I think he's about on par with a Troy Calhoun hire. Absolutely horrendous.

Maybe I don’t remember him at UCLA but Mora’s recruiting classes under performed.
And Dorrell was apparently recruited well enough to go to a Bowl game 5 straight years.
His recruiting was bad at UCLA: https://www.bruinsnation.com/ucla_r...ecruiting-history-of-ucla-football-since-2000
"Ironically, it takes us back to the beginning of the Dorrell era which has been viewed as having some of the worst recruiting in UCLA history. "

I’m sorry but a guy with moderate success as a head coach at a P5 school (5 consecutive bowl games) that has been coaching at the NFL isn’t on par with a coach from a service academy that has been running the triple option offense for the past 13 years.
Didn’t he win 10 games at UCLA?
They did not go to a bowl in his final season. He was 1-3 in bowls.

So we’re officially disbanding the program, right?

I assume everyone is seeing the 10000 tweets saying we’ve hired Karl Dorrell?

This is why Karl makes no sense
I don’t think that’s true. His last team (all his recruits) was expected to be his best. They were #11 early in the season and had a disappointing season. That’s why he was fired. And Guerrero thought that UCLA could compete with Carroll’s USC teams. Turned out Guerrero was wrong. Way wrong.

This isn't true
Yes, it is a low bar. Very true.

Yeah, based on that article it looks like he got better at it. And if he keeps Chev on staff (which he should) he’ll have a top 25 recruiter in house.
Plus, when you fail at something you usually learn from it, so hopefully he’s aware of what he needs to do better.
I think we should at least reserve judgment until we see his staff.

Transfer Portal is on overload!!!
I’m hearing it wasn’t well received by the players. At all.
