After some internal evaluation of the position, Kevin Prince will remain UCLA’s starting quarterback, head coach Rick Neuheisel said this afternoon.
Neuheisel discussed the QB situation with Norm Chow this morning, and they decided, after saying that they “were going to evaluate our options, that Prince would remain the starter.
That being said, freshman Richard Brehaut is still in line to see playing time throughout the game.
“We studied the tape, and I talked with Norm, and we decided that Kevin would be the starter this week,” Neuheisel said. “But I asked that Richard get some playing time the final five weeks. He has merited getting playing time.”
Prince has struggled in two of the three games since returning from a three-game absence due to a broken jaw. In the loss to Arizona Saturday, he was benched in the second half and replaced by senior Kevin Craft.
