actually, ucla athletics is deeply in debt and a financial mess, thus the move to the b10 to try an shore that up.

UCLA's approaching revenue stream can't arrive fast enough after the school's athletic department posted a deficit of $36.6 million for the 2023 fiscal year, the fifth consecutive year that the Bruins have run a shortfall stretching into eight figures. latimes

TM, let me clarify, the statement I wrote was "There is money oozing from every inch of UCLA". That prose was meant as a description of the ENTIRE UNIVERSITY.

A couple of issues with the Athletic Department
- Pauley Pavilion is in the middle of the campus. I would say similar to Hale Library. Pauley is 13,800 and built in 1965. It has history, but it is not Allen
- The financial relationship with the Rose Bowl is not normal for a P5 University.
- UCLA has GREAT non-profit sports programs. But they do not bring in cash.
- UCLA Athletics has always had financial issues.

According to James H. Williams of the OC Register, Jarmond confirmed on Friday that Kelly’s $1.5 million buyout will be enforced. That comes as no surprise, since the Bruins posted a deficit of $36.6 million for the 2023 fiscal year, according a report from the Los Angeles Times. ksn

probably his ucla roster.

but hey, maybe he just wanted to coach will howard to the cfp. kelly is a qb whisperer of sorts.

I and my family went to the UCLA vs KSU game in the Rose Bowl. I realized then what a geographical mess UCLA has with their Football Program. Around that time I believe Coach Neuhiesel complained about not having functional practice fields on the UCLA campus. If I remember correctly they were only 80 yards long. The UCLA campus is across the street from Beverly Hills and is the nicest campus that I have ever been on. There is money oozing from every inch of UCLA. UCLA Athletics is very very successful and goofy, plus historically they do not pay Coaches well.

Serious question, is there any of these PAC-12 former and current athletic departments that are in "good" financial condition. Seems to me Cal is in an impossible hole and Arizona is a basket case, the two leftovers Wazu and the Beavers are hurting as well, are any of these clowns stable financially?

oregon's revenue is $138 million and uw $145 million. i'd guess other than private usc, they are financially the strongest. uw did report a $4 million loss, oregon $13 million surplus. by comparison, k-state reported $101 million in revenue and $82 million in expenses. both wsu and oregon state were reasonably close to breakeven, the former in the black the latter red. accounting can be quirky though.

Another coach with no head coaching or coordinator experience. I hope it works out for Deshaun & the UCLA Bruins, who have undergone coaching turmoil over the last few years.

With all that money trouble, they probably couldn't afford an established head coach.

Scott Fuchs, a college coaching veteran with more than three decades' experience, is set to test his skills at the next level, sources tell FootballScoop.

A longtime offensive assistant coach who's specialized in offensive line mentorship, Fuchs has accepted an offensive assistant role with the NFL's Tennessee Titans and new head coach Brian Callahan, sources confirmed to FootballScoop Friday.

Fuchs, an offensive line coach for all but one season of his career, has been a longtime staple on the coaching staffs of renowned program rebuilder Lance Leipold; he worked with Leipold at Buffalo and for the past three seasons at the University of Kansas, where the Jayhawks have experienced success not seen by the program in more than 15 years.
