Last week, the Oklahoma Sooners lured outside linebacking coach and special teams coordinator Roy Manning away from the UCLA football team. This week, it looks as if the Bruins will hire his replacement.
It has been reported that UCLA head coach has agreed to terms with Nevada OLB coach Jason Kaufusi. An official announcement should be expected after all the ink dries on the contract.
For the last two seasons, Kaufusi has been the defensive line coach for the Wolfpack. In the years prior to that, he was the defensive coordinator at Weber State.
In 2018, Nevada had the 38th best rush defense in the nation, allowing only 142.
