UCLA coach DeShaun Foster says performance coach apologized to team after penalty

LA Times  

UCLA coach DeShaun Foster, left, said head performance coach Corey Miller felt bad he taunted USC players and got a penalty during the Bruins’ loss to the Trojans. UCLA coach DeShaun Foster nominated defensive coordinator Ikaika Malloe for the Broyles Award, presented to the nation’s top assistant coach. “This is a real family over here, so I think that he’s pretty comfortable,” Foster said, “but we still want to make sure that we honor him and let him know that we do value you and you’re a great coach for us.” Malloe’s two-year contract that expires after the 2025 season pays him $1 million annually — the same rate that Lynn made before his departure. “He’s let me know early like, coach, we’re just going to finish the season and then assess everything after the season,” Foster said of Schwesinger’s message regarding his future.
