UCLA could have hired former OC and interim HC Jedd Fisch had they moved on from Chip, as was heavily rumored, but instead will be left holding their balls looking for a HC in mid-February. Chip was completely checked out from being a HC and the admin should have seen it coming a mile away, had it not been OSU it would have been a NFL OC job.
UCLA is going to be another Nebraska in the Big 10, and even Nebraska with it's geographical disadvantages at least has a competent administration and strong fanbase.
