recruiting is a very "what can you do for me now" type of business and this goes back to what Fish said. UCLA is the team in LA now. USC will be playing catch up. The kids see that. they want the warm weather and the beaches and the girls. UCLA makes it the choice.
this choice was a no brainer for Clark to UM because UCLA doens't even have a tight ends coach and they really don't use one in their offense all that much. But the kid saw the bright lights and flash of SoCal and that was it.
I can't blame him ha ha
