Guy couldn't even keep a job in the CFL.. we pick Kickers like the Lions pick Recievers or the Browns pick QBs

I personally think we should teach Armanti how to kick. Got to be something he can do.

UCLA kicker Justin Medlock was arrested early Saturday morning on suspicion of being involved in an alcohol-related accident on the San Diego Freeway in Inglewood that left a member of the women's golf team with serious spinal injuries, the California Highway Patrol said.

Medlock, a junior recently named second team all-Pacific 10 Conference and considered an NFL prospect, rolled his pickup truck in the northbound lanes of the freeway about 3 a.m. and walked away from the crash, California Highway Patrol Sgt. Jodi Legarra said. Inglewood police arrested him on Florence Avenue, about 1 1/2 miles from the accident scene.

His passenger, Hannah Jun, was taken to UCLA Medical Center, where she was treated for broken vertebra in her neck. Hospital officials declined to provide information about her condition. Medlock was treated at Daniel Freeman Memorial Hospital for a swollen eye, cut lip and chest pain before he was taken to jail.

The 22-year-old kicker was booked into the sheriff's Inmate Reception Center on suspicion of felony drunk driving causing injury and felony hit-and-run, Legarra said. He was released from jail about 9 p.m. after posting bail, a sheriff's spokeswoman said. Bail had been set at $100,000.

Medlock crashed his 1998 Toyota Tacoma into a call box north of Manchester Boulevard before the truck rolled and ended up on its roof on a freeway onramp, Legarra said.

When officers arrived, Jun's body was partially dangling from the truck. Medlock, who smelled of alcohol and failed a field sobriety test, told officers that he had been drinking with friends in Newport Beach, CHP Officer Dale Horne said.

Jun, 20, is a junior from San Diego who attended Torrey Pines High. She recently qualified to play on the Futures Tour by tying for 21st in the qualifying tournament in Florida.

Medlock's arrest comes as the No. 17-ranked Bruins prepare to play Northwestern Dec. 30 in the Sun Bowl in El Paso.

Based on how UCLA Coach Karl Dorrell handled off-the-field alcohol-related incidents two years ago, it's probable that Medlock will be suspended for at least the bowl game, though UCLA officials would not comment. One official did say he expected Medlock to be suspended.

In his first season at UCLA in 2003, Dorrell suspended quarterback John Sciarra and cornerback Marcus Cassel for alcohol-related incidents. Sciarra was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor disorderly conduct and public intoxication and providing a false name to a police officer. Cassel was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol.

Earlier this season, Dorrell talked about his team's discipline policy.

"We remind our young student-athletes all of the time that they not only represent themselves and their families but also the university," Dorrell said.

Over the last two seasons, Medlock has stepped up as a reliable kicker for the Bruins, making 28 of 37 field-goal attempts. This season, he has made all 50 of his point-after kicks and is 13 of 17 field-goal attempts.

Medlock is second on the team in scoring with 89 points this season. Last year, Medlock was an all-Pac-10 first-team selection who led UCLA in scoring with 87 points, including three field goals of more than 49 yards.

I remember the last time we had a left-footed kicker... if I recall correctly he was pretty good.

In all seriousness, cutting Mare may cost us a couple mil but will win us 2-3 games if this guy proves to be somewhat clutch. That's pretty much like saying cutting out processed foods from my diet will cost me maybe $100 a year but will drastically improve my health. Hurney screwed the pooch on this contract, and he's going to have to eat it.

      Could Morgan be eyeing Trey Hendrickson

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I see the logic in what you're saying, but I'd also say there were games with a bit more talent on the roster that some of the L's are actually W's.  AZ - We don't get off to a crappy start and if this game is later in the season when Bryce is a bit more comfortable, I think we beat the Cards NO - At least one of, if not both of these games would've gone our way SF - Perfect opportunity to snag a win on the road that Purdy handed to us, but we couldn't do anything offensively TB - Final game was winnable in Tampa  All this to say, I think 8 wins is about where we were at in 2025 if you take the games we barely won and combined them against the games that we barely lost.  Add 5-6 new pieces in FA and the draft. We went head to head and almost beat the Rams in a meaningful playoff game that gave a lot of the youth that experience to take into 2026 and beyond, and I do think 10-11 wins is achievable next year.  Not guaranteed, but much the way folks thought we could get to 8 or 9 wins this year as the ceiling, I think 10-11 is the new ceiling for next year.

      Milano at LB.  We just have Jags at the position. Can still draft an LB. Likely has to be in consideration at TE. Sanders hurt. TT FA. Doubs, Alec Pierce, Shaheed. All three could really help this offense in totally different ways. Doubs feels the most redundant of the group but he is also the most polished and talented wr. Be done w XL.  I still argue that Bryce needs an elite, Houston-type, defense in order to succeed here. I would legitimately find out the asking price to both Myles Garrett and Vita Vea. Cleveland is transitioning and will have a new coach. Vea is in last year of contract.  Assemble the best dline in football. Bring in Milano to fix ILB. Corners are good. Safety’s aren’t terrible and Ransom looks promising.  You’d have a 3 year window or so.   Biggest issue w any plan is going to be LT. Idk what the fix is there.
