He acknowledged it shortly after he sat down at Pac-12 media day last month, calling himself the "coach on the proverbial hot seat" before anybody had even asked a question.Yet Neuheisel didn't get where he is today without an unflagging belief in his ability to fix any football problem."I'm as excited as I've ever been," Neuheisel said this week before UCLA opened fall practices.

It's been a while that we've been kind of wallowing in a valley, and it's time to figure out a way out of it."Not much has gone according to Neuheisel's plan in the past three seasons, which have included just 15 wins, one bowl appearance, numerous key injuries and a few changes in philosophy.
