Post-practice update

| | Comments (2) |

*Aaron Hester got many reps with the ones, rotating with Sheldon Price, but Hester was in there at the end during the two-minute drill portion. I would be surprised if Hester didn't start.

*Richard Brehaut said after practice that he expects to go in the game in the first half, as Rick Neuheisel has assured him, but that he understands that it's a game-time call. "It's coach Neuheisel's call - I'm sure if Kevin's rolling, he's gonna leave him in there. That's all up to coach Neuheisel and coach Chow. If Kev's thrown for touchdown passes on three straight drives, I'm sure he's not gonna yank him out."

*Ryan Taylor worked in at right guard with Nick Ekbatani and Stan Hasiak. Should be an interesting development...

*Nik Abele said before practice that he hasn't been able to sleep for three days with a sore neck after colliding with Nate Chandler in Thursday's practice.

*A sense of urgency has set among the players, as they've waited four games to match their win total from a year ago. Banged up players are out there competing, including Reggie Carter, who is playing with a sprained knee.

I think your last bullet point should say "*A sense of DESPERATION has set among the players..."

It's obvious that this team is regressing. Neu and the rest of the staff need to be fired so UCLA can start fresh and find a coach that actually knows how to build up a team.
