Petros Going OFF On Lane Kiffin “No One Feels Sorry For USC!”

Audio/Video of Petros going off on a massive 13 minute tirade at Lane Kiffin during last night's Petros & Money show.   It's a must listen for anyone who is baffled by this particular Lane Kiffin response to why there are 6 Pac 12 teams in the top 25 rankings.  I quote. “It's the result of us not nailing recruiting over the last five years," Kiffin said Sunday when asked Read more

Westbrook, Long Tradition Of UCLA Hipsters

I see everyone is going ape shit over the outfit that Russell Westbrook wore to the post game press conference after game one of the western conference semi finals.   For those of you who missed it, here is what Russell decided to put on his body before speaking to the media.   Now do I think that it's a horrible outfit?  Kind of, mainly because of the gold that is Read more

Mancrush of spring practices: Steven Manfro

I ran into some guy named Barry Sanders last night at a party and I asked him, "hey, aren't you the black Steven Manfro?" Here are  couple of my Steven Manfro observations from watching the spring practices so far. During scrimmage, a swing pass was thrown to Steven Manfro from Richard Brehaut and to my amazement, after catching the pass Steven did not accelerate but rather just nonchalantly walked down the Read more

UCLA Football: Attack With Passion Poster

I get about 3 emails a week from this little blog of mine and about 3 of those tend to be from other bruin fans who love the fact that I am updating the UCLA image up to the modern times (aka. nike) with a little help my friend photoshop.   So here is one more poster for UCLA football and personally my favorite so far.   Attack with passion, go Read more

Lou Spanos’ Potential 3-4 Defense vs Joe Tresey’s 4-wtf-0-2 Defense

Above you see the potential 3-4 defense that UCLA might run in the upcoming football season, the whole thing is predicated on having a large nose tackle and tweener defensive tackles that will clog up the  gaps in the line, while having speedy line backers to increase the coverage of the field in both pass and run situations.   Or at least, that is what is stated on Wikipedia.  Now Read more

What RB Recruting Is To USC, CB Is To UCLA

welcome marus rios and isamael adams

While I was away celebrating the holidays with my family, UCLA football received two big time commitments at the secondary position in the name of Marcus Rios and Isamael Adams.  Both commits are 4 star corner backs in rivals recruiting system as well as the scout.com rankings.  Oy vey, too many stud corner backs is a great problem to have right Shlomo?  That makes what?  19 cornerbacks we are taking in this class?  Having great athletes like Ismael and Marcus is a great problem to have.  Am I right or am I right?  Like, can you have too many gefilte fish?  I don’t think so my friend.

UCLA beat writer Jon Gold has a great interview with Ismael Adams up at his dailynews blog (you can read the full interview here).  That Jon Gold, what a sweet young boy.  Here is an excerpt that I found interesting.

JG: You’re committing at a time when UCLA only has about half of its staff complete; what about the current coaches made you comfortable enough to commit without a defensive coordinator?
Adams: “I just saw the opportunity under Coach Martin, who was my second offer, and to play under a head coach who has coached defensive backs. Those two right there – a guy who had great success with players and putting them in the draft, and with Coach Mora having 25 years of experience not only as a head coach but with defensive backs – that was enough. One who knows the college realm very well. The other with the NFL technique and knowing what it takes to get there. Everything falls in its place.”

These recruits nowadays know all about not only the head coach of the school they are going to attend but also about the position coach in which they will play for and what kind of resume they carry.  I know people are bit antsy on the fact that Mora has not named a defensive coordinator position yet but we can all assume that whoever Mora chooses to fill that position, he will carry a big NFL experience with him as well as a long resume to have these kids excited about helping to turn the UCLA football program around.   So far I am giving Mora a A- for all the hires he made and recruiting efforts he has put forth.  I still hate Dan Guerrero with a passion though.

Matt Barkley Please GO AWAY! Another UCLA Uniform Post

Merry Christmas Everybody~~~~  Yes even to the USC fans,  hopefully you had little bit of free time away from knobbing on Barkley’s nuts to spent some quality moments with your family this weekend.  Remember, this  young Matty is different than the old Matty.  Leinart was a walking STD, he was used to someone being on his scholong at every waking moment, but this crooked smiled christian Matty has polar opposite family values.   Be delicate with this one, he needs care and affection before the act.  Maybe even a dinner or two followed by a love poem that recites your admiration for his rocket that he calls his right arm.   It will reduce his anxiety for sure, and maybe when your mouth is full of the QB kingdom, humm a little bit of “conquest” to make him feel at ease, to let Matty know that he is at a safe but a special place.   And whatever you do don’t let that Sanchez kid anywhere near the crooked smile golden boy, he don’t seem right with me, he don’t seem right.  *pounds another shot of vodka eggnog* Y U NOT GO BARKLEY?  WHY???????


