Wow is right. Good coach. Wonder if its health or burnout.

Wow...
You think Mora is here short term? That doesn't fit what he has been saying about how important a commitment is to him.Mora, however, has been awesome and I think we got the better guy, even if he is here just one year
Next year there will be another 20 jobs available and if he shows anything notable the other programs will come calling....You think Mora is here short term? That doesn't fit what he has been saying about how important a commitment is to him.
I don't see this as a stepping stone job for him...but I could be wrong.
Idk, he denied the Texas and Washington job while at ucla. If he loves a place he stays. He doesn’t seem like a one and done guy. But we will see.Next year there will be another 20 jobs available and if he shows anything notable the other programs will come calling....
Agreed. Said he wanted to be at UCLA forever. Atl, Seattle, UCLA...was fired, never left on his own. Sounds like he could be around for a while with success. Wants to see his young assistants get those opportunities.Idk, he denied the Texas and Washington job while at ucla. If he loves a place he stays. He doesn’t seem like a one and done guy.

Right? Also how much money is enough money. He’s gotten so much buy out money you can tell he really doesn’t care/ get swayed by it. He just isn’t the traditional guy. And even if he gets UConn turned around I don’t see many other programs going for a 61 year old guy. Brian Kelly has been the oldest coach hired.Agreed. Said he wanted to be at UCLA forever.

It absolutely is a stepping stone job but if he leaves in a few years that’s a good thing - means he got the team back on the right track.You think Mora is here short term? That doesn't fit what he has been saying about how important a commitment is to him.

Brian Kelly and Lincoln Riley just showed that every job can be a stepping stone job. But the way Mora speaks just makes some think that he could be around for a while.It absolutely is a stepping stone job but if he leaves in a few years that’s a good thing - means he got the team back on the right track.

I just don't see it. He may have me snowed....but you don't go on shows and talk about making a commitment...and explain why you didn't leave UCLA because of honoring your commitment to recruits..and then leave your next job after a year of two. And...he said he was going to get a Husky puppy....unless it's northeastern... Washington...or northern Illinois...I don't thing he is leaving before four years...lolIt absolutely is a stepping stone job but if he leaves in a few years that’s a good thing - means he got the team back on the right track.
That money and perks is ridiculous anyone taking that. That’s why P5 is so important you can make rash decisions and be protectedBrian Kelly and Lincoln Riley just showed that every job can be a stepping stone job. But the way Mora speaks just makes some think that he could be around for a while.
He definitely won’t leave for another job after next year and probably the year after based on the rebuild job. I don’t think another school will come calling if he wins 3 to 5 games next year obviously and 4-6 games in 2023. It’s the third year if he shows he was able to rebuild the team to the point of 7-8 wins I can see him leaving and I would be ecstatic because that would mean he took a dumpster fire and turned it into 7-8 wins in three years!I just don't see it.
