SAN DIEGO -- As Joey Bosa and the San Diego Chargers remain embroiled in a contract dispute that has led to the first-round pick not reporting to training camp, coach Mike McCoy indicated Saturday that the Ohio State product is missing valuable reps.He definitely needs to be out here as a rookie, McCoy said as the Chargers opened camp. Theres no update on his status. [General manager] Tom [Telesco] made his comments the other day, and its the same today. We will just keep working at that, and eventually it will get done.But he needs to be here. I think everybody needs to be here, especially as a younger player for the installations, playing with your teammates -- things like that. We are going to coach the guys who are here, and the players who were here did a nice job today.Bosa is the only first-round selection from this years draft who did not report to camp; he and the team remain locked in a dispute over offset language and the earlier payment of signing-bonus money.?San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers said Bosas contract dispute represents the business side of football, and players understand that.My approach has always been these guys are our teammates, Rivers said. And then its not normal football. There is that business side to it. So its not like anybody in there is upset with him.When he gets here, shoot, hell trot out there and well play like hes been here the whole time.Rivers has first-hand knowledge of Bosas situation, having gone through his own contract dispute as a rookie with the Chargers in 2004. Rivers did not report for three weeks before signing his deal.Of course, that was before the last collective bargaining agreement in 2011, which resulted in the slotting of rookie salaries.Obviously, you want him here, Rivers said. But I also know what its like from that spot. Its not any fun, thats for sure. You try not to watch the sports and news, seeing your team practicing and you not being out there. I know its a hard situation to be in. And when it gets done, it gets done, and hell be here and be a part of it. And from what Ive seen this offseason, hell be a big part of it.Fellow rookie linebacker Joshua Perry said Bosa, also his teammate at Ohio State, will be ready to hit the ground running once the two sides agree to contract terms.I know Joey is eager to be out here, Perry said. Ive talked to him. So as soon as hes out here, I know hes going to come hard and ready to work.Like most players, cornerback Jason Verrett is more concerned about the other 89 players who are at Chargers Park.Its a business, Verrett said. Thats out of my control. Hes going to be here when he gets here. And right now, were just focused on the guys we got out there right now.Center Matt Slauson saw an improving player in Bosa during offseason work, and Slauson expects the rookie defensive end to have an impact once he signs his deal and reports to training camp. But no one knows when that will be.Were just focused on getting better every day, Slauson said. All of that other stuff isnt my area. [I went against him] a couple times [during offseason work].

After managing 43 yards rushing in a 27-21 loss at Washington State last week, UCLA (3-4, 1/3 Pac-12) ranks 126th out of 128 FBS teams with 91.1 yards rushing per game and a comically low 2.8 yards per carry.Hopefully weve come to a point where we can get it fixed, but its an obvious understatement to say its not acceptable and that it hasnt been good, Mora said. Its as bad as Ive ever seen. Thats our issue. It all comes down to that.Only Texas State and Georgia State have managed fewer yards per game on the ground than the Bruins, who are off to the worst start of Moras half-decade in Westwood after three losses in the Bruins last four games. Last weekend in Pullman, the preseason favorites to win the Pac-12 South posted a measly 1.7 yards per carry, providing no help for backup quarterback Mike Fafaul in the rain.These rushing struggles dont make sense on paper for the Bruins, who entered this season with a specific mandate from Mora to run the ball aggressively. UCLAs new offensive coordinator, running backs guru Kennedy Polamalu, has three talented ball-carriers -- Soso Jamabo, Nate Starks and Bolu Olorunfunmi -- running behind a fairly experienced offensive line.Instead, UCLAs line has been bossed around almost every week, and none of the three tailbacks has seized the job left by Pac-12 rushing champion Paul Perkins. The struggles have completely derailed the Bruins season, putting even bowl eligibility in jeopardy -- a shock for a team led by touted quarterback Josh Rosen, who missed last weeks game with an injury.Theres really one issue that weve had, that is something we havent been able to fix yet, and thats our run game, Mora said.ddddddddddddWere playing good defense. Were throwing the ball well, but were not running it well, and when you cant run it, its tough to do anything consistent on offense.With No. 19 Utah (6-1, 3-1) bringing one of the nations best defensive lines to the Rose Bowl on Saturday, UCLAs problem doesnt seem likely to go away immediately. But after using zone-blocking strategies last week to no effect, Moras staff is making even more changes this week to the Bruins rushing attack this week, streamlining its concepts and rethinking certain unnamed strategies.Were simplifying the task, Polamalu said.When Polamalu replaced Noel Mazzone as the Bruins offensive coordinator and play-caller in the offseason, he intended to implement a complex power-running offense. While he hasnt given up, Polamalu notes that the Bruins current offensive line was recruited to block for Mazzones high-tempo passing offense.Its not that theyre not running hard, Polamalu said. Its a scheme, and technique, and those things are what were improving on and teaching every day. I told the guys, `Just work on the little things and dont worry about tomorrow.Even with a late-season surge, the Bruins probably have wasted the sophomore season of Rosen, one of the nations most promising quarterbacks. Mora hopes Rosen will return from injury this weekend, but the coach acknowledges his offense must figure out its running game to have a prayer.I feel like Ive let people down by not being able to get it going, Mora said. But Ive also been in these situations before, many, many times, coached a lot of football games, and theres not always an immediate fix. You have to work through it to find a way. I know its frustrating for our fans. Believe me, its equally frustrating for us. So hang in there, and youll still see some good football.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
