The Pac-12 Network will focus on the UCLA Football for Season 2 of their behind-the-scenes 15-week series, “The Drive: Pac-12 Football”. The documentary-style show will focus solely on the Bruins as opposed to two teams like it did last season with Cal and Arizona State. According to Pac-12 Networks Insider, The 30-minute show will be “capturing the ins and outs of their lives, both on and off the field”.

The series, which will start in September, will follow everything from the start of fall camp and even go where no camera has gone before… just ask head coach Jim Mora, Brett Hundley, Myles Jack and Eldridge Massington.

Jim Mora: “It’s an excellent opportunity for us to showcase our program + tell compelling stories, stories that maybe some aren’t privy to.” — Pac-12 Networks (@Pac12Networks) April 28, 2014

Myles Jack told #TheDrive cameras will sometimes reach dorms. On Hundley: “His room will be vacuumed; it’ll smell nice. No worries there.” — Pac-12 Networks (@Pac12Networks) April 28, 2014

As for Eldridge Massington’s dorm? “His room is filthy. You don’t want cameras in there.” #TheDrive — Pac-12 Networks (@Pac12Networks) April 28, 2014

Last week, Coach Mora was on Fox Sports Radio’s AM570 in Los Angeles on the ‘Petros And Money Show’ and was asked about it. He was hesitant to answer but did say this:

I don’t like cameras in our locker room, I don’t like cameras in our meeting rooms, unless they are UCLA cameras.”

In Mora’s defense, the information about the series was probably not ready for public release. Well now it is and the Coach has a whole new take on the situation.

Last words from Mora: “Let’s get an Emmy or something, huh?” If you insist, Coach. — Pac-12 Networks (@Pac12Networks) April 28, 2014
