Moutra, the man

| | Comments (3) |

I was on hand for another of UCLA's 7-on-7 passing days Tuesday, and several newcomers continue to standout. One is speedy receiver Antwan Moutra, who is now drawing double coverage because of his ability to get down the field.
The buzz is Moutra should give the Bruins something they lacked recently -- a downfield threat with big-play ability.
Defensive backs Rahim Moore, Aaron Hester and Anthony Dye continue to perform well. Also, Jonathan Franklin showed tremendous burst and speed during the session.
Finally, receiver Nelson Rosario, who missed last week's passing drills with a hand injury, was in the mix. His size will be a huge asset, and he showed off good hands. He also glided effortlessly while running routes.

(Yes, I know it is 7-on-7 and putting the pads on with live hitting is another matter. However, at this point, it is all we have to gone on, and I am trying to compare it with year's past.)

About Inside UCLA

This is Brian Dohn's sixth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.
