With former five-star QB Nico Iamaleava's transfer from Tennessee to UCLA now complete, it appears the Bruins have joined in on becoming a target of misplaced ridicule.
This week renowned Los Angeles Times columnist Bill Plaschke called the Bruins beggars and wrote that the whole thing stinks to Rocky Top. The idea posited by Plaschke that somehow both UCLA and Iamaleava lost in this situation is beyond absurd.
Think what you want about Iamaleava's well-publicized departure from Tennessee – and I wholeheartedly believe there are two sides to it and the Vols are escaping this mess remarkably cleaner than they should – but whatever you think, don't criticize the Bruins.
