Jimmie Dougherty joins UCLA staff after seven weeks at Oregon

LOS ANGELES -- Jimmie Dougherty has been named UCLA's wide receivers coach, seven weeks after he accepted the same job at Oregon.

UCLA announced Dougherty's hiring Wednesday. He also will be the Bruins' passing game coordinator.

Dougherty agreed to join new Ducks coach Willie Taggart's staff in late December after spending last season at Michigan. His departure comes less than a week after new co-offensive coordinator David Reaves resigned at Oregon, following a January arrest for driving under the influence.

Dougherty was a passenger in the car but was not charged.

Dougherty was an offensive analyst for Jim Harbaugh and top assistant Jedd Fisch, who left Michigan last month to become UCLA's offensive coordinator.
