I feel bad for their fans (all 10 of them) who are going to have to put up with this, and the players who are getting pushed aside to placate the ego of Daddy Nic.I kind of feel bad for UCLA honestly.
Face it, when it comes to college football-they are basically harmless.
They really don't deserve Nic and 2 of his spawn.

Check out their message boards. Most are ecstatic about all of this and see multiple years of success in their future.I feel bad for their fans (all 10 of them) who are going to have to put up with this, and the players who are getting pushed aside to placate the ego of Daddy Nic.
I have no sympathy for the program itself or the coaches. They brought this on themselves
I guess that explains why they offered his brother who turned them down, then offered him again. No telling what deal was cut between NIC and UCLA. UCLA stupid to think the current QBs would hang around and watch.The fact that they saw Nico as a clear step up from Aguilar after a full Spring practice with him ought to give us pause. Hopefully either they are idiots or Merklinger is the guy.
Meh. Short lived coverage. Like two weeks. If they don't win, then it won't be a conversation during the season nationally
Nah. I see this as a no win situation for UT. Take all 3 of our QBs, toss 'em in a box and shake well. You'll still be rolling the dice and playing with fire in this league. While it might not have been as uncertain with Nico, just his presence and influence in the locker room might have cost us a game or two.The fact that they saw Nico as a clear step up from Aguilar after a full Spring practice with him ought to give us pause.

If neither of us make the playoff the powers that be have to do a UT/UCLA bowl game. That would be awesome.I took a gander at their schedule a few days ago
Looked pretty brutal honestly. 5-7 or 6-6 absolute ceiling. Good news is that the floor is probably like 4-8
They open against Utah. Willingham will probably make sure Nico spends most of the day on his butt. Should provide some nice cathartic viewing
Second game is vs UNLV which is a tough draw right now. That game is going to determine a great deal. Win and maybe they go to a bowl. Lose and they could go into free fall.

And another excited UCLA PWO QB has phoned home how he is now #6 on the depth chart.![]()
4-star QB enters NCAA transfer portal in the wake of Nico Iamaleava's decision to transfer from Tennessee to UCLA
UCLA Bruins redshirt freshman quarterback Dermaricus Davis is entering the NCAA transfer portal.
THat family will be far worse the Prime in the draft process. If Nico declares after this season, he will likely go UDFA.Meh, Nico is gone from UCLA after this season-either via transfer (most likely) or he will declare (and fall in the draft).
I doubt playing UCLA in a bowl would be cathartic and would just reflect a very poor season by the Vols
