UCLA’s ultra-clutch, high-energy QB-turned-playcaller
Neuheisel is best known for being a fearless, high-IQ football mind with real big-game juice: in the 2014 season, he famously led UCLA past Texas, and in the 2025 season he again showed poise and creativity as UCLA’s interim offensive play-caller, helping spark the Bruins’ upset of Penn State. He brings polish, urgency, and a deep feel for quarterback play, plus the kind of sideline energy that teammates and fans feed off. If you want a grinder with UCLA DNA and competitive fire, he’s a fit; if you want elite size-speed measurables, that’s not his lane.
