UCLA head coach Bob Chesney joined Todd Blackledge and myself for an inside look at the Bruins, his coaching philosophy, and the culture he is building in Los Angeles.
In our conversation during the #23 ranked Bruins bye week, Coach Chesney explains how meaningful relationships shape a football program, why bringing trusted staff and players from James Madison to UCLA has been so important, and what he sees in the Bruins as they prepare for the season. He also shares his formula for performance and addresses the growing excitement surrounding UCLA football.
As someone else who moved from PA to LA, this one is a fun conversation for anyone who came from a small town to a global city in addition to anyone who enjoys conversations around leadership, culture and college football.
