Quarterbacks face a special burden—being to compared to arguably one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history, three-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady.

Quarterback Brett Hundley calls UCLA football's connection with San Bernardino, California, "a love-hate relationship."  Since head coach Jim Mora arrived before the 2012 season, UCLA has held its preseason camp some 80 miles east of its Westwood campus at Cal State San Bernardino.
