This one is for you, T.........I am offering a new handle for our coach (at least, I haven't seen someone bring this up....and my apologies if someone already did): "The Wizard's Apprentice." It is a respectful handle. It perfectly honors John Wooden's legacy while capturing the fact that Bob Chesney is only 49 years old, in his very first season at UCLA, and is currently building toward that ultimate championship goal. It also is grounded in the absolute magic he is working on the field right now, while acknowledging that he is learning and applying the Master's trade of turning an athletic program into a national powerhouse. In addition, this "Apprentice" has an incredible opportunity to graduate to "Master" status very soon. With an 8-0 record, the Bruins are sitting on the doorstep of the Big Ten Championship and a guaranteed spot in the College Football Playoff.....What a ride thus far!

"This is the highest ranking for UCLA since October 21, 2001. For perspective, UCLA was still six months away at that point from naming Dan Guerrero as the school’s athletic director."

...says it all, Joseph, says it all!

From the epic work by Jack Douglas, Never Trust a Naked Bus Driver, the sign up ahead at that point...

Can’t say enough about Bob Chesney. Most of us were saying we’d be happy with 7 wins and a bowl game. Lots of football still to be played, but man has he exceeded expectations. We hired the right guy!
