Here is the story I wrote for today’s paper about UCLA’s running back situation, as well as a notebook that includes the injury to quarterback Kevin Prince.
I know a lot of people are intrigued by the weight gain by a lot of UCLA’s players, and I talked to linebacker Akeem Ayers about it after Tuesday’s practice.
He gained 20 pounds in the offseason and was at 255, but he said the coaching staff asked him to drop some of the weight and he is now at 248.
