At the end of the 2016 UCLA Football season there was some talk that head coach Jim Mora could potentially be fired. Of course a hefty buyout and some potential hesitation at the AD level to make change all but ensured that Mora would be back for another season.
Make no mistake I’m not going out with my pitchfork and torches against the Mora camp. I think he’s done some great stuff for the UCLA Football program. The most physical evidence of what he’s been able to accomplish is the new Wasserman facility that finally puts the Bruins on the same facility level as the Alabamas and the Oregons of the college football world.
