“Felt lied to, to be honest,” said Doeren, per Mark Schlabach of ESPN. “We felt like UCLA probably knew something was going on, didn’t tell anybody on our side. We had no clue they were up against that. I don’t feel like it was very well handled from their university. It would’ve been great to have had a heads-up two or three days ago. We could’ve found a Plan B. Disappointing.
Sources tell @PackPride the UCLA equipment team arrived at 10 a.m. PT yesterday to pack up the locker room.
UCLA did not let anyone from the Holiday Bowl or NC State know until hours later. NC State was informed just after noon. By that point, UCLA staff was leaving Petco Park.
UCLA knew they were in trouble days before. They were moving backup linebackers and Oline to the Dline. Then more positive tests yesterday. IMO UCLA could have been more forthcoming.
