LOS ANGELES -- Jedd Fisch walked into the UCLA football facility Sunday morning expecting business as usual. Instead, he was dealt what he described as a life-changing experience.

Fisch was called into a meeting with athletic director Dan Guerrero and his associate, Josh Rebholz, and informed that Jim Mora, the man who hired him as the offensive coordinator not even a year ago, had been let go. The meeting was short and to the point: They wanted him to serve as the interim coach this week against Cal and, should the Bruins win, through bowl season.
