    So... it's Kim's contention, the players tune Mora in until they sign, then tune him out when they arrive on campus?

    I think I admitted that there have been issues with game management and schemes. But capping the potential of a program after year 3 with the talent level Ucla is building and the coaching changes they've made I think is FS. Also #fuckyonarratives.

    If I do the same in year 3 of Peterson after a 10-3 year...by all means light me up. Quooks have done the same to me on here for my hate of the ducks. It's a message board.

    Consistently winning 10 games in LA and competing in the South year in/year out is nothing to scoff at and is worthy of a certain level of praise... But, they also leave the door wide open to criticism. UCLA is like Gonzaga BB to me... OK, you're good but either step it up and win it all or gtfo.

    Winning 10 games is no big deal now.

    Hope this helps.

    Feel free to shit on achievement all you want to but, the fact remains, MOST teams don't win 10 games. Far fewer do it consistently. The fact this needs to be pointed out to you says quite a lot.

    Not really but, he did win 12 games and achieved a #4 ranking and makes $3.5 million coaching football in a safe situation at a major school.

    I do indeed respect his achievement. You don't?

    maybe not, but he's still one of the most successful college football coaches in history and is rewarded as such financially and is living a dream you never will... I know, right?

    13 teams won 10 games or more in 2014. That means that 10 wins = top 10%

    UCLA isn't little brother anymore. LA is beholden to whoever wins, and UCLA has embarrassed trojan ass the last couple of years. Mora still has a lot to prove though.

    So, put another way...107/120 teams didn't?

    Surprised it was that low. College football was dreckier than I thought last year.

    Until one of those two schools hires a coach that can develop the talent and manage games, they will both continue to underachieve.

    UCLA has developed individual player talent very well under Mora. The weakness of the program is largely schematic and game management. I know the jealously is real with other P12 fans of the LA schools, but I think there is still upside for Mora at UCLA. More talent more depth and the program has the OL pipeline finally rolling after three years of predominantly first and second year starters on the OL.

    SC is a just an average coach away from a juggernaut.

    If Peterson manages a 10-3 year in either of the next two years, we know 81% of this board will be lining up to give him HJs, and won't call it underacheiving. Bias much?
    We've had one ten win season since Poison was a cool band. I really hate to admit it and was on denial for a long time, but Warshington isn't really relevant and hasn't been for a long time. 10 wins is a start.

    Not the case.

    AZDuck can't count. There were 23 FBS schools that won 10 games:
