UCLA beats Tennessee and now they think they're hot stuff. Neu-weasel apparently chartered a helicopter to take him around the southern California area so he could scope out some recruits.

After watching the nation's No. 1 guard, Michael Philipp, play for San Bernardino Arroyo Valley at home against Pasadena High, Neuheisel fought through Los Angeles' traffic to make it to the Inglewood High-Long Beach Wilson game. Neuheisel was there to check out four-star receivers Shaquelle Evans and Jemari Roberts.

He wasn't done.

After watching Evans and Roberts, Neuheisel drove to the Hawthorne Airport and got in a helicopter to fly out to the Inland Empire to watch La Puente Bishop Amat on the road against Rancho Cucamonga Los Osos.

Neuheisel wasn't able to land at the school as expected, and was forced to land at Ontario Airport. By the time he got to the game, it was over.

Courtesy of the benevolent taxpayers of California!

Found in today's edition of the Los Angeles Times. Pretty ballsy move for Neuheisel, considering his team is completely unproven and USC is ranked in the pre-season top 5 of just about every national poll. At least he realized there WAS a monopoly in Los Angeles.
