LOS ANGELES (AP) – Rick Neuheisel was well aware of his reputation. He realizes his name became synonymous with sneaky dealings and sloppy player discipline during the first two decades of his mostly successful coaching career.
So when Neuheisel returned to take over his alma mater’s program, he resolved to do everything by the book at UCLA, even if it meant suspending multiple starters for violating even the smallest team rules.
Neuheisel apparently has stayed true to his vision of a squeaky-clean program – but his Bruins (3-5, 1-4 Pac-10) are still mired in eighth place in the Pac-10 for the third straight season of his tenure.
UCLA will attempt to end its three-game losing streak Saturday against Oregon State.
