I only have one question after UCLA’s 19-point loss to Michigan. Why did it take Mick Cronin 18 minutes to figure out that the Bruins should be full-court pressing?
As usual Cronin was screaming at the officials and blaming some of his players, but if the very average coach was looking for blame, all he needs to do is look in the mirror.
This loss will cost UCLA come March.

Dylan Hernandez justifies Mick Cronin’s embarrassing sideline antics by saying that his approach works. Indiana justified Bobby Knight’s embarrassing behavior for the same reasons until it became untenable to have him publicly representing the university. John Wooden would likely be embarrassed by Cronin’s style.

So Dylan Hernández believes Mick Cronin blaming the players with his “everybody is at fault but me” coaching philosophy at UCLA “is a proven motivating strategy.”
Oh really? What was the score of the Michigan game, 94-75 with UCLA on the short end? That doesn’t look like proof to me.
It’s time for UCLA to show Cronin the door and hire someone who is worthy of John Wooden’s legacy.
