With that said, UCLA coach Bob Chesney mentioned a couple of unheralded Bruins players by name on Wednesday when asked about guys who are going under the radar.
"One guy that pops off the screen a little bit every day is Brian Rowe, who transferred in from South Carolina. His development every day is surpassing what we actually thought maybe he was as a football player. His strength in the weight room is phenomenal, but then his understanding of the playbook continues to grow. He makes some pretty elite plays. That's important," Chesney said at Big Ten Media Days.
Chesney also spoke about a player who followed him to UCLA from James Madison.
"We talked a little bit earlier, Sahir West has done a great job. Came over from JMU with us, is doing a really good job on the other side of the ball. We haven't been live for some time yet. To watch their progressions and their growth, for sure they're developing at a high level right now," he said.
UCLA will need all the help it can get as they look to bounce back from a 3-6 Big Ten conference record a year ago.
