UCLA's Spaulding Field Saturday morning
Scott Robinson
As the first few drills took place, today’s practice brought with it a
new mentality of confidence. With music now on the loudspeakers, the
NFL theme song piped through the as the Bruins began practice installing
their respective playbooks.
Unlike Thursday, the stands were packed full and along the sidelines roamed a party of coaches and recruits.
Today, spectators even camped out along Parking Lot six, looking over
the East side of Spaulding from various levels in the structure.
Entering this morning, UCLA held a coaching clinic—College jerseys of
the respective staff present were shown along the fence separating
Spaulding from Pauley’s construction site.
There was a feel out there unlike any other practice: a business
mentality was at the forefront. From the get-go, even when players were
stretching, the Bruins were attentive and quick to direction.
The energy was also evident: Another near dust-up pitted Cassius Marsh
against Kevin Prince—One has to like the cut-throat attitude carried by the
team nowadays.
Rounding out the practice was a good amount of 11-on-11’s, yielding
further insight into how the depth charts might look once the remaining
2012 recruits arrive this summer.
The One’s
Starting with the defense, there appears to be a consistent group working as the first team (“the White jerseys”).
