I did read somewhere Mora deleted his Twitter Account. I know with recruits if they announce they are staying off social media or if they alter their account it is typically one of the first signs they are going to flip their verbal commitment.....

A college coach deleting his twitter might be a sign Mora is leaving since social media is a vital recruiting tool these days..... or it could just mean his wife caught him tweeting at co-eds.....

Yup, generic UCLA Head Coach Football account lolz. The question is did he create it, or did the UCLA Social Media Management team?

Interviewing with the Jets

He's also already had preliminary "phone" interviews with the Raiders and 49ers, though that remains unreported.

EDIT: Link to what Polish Leppy is referring to <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Per <a href="https://twitter.com/BruinReport">@BruinReport</a>, Jim Mora will interview today or tomorrow for the open New York Jets head coaching job: <a href="http://t.co/07knMDXOo1">http://t.co/07knMDXOo1</a></p>— Ryan Kartje (@Ryan_Kartje) <a href="https://twitter.com/Ryan_Kartje/status/552209829918302208">January 5, 2015</a></blockquote>

It's too bad Marrone seems to be the leading candidate for the Jets and that Mora is down the list some for San Fran. Would've been great to get this clown out of CFB.

It'll happen sooner or later but sooner is preferred.

Thought this quote was interesting from a blogger for the Jets:

I don’t see why Mora would be a favored candidate. Jim Mora’s name has been brought up in NFL personnel circles frequently in the last few months. Maybe too much.
The buzz in the football community has been that Mora is looking for a way out of UCLA while his stock is high after going 3-0 against USC in his first three years. After three solid UCLA campaigns, Southern Cal’s removal from probation will quickly evaporate any advantage that Mora has gained with the Bruins in the Golden State.

Mora’s interview with the Jets might be a way for him to raise his profile in NFL circles and done as a favor by Ron Wolf, but we’re not about to take Mora’s candidacy that seriously beyond the interview until someone gives us a reason to do so. Mora’s work in Seattle and Atlanta are likely to leave a bad taste in many’s mouth as a head coach.

Hah... probably wasn't supposed to leak... phone is probably blowing up and he's backing out because he knows the job is going to Marrone.

I'm not hearing enough to make me feel he's a strong candidate for any NFL job.

@BruinReport: We're now hearing that Jim Mora will not interview with the New York Jets. NFL teams are contacting Mora, but he now has no interest.

While I would not be surprised to see him return, recruit control in full effect.

Again, its a matter of time before he's back in the NFL. He's getting word out now. He's also selling high on himself.

I'm still so on the 'enemy of my enemy is my friend' train with Mora... so long as he's at UCLA and keeps hurting SC more than us... have at it hoss.

I see a "rules don't apply to me" attitude out of Coach Mora. Wonder if his day will come.
