## Resource

UCLA football is on the brink of a dramatic rebuild under new head coach Bob Chesney, who’s bringing his championship-winning James Madison system and an elite 11th-ranked transfer class to Los Angeles. After a disastrous 2023 season — marked by a fired coach, a 3-win record, and a struggling QB — the Bruins are reloading with familiar faces like Wayne Knight and Landon Ellis, plus defensive stars Sahir West and DJ Barksdale. While most experts see them outside the top 40, Chesney’s proven track record and roster overhaul could spark a surprise turnaround, with a shot at cracking the top 25 by season’s end.
