There was offseason turnover at positions such as tight end and linebacker that will require UCLA to find new faces to fill the void this season.

It was a Monday, Nancy Fairley recalls, the first day she and her husband, Patrick, opened Scotland Yard Pub in Canoga Park in 1988 to a rousing business — one guy sitting alone at the end of the bar nursing a Budweiser. He was an odd man, Nancy says, just sitting there eyeing the woman tending bar, never saying a word. Maybe they should close early and get this guy out of there, she thought. It wasn’t like they were doing a great business. One customer, one beer all night. At this rate, she and Pat would be out of business and back in Scotland in no time. The guy at the end of the bar came back a few nights later, and did the same thing, but now the bar had a few more customers, and the he didn’t stand out as much. This went on a few more weeks, then he stopped coming in. A few weeks late

Meanwhile, students in the class can turn in projects and track their progress along the way.  Then, when the Google Classroom class is over for the semester or school year, it can easily be deleted or archived.  If you're an instructor, you can archive any of your classes — this is essentially a way of saying the class is over, but preserving all the materials and items.
