With UCLA academic requirements Mora needs to look at Standford as a model. He needs to recruit on a national level. He needs to hire assistant coaches that can recruit nationally, not just Southern Cal. Some of the players that could get in SMU and ASU may not be able to get in at UCLA academically.

Hiring great assistant coaches wasn't the problem in Neuheisel's era. Chow and Walker were good starts, just as Mora's hires are good starts. Where it leads will be the key difference.

I'd think USC would want UCLA to get better. Better competition makes everyone better.

Good Luck Coach Mora!
