I like watching our offense better than keeping up with this cluster.

Kind of a dick move to have us fly up there expecting to come back with a signed contract and then not follow through.

I’ll also add that’s this is exactly why we can’t be in this situation again and again. Our mistakes at the highest level have created a toxic combination of questionable management and legit frustration from fans, making UF a concerning destination for the first time in 40 years. Everyone of them should be beaten with rods.

If he knew beforehand that he wanted to speak with UCLA first, he could have to told UF officials over the phone. Now, if they just showed up unannounced for a house party, it is all on them.

FootballScoop tweeting added confirmation: "Florida took their shot. No deal yet."

Advantage UCLA.

Not to mention that inexpensive housing market in LA.

Some how I don't think that will bother Kelly. I see him as a one bedroom walkup kind of guy.

It's possible we went up knowing he wanted to talk to UCLA but figured we'd go try to close the deal.

Something to think about...If UCLA knew Mora was on his way out, who is to say that someone on the inside at UCLA didn't contact Kelly a few days ago, or even yesterday to try and get in his ear, and convinced him not to sign with UF until they could speak with him first.
