Our QB Situation

Jason Kelly doesn’t know anything. He’s just dude trying to get clicks. He can’t even pronounce our players names correctly when he goes on other teams podcasts. He’s never been ti a practice but claims he’s an “insider”.
As much as you might like to believe that I have ever claimed to be an "insider", I haven't. I went on another podcast and said that I had heard good things out of practice, referring to a report made by Mike Grimala. I am just a dude trying to get clicks for my podcast, wont deny that one.

We'll get another year. Year after? I'm not sure depends on
Mora really wore out his welcome at Westwood. He was run out of town because he sucked as a recruiter and game day coach. He only did well with Neweasel’s recruits.

Fans and donors were boycotting the program until he was canned. Attendance dropped significantly and the monies dried up. They were flying banners to get rid of Mora, and UCLA isn’t any sort of hardcore fanbase. Tells you a lot.

I thought he had good classes but the results weren't matching. Coupled with him being not the easiest dude to deal with was what upset the base?

I could be totally wrong I just thought that's how it went down.

He can be an abrasive dude. But his run at UCLA was better than Odom at Mizzou. He's done pretty well at UConn all things considered.

Scherer actually makes a lot of sense, it would follow the Utah model from Urban to Whittingham.

I’m a hard no on Mora Jr.

Ultimately, I’d like Odom to stick around for 10 years and at minimum would be bowling every season.

Yeah I don't think it's some crazy idea that if Scherer wanted the job Odom would be honest if he felt he was ready/prepared to do so.

I think if asked by Harper he would give an honest assessment.

As for Mora...

I wouldn't love it..But I wouldn't hate it either.

Im of the opinion it's not a decision that will need to be made this year barring some unforseen job opening or a school comes with a Brinks truck.

Not in anyway suggesting it should be done.

Saying if Odom told Harper Scherer was ready to take over the program I think Harper would at minimum trust Odom's opinion.

I'd rather (if need arises) kick the tirescon Jim Mora Jr.

Recruits well. Was solid if underwhelming at UCLA. Is doing pretty well at UConn considering they play an independent schedule.

Last night @Jason Kelly mentioned a banger of a HC candidate with SEC chops and pedigree of winning in the MWC... plus it would piss off the Boise folks..

Why would Odom say that... it's not his job to hire his assistant to replace him... yes publicly he will say he should get a shot somewhere, but if he goes somewhere for $$, it would benefit him taking his staff with him in tack, with paydays for all of them.

Because I think Harper and Odom have a good relationship. I think Odom is a stand up guy. Odom and Michael Scherer are close and if he felt Scherer were capable or ready for a HC gig he'd be honest about it if asked. Or if Scherer expressed interest.

We've already tried the "hiring assistants as a favor to a program legend" route with basketball and it didn't work out too well
