-> Jim Mora’s connections on the West Coast are still paying off for UConn. Mora was a walk-on defensive back and linebacker at Washington from 1980-83, and Scott White, who coached Parham in the linebacker room at San Jose State, served on Mora’s staff at UCLA from 2015-17. Mora also recruited a number of players from Parham’s high school, Long Beach Poly, who put in the good word for him.
“They always told me that this is a great man to come play for and he treats people the right way, you know his NFL connections,” Parham said. “So I just wanted to come be a part of this family and they welcomed me right in.” <-
