re: UCLA has a LOT of guys outstanding

They are showing steady improvement under Mora. If he keeps recruiting the way he is then they will be a pretty strong team that competes for the PAC-12 championship and BCS bowls every season. Can't say they aren't improving their attractiveness by winning more games and showing improvement. The only negative to that whole situation for UCLA is if Mora gets offered and NFL job he will bolt in the middle of the night and that's a for sure.

Haven't sent to many into the nfl. Haven't done anything in the last 2 decades. That area has always been attractive. Why is
Football attractive all of a sudden?

The same argument applied to LSU in 1999. What did Miami do prior to 1983? FSU before Bowden and on and on. This is how programs get built, a new coach comes in and starts recruiting good players.

However, UCLA has over 20 guys in the NFL currently. Anthony Barr projects as a top 5 pick. QB Hundley also appears headed for the early first. and there are another handful of guys that look to be drafted.
