickies

| | Comments (1) |

UCLA began working on varied snap counts and it resulted in a bunch of false starts, but coach Rick Neuheisel said the team would continue to work through it.
He said he is impressed by the freshman receivers -- Jerry Johnson, Antwon Moutra and Nelson Rosario, who made a fantastic finger-tip catch for a touchdown -- and the freshman running backs (Aundre Dean, Derrick Coleman, Milton Knox and Jonathan Franklin) and said they were "electric."
Starting right guard Scott Glicksberg left practice early because of illness, but is expected back Thursday.
Also, Neuheisel said a decision was going to be made tonight on whether or not UCLA will continue to split the squad during practice drills the next two days, or combine the whole team. He said the secondary is thin and is getting strained. Freshman Rahim Moore, Aaron Hester, E.J. Woods and Tony Dye spent the last two days practicing during the first and second sessions.

Brian- I was absolutely flummoxed this morning when I read that we never varied our snap count last year. Why would we, who ostensibly have kids of a slightly higher mental caliber, have so much trouble with such an elemental part of the game? Was last year the only year this happened?
