LOS ANGELES (AP) Injured UCLA linebacker Myles Jack has dropped out of school, and he plans to enter the NFL draft next year.
UCLA coach Jim Mora expressed trepidation about the injured Jack's decision when he announced it Tuesday.
''He's taking his chips and he's shoving them into the middle,'' Mora told reporters after practice with the 20th-ranked Bruins, who have a bye this week. ''We hope that he draws a good hand. At least I do.''
Jack is out for the rest of his junior season after tearing a ligament in his knee during a non-contact drill in practice last month.
