Looks like Mobley's backed out of his original commitment to UCLA and picked Arizona over UCLA. This isn't particularly surprising, since there had been some rumblings ever since he didn't enroll that he was looking elsewhere.

Shame though, since we have a lot of need at DT, both short-term and long-term.

No surprise

He had a lot of classes that he took at Ohio St. (and passed) that didn’t transfer to UCLA for whatever reason and admissions were making it very difficult on him.

As others have mentioned, it appears to be academically motivated

Mobley said he would be unable to fulfill UCLA requirements before December, meaning he would miss a second season. He can be admitted into Arizona next summer.

"I didn’t know it was that bad," Mobley said. "Credit wise, it would be impossible to get into UCLA."

Arizona, he said, "has different rules. I can get my regular AA and enroll."

Good luck to Mobley

As Rye said above not much of a surprise.
