UCLA finished 4-8 last season, but some of the heat is already off the Bruins.
They will no longer hold a portion of their fall training camp in sweaty San Bernardino, Coach Jim Mora said Saturday, opting to stay exclusively on campus to utilize the new Wasserman Football Center and its two adjacent practice fields.
Players will lodge in the nearby Luskin Conference Center, allowing them to duplicate the bonding benefits of being in the desert without the accompanying 100-degree heat. Mora said he was confident that his team could also mimic the toughness instilled by grinding out practices in San Bernardino.
