The UCLA football team has just wrapped up Week 3 of Spring Practice, which means the Spring Showcase is almost here. Here are some Twitter news, notes and quotes from the past week, with an additional message from Head Coach Jim Mora.
The Offense Is Still Surprising
Kennedy Polamalu told us that he's been told to "stay away" from Myles Jack at RB. Said he's been trying to get him at RB.

Jim Mora on backup QB Asiantii Woulard's development: "He has stalled a little bit. Does it concern me? A little. But I think it's common."

The Defense Will Be Scary
#UCLA DBs were feisty and on their game today in practice. Ishmael Adams had three picks @UCLAFootball

Whitley on his experiment at OLB: "They wanted to see if I could try something new and master it. It didn’t work too well. I’m not perfect"

Thought Kylie Fitts had his best practice of spring today. Played Owa's DE position a lot, and Owa dropped back as hybrid OLB once or twice.
