Seattle Times' Larry Stone: "Time is Right for Mora and Huskies"

Passion

For Mora, it’s now the moment of truth. He is the perfect man to succeed Sarkisian, in many ways a godsend for UW athletic director Scott Woodward. It’s the job Mora has pined for his whole life – until two years ago, at least.

To paraphrase Bo Schembechler, it would be, in the wake of Sarkisian’s departure for perceived greener pastures, a Washington man coaching Washington....

....That’s what Woodward will have to overcome — Mora’s growing attachment to a program nestled in the recruiting hotbed of the nation, where he is increasingly becoming the major player.

But that heart-on-his-sleeve energy is also the Huskies’ greatest friend as they pursue Mora, who fulfills their wish list on so many levels. His coaching experience is vast, and unlike Sarkisian five years ago, Mora won’t have to undergo a learning curve at the college level.

UCLA not only took care of that, but helped reveal what many had long suspected: That Mora is uniquely wired for the college experience, from recruiting to motivating impressionable young men who respond viscerally to his fire and brimstone.

Mora might well decide the best place to continue to do that is at UCLA, a program on the rise nationally, and sure to open up its resources to keep him.

Or he might listen to his heart, tugging him toward the job he always yearned for.

I don't care how or why we get Mora - 5 years ago would have been better than now but so be it.

But all the "press" who now have discovered Mora after having their collective heads up Sark's ass so far they were peering out his pee hole can blow me.

"UCLA revealed Mora could recruit and motivate"

Fuck you.

Anyone with an ounce of sense would know that.

Reading that article was difficult; the first pic to the right of the column was of sark and his big neck wattle.

Pro-Tip; advance to pic #2 (hint: its Mora) then proceed with the read.
