UCLA head coach Chip Kelly has responded to criticism from the father of quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, who blasted him on Twitter after the team dropped to 0-3 following a 38-14 loss to Fresno State on Saturday.
"I have no response," Kelly told reporters on the Pac-12 teleconference on Tuesday, according to ESPN. "I mean, everybody's entitled to their opinion. That's the great thing about sports: When you win, people say good things, and when you don't, people don't say good things."
Michael Robinson, Thompson-Robinson's dad, called Kelly a "million dollar coach who bares (sic) no responsibility" in response to a prominent UCLA blog.
The freshman quarterback has been thrust into action after starter Wilton Speight was injured during the team's opener against Cincinnati.
Kelly provided unwavering support for Thompson-Robinson despite his father's critique.
"I love Dorian. Dorian's awesome to coach. If he makes a mistake, it's a one-time mistake. I've said that about 100 times about him so far."
The Bruins are 0-3 for the first time since 1971.
