SAN BERNARDINO – He looks great to me, but they almost always do in practice, college football players are generally impressive in their shiny helmets and when facing only friendly fire.
That’s true even way out here, where it’s 104 degrees at the moment, and I think I just saw Satan.
No, I’m not talking about Jim Mora, although he’s the devil who keeps insisting on staging UCLA’s training camp in a place that, in a meteorological sense, is not unlike real fire.
I’m here to see Josh Rosen, who might be the next star for the Bruins, his arrival conveniently coinciding with a time when Mora is preparing to do something he’s never done in his three seasons at UCLA – start a quarterback not named Brett Hundley, the Bruins’ previous star.
