With UCLA coach Chip Kelly set to take over Ohio State’s offensive coordinating position, UCLA, which enters the B1G next season, is now looking for a coach. Could they poach another B1G coach to head the ship in LA? According to CFB insider Brett McMurphy, Minnesota’s P.J. Fleck is expected to be a top contender.
UCLA coach Chip Kelly leaving to become Ohio State’s OC, @BruceFeldmanCFB reports. When Day was New Hampshire’s QB, Kelly was UNH’s OC. Expect Minnesota’s P.J. Fleck among UCLA’s top candidates

UCLA nearly went a different direction from Kelly at the end of last season so you would have to imagine they have vetted candidates already.
LA certainly would seem like an easier recruiting destination than Minneapolis but we will have to see.
