Shaq Evans reportedly enrolls at UCLA

| | Comments (7) |

Shaquelle Evans, a wide receiver from Inglewood High, has reportedly enrolled at UCLA after transferring from Notre Dame. Evans was the No. 12 wideout out of high school, choosing the Irish over USC.

ESPN's Bruce Feldman is reporting that Evans chose UCLA over Oregon. Evans was said to have committed to UCLA earlier this month, but he sent me a text refuting the rumors.

Here's the story

Jon, when would he be eligible to play for us? Would he have to sit out the 2011 season as well?

Our qb lost a lot of confidence when all of his recievers dropped balls I have counted atleast 4 touchdown catches by recievers that could of changed the complection of the game its not all qb its the reciever dropps too..

I think there is enough blame to go around currently without needing to single out the receivers, the QB, or anyone else.

Fantastic. Another talented WR to be under-utilized by our sh!tty QB. Whatever happened to Randall Carroll, Ricky Mavray, Nelson Rosario, etc. We already have talented receivers. WE NEED A TALENTED COACH!!!!!!

Fixed it for you.

We need cohesion on all fronts, starting with the coaching. I still believe the basic talent level is there, but nothing is gelling at the moment. If I were coaching, I would look at the videos of game 1 and game 2, see what worked, and run those plays against Houston. Keep it simple, both offensively and defensively. Move Chandler back to DT and rotate Graham and Owa at the end opposite Holmes. I would appoint my best LB pass rushers, Ayers and maybe Love, to move around constantly before the ball is snapped, trying to find the best path to the QB. I would bring Larimore up close to the LOS to help stuff the inside run and certainly blitz him occasionally up the middle. Pressure on the QB is our only hope in this game, but it will also leave our DBs on lonely islands. Covering all of Houston's talented WRs will be nearly impossible, and of course, the DBs will have to watch for any QB runs. The O must stay on the field for long periods to give the D much needed rest. Therefore, I would run, run, run. When they crowd the box, short dinks to our tall receivers and screens should be possible. If the O still stinks by half-time, I would pull Prince and bring in Bell. At least he offers the possibility of another running threat. We might not win this game, but I believe it is possible for us to at least be competitive and avoid another humiliation, such as we saw last Saturday.