The above photo is actually courtesy of NIKE pro combat poster for LSU tigers, in which I raped the color purple (i believe there is an ebony porn movie by the same name) a bit to make it a friendlier blue and replace the mud hicks logo on the helmet with a UCLA logo.  The idea came to me when I was browsing through variety of sketches of pro combat uniforms available on the web via something called google images (yes google, I know that I spelled ‘tittys’ wrong, just give me the damn images okay save me the freaking spelling lesson) I realized how much the LSU pro combat alternative uniforms resembled the new UCLA all white alternative uniforms that we were suppose to debut against USC last month.   Too bad that game got cancelled because of a severe wind storm caused by all the supermodels that were screaming my name in unison from all the loving I was giving them that night, otherwise we would have killed those cheating bastards on the shady part of town.   Yeah we totally would have, by like 50 points or something.  I am beginning to think that this combination of my crazy pills and vodka eggnog is not a good mix.  Happy holidays to everyone, no matter your religion, nationality, or school alliance may you guys/gals have a great holidays and a blessed new year.

Final Version Of Nike All Black UCLA Football Uniform

final version of UCLA football all black uniform from nike 2012

So got a decent amount of feedback for my last all black UCLA football uniform photoshop sketch.  The majority of the opinion seems to be that bruin blue color scheme would be better than gold that I used with the black, and more importantly, lot of people were requesting that I take off the dreaded Adidas logo and replace it with a Nike logo.  So above sketch is what you get fellas, bruin blue schemed all black football uniform with a white UCLA/Nike logo on the upper left.  Not too shabby if I say so myself, I might tweet this pics to the new coaches to see if they might want to  implement some of the design ideas on the new future alternative football uniforms.

How About Adidas UCLA All Black Football Uniform

adidas all black ucla football uniform for 2012

My previous mock sketch for an all black football uniform for UCLA might have been too extreme for some and I did receive couple of emails from readers of this blog asking me what an all black football uniform would look like if we kept the traditional layout of the UCLA jersey.   Well I think it will look kind of like what you see above, with a bit of a Purdue/New Orleans Saints flavor thrown in the color scheme and a neon yellow UCLA logo on the helmet in a homage to the Oregon Ducks.  Gotta say I kind of dig it, maybe even more than my previous radical concept for an all black uniform.  Also an alternate one with a bruin blue shade can be found here.

Welcome These New UCLA Football Commits

kenny orjioke commits to ucla bruins

The hiring of Adrian Klemm is already paying off dividends for the UCLA bruins with the commitment of projected outside linebacker Kenny Orjioke from Marietta, Georgia.  Even though Kenny is playing for Lassiter high school, he is originally from the So Cal area and is only a 16 year old senior who skipped a grade due to traveling abroad.  A 16 year old kid with a 6’4 230lb frame is hard to find and while he might be a bit of a project at the secondary or linebacker position, he appears to be another tweener in the form of Akeem Ayers to my untrained eyes.   Snooping around in message boards of schools where Kenny had his other offers from, they all seem to feel as though he will get additional offers from other big time programs due to his potential and his size.  Great get for Adrian Kelmm and the UCLA staff, welcome to the bruin family Kenny, and don’t ever read BRO or bruinsnation if you want to keep your sanity.  Kenny’s scout profile can be found here, and his rivals profile can be found here.

Additionally, former Washington Huskies commit Taylor Lagace flipped his college choice to UCLA after Jim Mora hired Demetrice Martin as the new secondary coach.   Taylor plays for Arcadia high so playing at the Rosebowl in Pasadena during his college years should be prefect scenario for his family.  Additionally, if Taylor’s football career does not workout for him it seems as though he will be a prefect stunt double for Adam Brody going by his profile picture on scout.   Who is Adam Brody you say?  He was that cute guy from the TV show O.C remember?  Oh you didn’t watch that show?  Yeah me neither man, I just like remember his name and shit cause you know my sister use to watch that thing in the background when I was like pumping iron and breaking bricks with my fists and shit.  Yeah man forget that whole Adam Brody reference, naw wha I mean?   Whateverz, ya know?  Shiiiiittttt…   I gotta bounce to go train some jiujitsu  right now naw wha I mean?  Triangle choke some fools, ya know..  *looks up triangle choke on google*  Okay forget that whole triangle choke thing and let’s just go back to the Adam Brody reference.  Taylor’s scout profile can be found here, and his rivals profile can be found here.
