Former UCLA coach Jim Mora raised some eyebrows in the leadup to the NFL Draft with perceived criticisms of his college quarterback Josh Rosen, but he’s being quite clear now about what he thinks of his future.
On Sunday, Mora took to Twitter to call out those who question Rosen’s talent or commitment, and went as far as to say that the quarterback could prove to be a Hall of Fame talent.
(1/2) Those that question @josh3rosen and his toughs, competitiveness and love of the game are so far off anything I’ve seen in 6+ years knowing this man. He’s the real deal, he has it all, he will be a great one, he will win championships.

(2/2)I’ve had the amazing fortune of being around 24 members of the Pro Football HOF, I believe we may see Josh Rosen enshrined one day. A lot of work to do, a lot of games/championships to win, but he has the qualities to do it. Good luck my friend! @Browns @Giants @nyjets @NFL pic.twitter.com/OnQZOtLvD3

It certainly seems like a change in tune from when Mora was saying that a rival quarterback should go first overall ahead of Rosen. If the quarterback was looking for a vote of confidence from his old college coach, he definitely has one now.
