Virginia Tech has also fired their head coach.
Three games into the season. Even if you've made the decision, you leave players and coaches twisting in the wind for the next 9-10 weeks. You're not going to hire the next guy while the season is still on. Players can make decisions to enter the portal now (I guess they could make that decision at 0-n at any time regardless of coaching continuity). I know the optics are bad around the UCLA program but this feels like a panic move.
If leadership determines a program is on the wrong track, there is no better time than now to make a change.
Players can chose to transfer at any point within 30 days of the firing date; however, they cannot play for their new program in the same season.
