Yeah, I've been a bit surprised by the condemnation of Mora as a coach. Which year can people identify in which the team underperformed its talent? UCLA has had good, but not outstanding, talent in most of its three years...and has performed as a good, not outstanding, team. The exception was this year, when virtually all of its outstanding talent got injured, forcing a true freshman QB to carry the team. As I've alluded to before, that's usually not a plan for success. He's done fine.

I think it mostly comes from that fact that he can't beat Stanford. It sure does look like he's been out-coached by Shaw pretty much every year.

I suspect all UCLA wants him to do is beat the Trojans.  Everything else is gravy.  He did for three years but not this year.  If he fails next year his seat will get hot.  My source, UCLA equipment mgr.  impeccable.
