    Jim Mora Fired at UCLA

    Prepareth

    I bet Chip Kelly goes to UCLA.

    Can blend in in LA and doesn’t have to glad hand with the same pressure as an SEC program.

    Will have a domino effect though that starts with Florida and will work it’s way all the way down to Ole Miss

    Should also make A&M think twice about firing Sumlin unless they are 100% sure Fisher will take the job.

    Can get a better coach next year while Sumlin wins 8-9 games in 2018.

    Wasn't expecting that. Think he'd consider moving "up" to Oxford?

    Chip knows that area of the country he's gotta be interested.

    To make it worse, today's Mora's birthday. I think it'll be Chip as well

    UCLA isn’t a premier job. They’re behind USC in their state and arguably Stanford at this point. Kelly isn’t going there.

    Correct on your points, but I think he would go there.

    Watch out for Sumlin as well going there.

    UCLA is a very tough job.

    If many more jobs come open, C34 may get a call.

    Are there enough viable candidates to fill all these jobs?

    Some teams are going to fire a better coach than they hire

    Sumlin may hold on anyway if they beat LSu

    Sumlin will throw his name in. If Chip takes it, he doesn’t care about winning nattys.

    Unless they can get Fisher, I just don’t see how they upgrade this year.

    I like how OM is claiming Taggert is their guy.

    Sumlin could also be throwing his name in to create leverage with A&M. Same thing Malzahn could be doing with Ark

    Morris is who A&M wants.

    SDS is saying they offered it to him. Same article also says he already declined.

    If TAMU fires Sumlin I have a feeling they are going to be really upset with what they end up with as a head coach. If you want a good up and coming coach there are going to be a ton of vacancies out there.

    UCLA, Florida, Tennessee are already open jobs. Then you have Arkansas that's probably going to make a move next week after they lose to Missouri. Still got the chance that some other jobs open up. Gonna be a lot of rebuilds at decent programs open to coaches, but not enough for them all to snag really good head coaches.

    Debatable. Seems like the exact same guy to me.

    A&M wants Sumlin gone and Sumlin wants out. He’s going to go after a job.

    Hey, that’s A&M. They’re different.
