BERNSTEIN Director of Football Relations KEN 2Nd Season (4Th on Staff) NORRIS Miami '10 • 2013 COACHING STAFF BIOS • JIM MORA Head Coach 2nd Season Washington '84 On December 10, 2011, former Atlanta Falcons and Seattle Seahawks head coach Jim Mora was named UCLA's 17th head coach in school history. In his fi rst year, Mora guided the Bruins to the 2012 South Division Championship of the Pac-12 Conference and matched the school-record for wins by a fi rst-year coach, with nine. The Bruins, who played in the Holiday Bowl, set numerous offensive records during the course of the 2012 season, including establishing a new school rushing leader, in Johnathan Franklin, and several passing marks achieved by Brett Hundley. On de- fense, Anthony Barr emerged as one of the most dynamic performers in the country in his fi rst season as a linebacker and led the nation in sacks for a good portion of the year. Eric Kendricks led the conference in tackles, ranking 11th in the country. Four players were selected in the 2013 NFL Draft, including defensive end Datone Jones in the fi rst round by the Green Bay Packers. Mora, a former NFC Coach of the Year, came to UCLA after spending part of 2010 and most of 2011 as an analyst and contributor for the NFL Network and the NFL on FOX. He brought 25 years of NFL coaching acumen with him to UCLA, including four years of NFL head coaching experience while at the helm of the Atlanta Falcons (2004-06) and the Seattle Seahawks (2009). Mora took over for Mike Holmgren as head coach of the Seahawks in 2009. He had served as assistant head coach and defensive backs coach for Seattle in the 2007 and 2008 campaigns. The Seahawks went 10-6 and fi nished fi rst in the NFC West in the 2007 season and won the Wild Card game in the playoffs. In his initial season as the head coach of Atlanta in 2004, Mora directed the team to an 11-5 record, becoming just the eighth rookie head coach in NFL history to win 11 games and the 11th to bring home a Division title. The Falcons captured the NFC South title and earned an appearance in the NFC Championship Game for only the second time in franchise history. Mora was selected as the NFC Coach of the Year. The Falcon's defense improved from a league ranking of 32nd in 2003 to No. 14 overall the next season, fueled by a league-leading and franchise record 48 quarter- back sacks. Atlanta topped the NFL in rushing in all three of Mora's seasons as head coach. In 2006, Michael Vick became the fi rst quarterback in NFL history to rush for at least 1,000 yards in a season. Mora had joined the Falcons following a seven-season stint with the San Francisco four-year playing career as a defensive back for the Huskies. While at UW, Mora had 49ers (1997-2003). He spent his last fi ve seasons in San Francisco as the defensive the opportunity to be a part of two Rose Bowl teams as a player (1981-loss to Michi- coordinator.
