I think that the portal and NIL are why Roy Williams and Jay Wright left the game.

Despite roster turnover endemic to college hoops, UCLA seems more beset by the challenges of continuity and blending classes than other programs, and faces that as a challenge EACH YEAR. (We've seen CMC teams are slow to mesh, but develop they do.) He was angered that the pundits left the Bruins unranked preseason. He took it personally that they dismissed the talent he assembled, and his track record. Who is in the right at this early season juncture?

I didn't hear his post-game presser with Josh and Tracy, but by all accounts, he must gain his composure before the team can gain control of the court.

All very good points. We shall see how this season unfolds. But when all is said and done, at least we have the prestigious LA Bowl to look forward to...
