A fellow alum, a friend of mine told me recently what Jarmond said regarding Kelly. Our AD was careful with his words but the impression was that the administration is aware of the dissatisfaction and disenchantment among the fan base. With the prohibitively expensive buyout clause expiring, it provides flexibility for UCLA to consider its options. Regardless, next year is the year something might happen. Among us, we can talk about any UCLA sports program on this thread or any other bruin thread. So here is a heads up for you on a coach only an annoying few support.
Cronin is 14-2 coaching this year, has coached the team to be undefeated at home, undefeated on the road, has them ranked in the top 10, and according to Kenpom has them in the top 10 in offensive and defensive efficiency. "Get your act together, Mick" is perhaps one of the dumbest comments I have ever read here. Get your act together Evan.
Not what I saw or heard from the postgame. He was pissed about ridiculous shots for no reason. He was mad about "bad 2nd half defense" although IMO holding a team to 32 points in a half isn't really bad. Saying that he needs to get his act together is a ridiculous statement. He is 14-2, not 2-14. If he was a consistent losing coach, then go ahead and say that crap and you wouldn't get any pushback from me.
So does his spelling. Tse, not Se, is my last name. My UCLA undergrad professor once told me the initials for Toronto Stock Exchange are also TSE. So does my family own it, he asked jokingly. I laughed. This was one of the highlights in my freshman semester at UCLA.
I thought I share this interesting tidbit of my time at UCLA on a dreary rainstorm battered morning after in Southern California. Unfortunately, we are again waiting wearily for yet another one approaching this weekend.
Ths professor kept up with me over the years even after I returned to Wisconsin for grad school. He and his wife, coincidentally a Wisconsin native, attended my commencement when then Vice President Dan Quayle handed me the PHD diploma.
In case you want to know, Badgers just hired a football coach from Cincinnati. Luke Fickell is the name. He is, in every way, a feisty hard charging coach similar to Mick Cronin's style in basketball. UCLA better be ready for him in fall 2024.
In the 2000 decade, Wisconsin beat us twice in the Rose Bowl game. I straddled the fence, my friend. When Wisconsin scored I cheered. So did I for UCLA. The badger fans a
...... The badger fans around me were annoyed, nonplussed. Then after the game, at an Old Towne Pasadena restaurant bar packed with loud, happy badger fans, my wife told a guy my background. He teased me and said we do not allow dual citizenship. LOL ! It was fun.
You said that UCLA basketball played poorly so Henry and I blame Chip Kelly. WTF? How am I supposed to interpret that? Chip wasn't being blamed for the poor basketball.
A win is a win...in January at least. Get your act together Mick!
You said it to the wrong coach.
Wut?
You should be saying that to Chip. Who can't even coach a victory against a middle of the pack ACC team.
Buddy, let me buy you a tequila ! Lol
!!!!
Oh look itтАЩs the anti chip sycophant
Oh look, Steve got butthurt.
Chip Kelly sucks. Period. Can't even coach a victory against Pitt who was missing a bunch of starters.

This is a basketball thread is it not?
Oh boohoo.

Ignore the noise of an annoying few.
Lol Mick literally admitted in the post game press conference that he did a shitty job coaching that game
Not really. He was pissed off at the selfish play. It's funny how you kiss Chip's ass but you criticize Cronin.
Another tequila is coming your way, buddy.
and he blamed himself like a real man. Great coaches don't pass the buck. Who is criticizing Cronin???

Absolutely Nobody:
mgibby and Henry Se: ucla basketball played poorly so let's blame Chip Kelly
Evan, your reading comprehension skills are garbage. I didn't blame Chip Kelly for UCLA Basketball playing poorly. You're a damn troll.
So does his spelling. Tse, not Se, is my last name. My UCLA undergrad professor once told me the initials for Toronto Stock Exchange are also TSE. So does my family own it, he asked jokingly. I laughed. This was one of the highlights in my freshman semester at UCLA.

Henry, yup. Fickell already has beaten Chip twice. He's a damn good coach.

wow, look who needs the reading comp work. Didn't say you blamed Chip for basketball. Went right over your head!
