Indeed Donnie you are

Did tiger really win the masters

Still in awe of the comeback

So sad what happened with Rick Majerus. Gone way too soon. Hired at USC and then resigned shortly afterward. That would’ve been by far the best coach they’ve had. I’ve always wondered what a good coach could do with that program. They have all the same advantages as UCLA, without the lofty academic...

For the last fricken time in college basketball the schools aren't paying the players, the God damn shoe companies are.

Newportcat

If you can have a winning conference record at USC, with the resources at Arizona you should do well You are starting to blend thoughts. By this thought, Cronin should do well since the "resources" at UCLA are 11x better at UCLA, than Cincinatti UCLA is a better job then cincinatti for sure, but no...

Most coaches should do just fine at UCLA

Question though is if Cronin can do better then just fine and be really good

Seems so doubtful

Newportcat

Cronin is a better coach than Alford, so I’d imagine the rivalry could heat up again. Being a better coach then Alford is not saying much I honestly do not see this rivalry coming back in any great degree unless the sport changes. Teams change over too much nowadays so you don’t develop the Hatreds...

At the time in 2009 Tim Floyd was a much better hire then Mick Cronin is now.[/quote] You've doubled down hard on this to the point where you are saying stupid shit for effect Floyd was 38–33 in conference when he left USC in 2009, including the afterglow of OJ Mayo.[/quote] USC is a much harder job...

Newportcat

This team just sucks

At least fire Dave lawn and give Jay Johnson one more year to turn it around but that’s it

This is pathetic

Newportcat

Greg I respect you follow uniswag on twitter

Newportcat

But Cronin is at least as good as Alford, and he's probably going to give UCLA tougher, more disciplined teams. It's not an A-level hire, but it's probably a B/B- level. Let’s say wiretaps were published in January and Sean Miller is on tape talking about money for recruits so UA goes ahead and fir...

Newportcat

Even that tweet is bullshit. Miller paid his players??? No, if any payments were made they were made by shoe companies. The whole inference is bullshit. You could argue that coaches may know of shoe companies making payments to players they're recruiting. But to say a coach paid his players is a fl...

Yet another shitty loss

This team makes it tough to follow

I do think this is very true in terms of why someone like Dusan or TJ or Rondae or Rawle (maybe more just after his freshmen year) I have much more of an infinity for then Trier.

Newportcat

Trier is Marcus Williams with a better pro career. Glorified role player. I will fight you. To answer your question: the 2017 Pac-12 title game over Oregon. Trier carried us to the win over a team that had beaten us badly the previous three outings and that went on to make the FF (with three eventu...

As long as he doesnt do 12 pump fakes before he shoots it I'll take it at this point. I am always hestitant to get...

I just looked through Hazzard's schedule last year, he played 4 games that I saw that would be decent competition (they had an over 200 ranked schedule so there weren't a lot). St Mary's, Oregon, KSU, and Butler. In those 4 games he shot 34% from the field, 30% from 3PTers, had 3 assists total and ...

Yep, I heard it from a couple people. Nothing formal and was a quick pass by Luke

Luke really wants to show Lakers they made a mistake in how they handled this year

MrBug708 wrote:UCLA didn't reach out to Luke haha

Yes they did, nothing formal but they did

Newportcat

Worst season I can remember. Even the spirit of things seemed broken. Kind of started with the FBI thing. Cats did win today 4-2 as Nardi threw 6 scoreless innings. Hopefully this group of Collins, Flanagan and Nardi can be our rotation at a high level next year. It’s sad as women’s team all seem t...

Newportcat

Luke was just the Lakers HC (and didn't do a terrible job), why would he take a college gig after that? He isn’t taking any college job for sure and I think only would take the Arizona job and even then it would not be guarenteed I know he rebuffed UCLA pretty quickly when they reached out to him I...

Newportcat

Will be interesting about what changes are made. We lose Quintana and Cameron and maybe Frazier and that’s a lot but we still should have a good offense next year. Choo said he is bringing in a good class with more pitching and Not sure if Labaut (sp) would come back but we need a lot in this area....

Wow just wow

FYI if you have not been to the masters it’s so fucking epic, very lucky to go last year

I still have a ton of official masters logo golf balls. If anyone wants a sleeve here, PM me with your address and I will send you one

That masters clip was amazing azgreg too

I have heard similar things too in terms of not liking how the recruiting game works I have also heard the only job he would ever consider in college is Arizona given his connections to the school and his wife being from Tucson. Keep in mind though coaching careers in the nba are so short lived. Her...

BR as a 6 man is a perfect spot for him. I don't understand those wanting him to be pushed out if he wants to be here.

Bad loss last night Pitching sucked again At the very least Dave lawn needs to be fired how is this a bad loss? Other than losing at home or losing another game in the 8th inning With poor pitching I just can’t see you point. Cal is a decent PAC 12 opponent. We brought in Vannelle for the 8th who h...
