Former Nebraska coach already topping UCLA coaching wish lists again

This fall, it's time for the Florida State Seminoles to be the ones to chew on their fingernails.
For the second time since the winter of 2024, UCLA is looking for a new head coach. The hire of DeShaun Foster was a spectacular failure, even if he did manage to upset Nebraska in Lincoln. Now he's fired after just three games into his second season. That's a quick hook for sure, but considering he just got trounced by New Mexico 35-10, it's not surprising.
