UCLA won’t leave San Bernardino until Saturday, but several players have already rendered a verdict on holding one week of training camp in the desert instead of the usual two.
“I think the way they did it this year was awesome,” linebacker Kenny Young said Friday.
The team started camp last week with six days of practice in Westwood before venturing east. Coach Jim Mora said it would prevent players from conserving energy to make it through two weeks in the heat.
That appears to be the way it’s played out.
