UCLA head coach Jim Mora said he wanted to wait until Aug. 16 to make his quarterback decision, but apparently he's already seen enough.

On Friday, Mora released a statement saying redshirt freshman quarterback Brett Hundley will be UCLA's starting quarterback.

"All four quarterbacks have raised their level of play significantly since my staff and I took over, and we are excited about all of them," Mora said in the statement. "That said, Brett has consistently demonstrated the qualities we value in a starting quarterback and is an outstanding leader who commands the respect of his teammates. He has shown excellent decision-making skills, and his accuracy and timing continue to improve with each practice. In addition, he has shown the mobility and creativity needed when a play breaks down."

UCLA practices next at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday in San Bernardino.
