Slick Rick

Bud Withers of the Seattle Times offers some thoughts on Rick Neuheisel at UCLA here.

I think he is a bit kind to Rick and a bit optimistic about his prospects at UCLA. At both Colorado and Washington Neuheisel did well with the talent he inherited from the previous coaches but poorly once his own recruits came on line. I think the talent pool he is inheriting at UCLA is weaker than at U-Dub or Colorado. I predict a bumpy start and a short tenure.
