    Postgame BROCast: UCLA smokes Cal to open Bob Chesney era

    In this edition of the postgame BROCast, Dave recaps UCLA's 45-24 win over California to open the Bob Chesney era. Dave breaks down what this game meant for UCLA fans, and the program, with the Bruins blowing out California and doing it with some very JMU-like elements. The main key, though, was UCLA showing fortitude and competitiveness in buckling down when it was 24-24 and outscoring Cal by 21 to end the game. He also talks about the offensive performance, including the excellent rushing attack and the one poor play at the end of the first half that nearly flipped the game in Cal's favor. He closes by talking about the defensive performance, including the excellent play from Sammy Omosigho, and the more questionable performance from the secondary. Bruin Report Online is now at On3!

    Previewing UCLA vs. Cal, Talking Tim Harris

    In this edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy extensively preview the UCLA vs. California game and then talk about the expected impact of Tim Harris as UCLA's new CEO of athletics. We broke down both sides of the matchup between UCLA football and Cal, emphasizing the advantage UCLA has on the offensive side, and the potential advantage Cal has with its own offense. But then we noted that the major difference between these two teams is the coaching difference, with UCLA having major continuity between head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator, and Cal having first-time coaches at all three of those positions. Ultimately, we both leaned toward a narrow UCLA win. We then talked a bit more about the Martin Jarmond firing, and why it made sense to fire him at this juncture, given the financial mismanagement and his own lack of vision for getting UCLA out of this mess. We then discussed Tim Harris and why he's a good fit for the job. We also gave Julio Frenk his flowers for getting this done. Bruin Report Online is now at On3!

    EMERGENCY POD: Martin Jarmond is Gone, with Ken Graiwer

    In this special emergency edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy talk about Martin Jarmond being fired, and then bring on Ken Graiwer to talk about fundraising and more in the post-Jarmond era. As we reported earlier today, Jarmond was fired today after years of UCLA running in the red financially in athletics. Additionally, as Dave and Tracy talk about on the pod, Jarmond managed his athletic programs poorly, and also did a very poor job of meeting the aspirations of the fanbase. We talked about what the future could look like with Tim Harris as the new CEO of Athletics, and how the program will now be run with a much more business-oriented mindset. We then brought on Champion of Westwood head Ken Graiwer to talk about what this could mean for fundraising, roster-building, and the overall outlook for UCLA athletics (hint: it's very, very positive).

    UCLA football media day, Cronin interview, Tim Harris

    In this edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy talk about what they learned from UCLA football media day, the latest on the Trent Hendrick recruitment, their interview with Mick Cronin, and the news that Tim Harris is evaluating UCLA athletics. We led off with a discussion of media day. It was the first time UCLA has done a media day in years, and it was a great event. We talked about some of the things we learned from talking to the players, and what we might glean from who was available. We then talked about Trent Hendrick, the former JMU linebacker, getting added to the TRO and presumably gaining eligibility for this coming season, and what factors might play into whether UCLA has a chance to get him. We switched gears to basketball to talk about our interview with Mick Cronin (Part 1 and Part 2), and some of our key takeaways from the hour and 20 minutes. Finally, we ended talking about Lakers exec Tim Harris being enlisted to evaluate UCLA Athletics by Julio Frenk, and what that could mean for the Athletic Department.

    What we've seen from UCLA football fall camp so far

    In this edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy talk about what they've seen and heard from UCLA football so far in fall camp. We've seen four football practices so far in fall camp, and we went through all the different position groups and what we've seen and heard so far. We talked about the offense, and the areas we're most concerned (particularly on the offensive line and with Nico Iamaleava's deep accuracy) and the areas we feel best about (running back and receiver). We also talked about the defense, and the areas we're most concerned (defensive tackle, run defense generally) and the areas we feel best about (pass rush and the secondary). We then talked about some of the hype starting to build about UCLA, with a lot of people writing that people shouldn't be sleeping on UCLA. We talked about whether we think that's valid, and what it would take for UCLA to get to its ceiling. Bruin Report Online is now at On3! Join BRO today and get 5 months for ONLY $1!
