  • Nathaniel Withdraws from Basketball Team to Pursue Employment Opportunity
    UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA lEW§ Bierman Field Athletic Building 516 15th Avenue Southeast Minneapolis, i\ 5455 (612) 625-4090 Fax 625-0359 For Immediate Release Dec. 4, 1999 NATHANIEL WITHDRAWS FROM BASKETBALL TEAM TO PURSUE EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY Junior guard Kevin Nathaniel has decided to withdraw from the Golden Gopher basketball team and pursue an employment opportunity. Nathaniel has missed the first five games of the season with a foot injury. A starter in 22 games last season, Nathaniel came to Minnesota from the Air Force where he was a canine specialist and military police officer. The employment opportunity is at a school in Illinois that specializes in this field and will allow him work and finish his college education. "I have been wrestling with this decision for a couple of weeks," said Nathaniel. "It is a great opportunity to work in a field I enjoy and have experience in and it will pay for the rest of my educational costs. It was a tough decision because I'm really like Coach Monson and the new staff and I think things are headed in the right direction. I will always remember the great experiences I had as a member of the team. The Minnesota fans are the greatest and I will really miss my teammates. In my heart I will always be a Golden Gopher." Nathaniel averaged 4.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists last seasons and was an Academic All-Big Ten selection. He posted a 4.0 GPA last spring and was named aU of M scholar athlete.

    2015 UCLA FOOTBALL JIM MORA Head Coach 4th Season Washington '84 On December 10, 2011, former Atlanta Falcons and Seattle Seahawks head coach Jim Mora was named UCLA's 17th head coach in school history. In 2014, Coach Mora guided the Bruins to the ninth 10-win season in school his- tory, matching the school record for wins in a season. It marked the third straight year in which Mora's Bruins had produced at least nine wins, a À rst in program history. His 29 total wins are the most-ever by a UCLA coach in his initial three seasons on the job. Following the victory in the 2015 Alamo Bowl, UCLA had captured wins in 10 straight games away from the Rose Bowl to tie that school record, including a school-best 7-0 slate in 2014. That win was also the team's third over teams ranked among the Associated Press' Top 15 at the time of the contest, which was the most by the program since it defeated four such teams in 1952. The Bruins capped off the season ranked No. 10 in the À nal AP poll which was the highest for the program since 1998. Linebacker Eric Kendricks, who became the school's all-time leading tackler during the 2014 season, went on to be UCLA's À rst recipient of the Butkus Award and the À nished no lower than fourth in the NFL versus the run and in 2003, produced 42 second-straight winner of the Lott IMPACT Trophy. Quarterback Brett Hundley set sacks, to tie for second in the conference.

The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope.
