UCLA camp not going well

[HuskerFowler]

But the lack of discipline continued and Mora launched into a explicative-filled tirade and halted practice in the middle of the 11th period. The team normally goes 12. Mora huddled the team together for more scolding before sending the players to the showers.

That was a few days ago, which I shouldn't know, but I've been obsessively watching ucla videos since there's a 55% chance I'm going to the game.

This, is coaching 101. It is an acting job. Not that they were not screwing up, but its an acting job.

Ya but what would people be saying if Bo did this tonight, we would probably be concerned about our team. I would rather hear whats coming out of our camp....confidence.

i remember Bo saying things like this his first couple years, lack of focus, lack of discipline. I know its good coaching, just glad this stuff is coming out of their camp and not ours.

Bo has done this. In the form of, "Everyone runs till one person from each position pukes." I remember Niles and Prince (or was it Niles and Dennard?) made it a personal competition and if I remember right they both puked just as they were leaving the field.

Maybe, maybe not. UCLA has a reputation for being soft. This is the same place where the seniors had a 'skip day' for practice, and Mora is the first guy to put a stop to that. UCLA has tended to be a school that folded when someone punched them in he mouth, like USC routinely does.

see my post above, i know Bo has done this, im glad he doesnt seem to have to, or atleast hes not saying it in the media anymore, and i havent heard it anywhere. Sure it could happen on a personal level if a player is slacking, but doesnt seem to be a TEAM issue like it used to be and thats a good sign for less of a team letdown, or showing up flat imo.

My thoughts, sure he was pissed. But they had about 10 minutes left, this was like a coach going nuts to get a T in basketball. It is an act, sure you are pissed but you know what you are doing.

 

I have seen it while I coach, it goes like this

"Watch this, I am going to get on the team on this play, then I am going to make the entire team run"

 

Hell, truth me told, I have had coaches say this BEFORE practice.

Do you think the current leadership of the Huskers would allow slacking? I think the leaders on this current team would shut that kind of crap down immediately.

Ok, is this "playoffs" Mora?

 

Or the Falcons' "I would take the UWashington job even if we were in the playoffs" Mora (that got canned for it)

Wonder if Fuller's thinking he made the wrong choice?

You be the judge...

 

"Devin Fuller continues to struggle with the pace, accuracy, follow through and release. He's adamant about playing quarterback and is not resigned to switching to another position. Mora seems to like what he sees in Fuller, who doesn't figure to be in the mix for a backup spot, much less a starting role."
