It’s abundantly clear that Chip Kelly and company need a shot in the arm, and King might be the one to do that. The offense, minus the win over Washington State, has been abysmal in Los Angeles, and needs to turn it around quick to find a winning formula.

Many people think Kelly may be past his prime coaching, but with a player like King, it could open up a whole new dimension to the offense never seen.

What’s the benefit to King? UCLA is the same record as Houston now, and the Cougars probably have more national respect. But, he gets the chance to spend a season in LA, get noticed by scouts and play defenses such as Utah, Washington and Cal.

If King is looking to get drafted (which he obviously is), UCLA is a great opportunity for him.
