So much respect for Mick Cronin. Just watched his press conference after the N. Florida game. He knows his players. He knows his basketball. He knows how he is trying to improve each of his players. He is a natural teacher who has lofty expectations of talented "kids" (young men). Not only does he have high expectations but he has the know how and temperament to push his team to get the very best of themselves. You could tell that he was pleased that his team is already responding to the post-Beach tongue-lashing, but there is more work to do (and it's early season). He is everything you want to a college athletics coach. I hope that ten years from now, we still have him as UCLA's basketball coach.
(when I compare to the "I feel like a need shower after listening to Alford" days - I wonder what UCLA did right to land somebody who is the complete other end of the respect-o-meter scale)
We got hit better than 61% from the line. Leaving seven points on the table will cost us down the line.
