Weekly Answers, Pt. 7

1) I have been reading a lot more about Hester in the secondary than Moore so far in camp. Is that because Moore had high expectations coming in / was a known quantity? Or is it that Hester is having the better camp as a DB? - AnonymousYou were right on the first one: Hester is an unknown quantity, while Moore, well, there's not much to write about Moore that hasn't happened.

2) If UCLA fails to make a bowl game this season (5-7 or 6-6 record), do you think some of the high quality recruits currently considering UCLA will decide to head elsewhere? - OverandOut
I never put anything past Neuheisel as a recruiter, but I definitely think his job will be harder if the team doesn't get to a bowl. It's all about momentum.

3) Has anyone been practicing at center other than Kai Maiava? As in second and third string? Have we not been addressing this very issue in our recruiting the last couple of years? - Anonymous
Ryan Taylor worked extensively at center during the spring, and Greg Capella has been used at center, but it's hard to find a really good center out of high school. They're really addressing the line this year in recruiting, though, and I know they're not done yet.

4) Any chance Rick will get Wittek or Kessler to flip to UCLA? - FOOTBALL
Is there a chance? Sure. Will it happen? Doubt it.

5) Jon. I like the videos. Can you give us some tech details? What camera do you use? Are you holding the camera? Are they recorded to memory cards or tape? It looks like you're using Windows Movie Maker to edit. Correct? - Anonymous
I use a regular HD flip cam, and yes, I'm holding the camera. I take the video off Flipshare and then edit them in WMM before uploading them to Youtube. Whole process takes about 30 min. per video, if not longer. I'm glad you're enjoying them; they're fun to do, and I think they give a pretty good look at a player's personality.
