LOS ANGELES – Despite going through the worst season in his UCLA tenure, Coach Jim Mora said recruiting hasn’t taken a hit this year.
Certainly when he brings out the helicopter, it doesn’t hurt.
Mora went to four high-school games Friday night via private helicopter to see potential recruits. The coach said it was the same helicopter former Lakers star Kobe Bryant used to jet around the Los Angeles area.
Although Mora said he feels the helicopter is “a little pretentious,” he said the recruits love it, so he would hop on again.
