Front-runner in UCLA search
UCLA officials may have moved a step closer to finding a new football coach, after Rick Neuheisel was brought in to be interviewed by UCLA Chancellor Gene Block on Tuesday. Neuheisel, currently the offensive coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens, was interviewed by UCLA Athletic Director Dan Guerrero last week and is believed to the front-runner for the position. DeWayne Walker, UCLA's interim head coach; Norm Chow, the Tennessee Titans' offensive coordinator; and John Harbaugh, a Philadelphia Eagles' assistant coach, were also interviewed for the job. But the source said that Neuheisel is the only one of those four to receive an interview with the chancellor at this time, a necessary step before a job offer can be made.

He's the Ravens O-coordinator but he doesn't call the plays. It's not a surprise he's looking for a new job.

Neuheisel did a fine job with Colorado, I can't see why he wouldn't be offered this opportunity. He is a good coach.

He did alright at Washington. He might not be a bad choice.

I've got his name in the coach pool, so let's hope he comes up blue and gold.

So I guess the thinking for UCLA is that USC is getting their stud recruits via some shady dealings, so they have to keep up. Neuheisel may be a good coach, but he doesn't some much pay attention when it comes to the rules.
I just think he's got too much off the field baggage to hand him the reins of a multi-million dollar football program. It's a coaching hire that almost guarantees instants NCAA scrutiny for your program.

Crimson_Star is right he's a good coach, but do you really want the NCAA breathing down your neck.

Say hello SANCTIONS! I bet in about 2 years they will be under investigations. Then he'll leave and head to another school and try and steal players from UCLA. What a joke!

Good lord. Has anyone at UCLA actually watched the Ravens this year?
This guy wouldn't be there for the long haul. Three years max, and I'd bet there would be NCAA rules infractions.
Not what UCLA needs.
