This is looking to be the worst season of micks career at ucla. This team is not getting better this season. All this while under the first season of an all mick team. This is what ucla will look like because mick can’t recruit.

Mick definitely missed on recruiting at home. And the focus on overseas players has not worked out despite all the hype. Their is no rhythm due to lack of defined roles. This is a team that I doubt will make the tourney.

In the world of NIL, Cronin can’t recruit because his toolbox is empty.

Sorry but no… 5 star players can get their own nil money. If they really wanted to play at ucla for mick, then they would figure it out

Cronin could have done a better drop with roster construction in terms layering longer term players, but only 3 contributors from last years team weren't his recruits. You act like he can't land anyone.

Who were those three players… not giving credit to mick for recruiting Jaime. He was coming to ucla already. Singleton who was the only three point shooter cronin has had, he did not recruit singleton.

Tyger Campbell… so, your flagship recruit is Jaylen Clark? Because Amari bailey certainly didn’t produce much of anything until the tourney, and adem bona while a freakish athlete certainly isn’t making any strides in my view. 20 minutes and fouled out while shooting 2-4? Until you can tell me who he landed… the only reason he took Mara is because he had potential, but there certainly wasn’t a need for him on the current roster as he doesn’t really fit. I’ll just throw it back, you’re acting like he’s landed lots of solid contributors

you are trying REALLY hard to find issues with Mick's recruiting and not doing a very good job. What are you trying to prove?
