It could be a rocky season for the UCLA football team if their quarterbacks fall victim to injuries like they did last year. Though the Bruins have reliable backups, they are pretty thin and do not have a lot of experience.
A year ago, UCLA head coach Chip Kelly brought in Wilton Speight, and many wondered why. We quickly saw that Speight’s experience became a useful tool with the Bruins’ offense in flux. His knowledge and leadership helped bring the offense closer together, and by season’s end, we saw that they were able to move the ball down the field more efficiently.
