The UCLA Bruins currently sit at 5-7 after losing back-to-back conference games to Washington and USC. Classic Big Ten football.
In a year where the college football playoffs have expanded to seemingly allow every program into the postseason now, this isn’t a great time for UCLA to be lightyears away from relevance.
With all the cash being tossed around these days and every player feeling like they’re free agents on year-to-year mercenary contracts, getting to the postseason is a great way to establish a familiar relationship with the kids at home watching on TV, who are internalizing your team’s colors, the quality of the marching bands, all that shit.
The Bruins average 18.2 points a game.
That ranks them 126th out of 134 DI teams.
Out of 134 total schools, only EIGHT have worse offenses than the UCLA Bruins.
So yea, they fired their offensive coordinator this week.
UCLA is making a change at offensive coordinator. Eric Bieniemy is out, sources tell @YahooSports. Bruins finished 117th in total offense this season.

Their OC was 2-time Super Bowl Champion, Eric Bieniemy.
That’s the second time he’s been fired in two years.
And as a total stranger’s career falls off a cliff before our eyes, I can’t help but immediately think about all the woke NFL media personalities, like Mina Kimes, who tried to call the NFL racist for not wanting to hire Eric Bieniemy even though we all knew the guy running one of the most explosive offenses in NFL history would struggle at UCLA. We all knew that then.
TRENDING: When ESPN & Mina Kimes strongly inferred Eric Bieniemy was not hired as a #NFL head coach due to his race.
“When it comes to the NFL’s diversity problem, Eric Bieniemy is just the tip of the iceberg.”
TODAY ERIC WAS FIRED AS A COLLEGE OC.

So many people in this world want things handed to them. Hopefully, all this DEI nonsense is coming to an end.
Not everything is racist and it is truly unfair and disgusting to accuse 32 NFL owners—billionaires who are only in rooms with black people when they get to an event, turn to their wives and say “shit, I didn’t realize Oprah was coming to this thing too”—of refusing to hire someone based on the color of their skin.
Mina Kimes and these snowflakes act like the NFL owners have the power to just exile a black quarterback who protests against police brutality out of their league.
Yea right.
It’s a meritocracy and Nathan Peterman was simply better than Colin Kaepernick.
Sure, a lawsuit was filed last year against Terry Pegula (Buffalo Bills owner) after he told a reporter “If the Black players don’t like it here, they should go back to Africa and see how bad it is“—but that would never stop him from hiring a black head coach.
Hm, I wonder why the Bills felt more comfortable giving the keys to Sean McDermott over Leslie Frazier.
What was so different between those two men?
Guess we’ll never know.
And yes, there is literally a photograph of Jerry Jones (Dallas Cowboys owner) hissing and throwing rock at black kids integrating schools in the 60s but times were different back then just like times were different when Pegula told the annoying blacks to go back to Africa.
2023 was, like, a bajillion years ago.
Regardless, look how many black head coaches there are today.
Todd Bowles. Mike Tomlin. Demeco Ryans. Raheem Morris. Antonio Pierce. Jerrod Mayo.
Stop making everything about race.
I know most of these men weren’t hired back when Mina Kimes and those ESPN crybabies were calling the league racist and to some people, it may look like the media’s constant needling at the NFL’s racial bias helped get more qualified black candidates into higher profile positions—but I’d say this has more to do with Trump’s America where we no longer see color. Thank you, Donald for ending racism.
