Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
They're certainly up there when you think about where that program was.
Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
Um, under DeShaun Foster, was an interim coach that was elevated to a full-time role, and it didn't quite work out last year.
Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
He was fired mid-season.
Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
And you bring in Bob Chesney, who is starting to draw some parallels to Kurt Signatti at Indiana.
Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
They were sixth in spending even last year before they hired Bob Chesney, um, but the money wasn't exactly directed in the way that you would think.
Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
It's been a lot more into travel, food, facilities, and not so much into coaching staff, infrastructure, players.
Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
So Bob Chesney individually is making more than DeShaun Foster and both of his coordinators made combined a year ago.
Kennington SmithCORRESPONDENT
Um, their assistant coaches are making five times as much as last staff.
Thor NystromGUEST
But yeah, also getting Neuheisel.
Thor NystromGUEST
Neuheisel thought he deserved consideration for the full-time UCLA job after, recall, last fall, UCLA came out comatose under that DeShaun Foster guy.
Thor NystromGUEST
DeShaun Foster couldn't even speak in front of the media.
Thor NystromGUEST
You remember his first time at, at Big 10 Media Days, and he speaks publicly better than he coaches.
Thor NystromGUEST
Those teams were horrid under him.
Steve MasonHOST
Think about that.
Marcas GrantHOST
From the Deshaun Foster debacle to into the playoff in one year.
Marcas GrantHOST
Okay,
John IrelandHOST
Mace.
RJ AbeytiaHOST
Um, he brought Ikaika Malo- Malloy to coach the defensive line.
RJ AbeytiaHOST
Ikaika Malloy was the defensive coordinator for UCLA last year who hit the road, just left, along with UCLA's offensive coordinator in case you wonder how that season was going, towards the end of the DeShaun Foster disaster-
Ryan AbrahamHOST
Yeah
RJ AbeytiaHOST
... term.
Rob ZatechkaHOST
I think UCLA is for real.
Rob ZatechkaHOST
But that was a roster that I thought under Deshaun Foster – was a very, very good roster.
Rob ZatechkaHOST
That was an amazing group of athletes last year and the year before.
Rob ZatechkaHOST
They finally found a coach.
Spencer WagonHOST
That was a brutal game, brutal watch back in 2024.
Spencer WagonHOST
That was DeShaun Foster's signature...
Spencer WagonHOST
Was that DeShaun Foster's signature win? I think it was, in his short tenure at UCLA, besides him reminding us that UCLA and USC are both in LA.
Spencer WagonHOST
Remem- rem- we, we got that n- important nugget of information from his, uh, his, his tenure at UCLA.
Spencer WagonHOST
Um, so yeah, they've won four of their last five, but the last Friday night loss was out of the Pacific Time Zone.
Spencer WagonHOST
But, uh, losing to Minnesota at home, 27-24.
Spencer WagonHOST
Uh, then, uh, they blew a 21-10 lead to USC, ended up losing 25-21.
Spencer WagonHOST
So for Washington, this is a, a, an important game in terms of, uh, you know, "Hey, let's, let's, let's try to right the ship here." And, you know, I, I made the, the kinda half-joking comment about the signature win for, for UCLA and Deshaun Foster.
EmilyPANELIST
Do you want PJ Fleck to coach USC?
John IrelandHOST
I wanted, I wanted UCLA to look at him when they fired DeShaun Foster.
John IrelandHOST
I don't know if they ever did.
John IrelandHOST
Um, I, I think they absolutely nailed it with this Bob Chesney hire.
Mike LukeHOST
Jermaine Lewis was supposed to start at running back, and he got hurt.
Mike LukeHOST
And Dick Tomey said that they were actually hoping that he would play because that meant Deshaun Foster came in.
Brad AliceHOST
Yeah.
Brad AliceHOST
Man, UCLA used to have some running backs.
Connor EaregoodHOST
That, the Minnesota loss-
Andrew GrahamHOST
Yeah, losing to DeShaun Foster's UCLA is just not tolerable stuff
Connor EaregoodHOST
... not even DeShaun Foster, it was, it was Steve Addazio.
Andrew GrahamHOST
Oh, that's right.
Andrew GrahamHOST
It was, it was, uh-
Zach Anderson-YoxsimerHOST
And the Bruins then butchered the replacement.
Zach Anderson-YoxsimerHOST
The only thing that's good about how badly they... filled the position that was once occupied by Chip Kelly and taken up by Deshaun Foster for just 15 games, it sent themselves up to be in a market to hire a guy like Bob Chesney.
Zach Anderson-YoxsimerHOST
Indiana went out and got a Kurt Cignetti, and we were lucky enough to find out there's another JMU coach waiting through two seasons of successful Dukes football.
Zach Anderson-YoxsimerHOST
Successful.
