"out of town colleague" = Kim Grinolds

If the impossible happened: Sark is fired, Mora hired as HC, what would Kim's angle be? He obviously has a hatred for Mora, mostly because those who are on this site wanted Mora as coach, and goes out of his way to make excuses for his butt buddy Sark. I'm sure there would be no ban on bashing the coaching staff and "being negative"

He would spout some bullshit about how Mora has changed, and that Mora's intensity is a good fit for the program after Sark. When he would get called out by posters, it would probably go a little something like this. "Some of you need to take a deep breath. I never said Mora would implode. I said he "could" implode. It really ticks me off when people just make stuff up. I like Jim."

He would say, "Jim would be the first to admit he has matured from his younger days... Sark created a great foundation and Jim's forceful personality is going to take this to the next level."

ICGAF about Kimmy, hearing that would be music to my ears. However, just my 0.02, but I get the feeling that Mora really is at home there. He's building a power in LA, great SoCal weather, great lifestyle for those in his income bracket, his folks are close by to be with the grand kids, a fan base that appreciates what he's doing, and he's smack dab in the center of the hottest of recruiting hotbeds on the west coast. His chances of winning conference titles are great, and he's in as good a situation as you can get on the west coast for the kind of national media attention that lends itself to winning national titles. Frankly, unless Dan Guerrero is a total fucktard and refuses to pay him, he'd be nuts to leave. UCLA has found their Terry Donahue.
