College football begins this month, and fans are certainly feeling the buzz. Bob Chesney heads into his first training camp as the Bruins' head coach, and there is a ton of excitement surrounding this 2026 UCLA team.Quarterback Nico Iamaleava finds himself in an interesting situation as a redshirt junior: he will enter training camp as a veteran, but also the new guy. Chesney reasonably elected to bring over many of his players and staff from James Madison, so Iamaleava is responsible for learning yet another system under new coaches and new weapons at his disposal. Training camp can be a major step in the right direction toward getting this team accustomed to playing together, and UCLA has announced its fall camp schedule for the 2026 season.
