      psst he was being sarcastic. They never won a title

      Given the talent that his final 4 teams possessed you could make the argument that they underachieved.

        Seriously Howland was expected to win with this Westbrook guy and Kevin Love? The guy is a coaching genius, but genius and playing first to 45 will only take you so far. Eventually you need talent.

          Shot-blocking center Anthony Stover was dismissed from the UCLA men's basketball team due to academic ineligibility.

            With the NCAA's new rules about academics and post season play I wonder if this won't happen more often.

              This guy illustrates how asinine it is to say universities take advantage of these guys. The tragedy here is this guy couldn't suck it up and qualify. UCLA would have opened so many doors for him, whether he wanted to play overseas or pursue a more conventional career; he was so fortunate and pissed it away. This guy's profile is the norm; Jabari Parker isn't the norm. The ones who make it to the degree are launched.

                  I'm not sure what you mean. You also have a dumpster on fire?

                    Pau and Marc Gasol's little brother is walking on at UCLA. I guess since he's a walk-on at UCLA who has only 10 players on scholarship should tell you what you need to know about him. Apparently he had little interest in following older brothers until recently.

                      And the best player in the country not rocking a high top fade was declared ineligible.

                        UCLA loses to the Mustangs of Cal Poly SLO. LOL. They should have lost to UCI and Georgia.

                          I don't understand why anyone would play for Howland.

                            Ben Howland has almost stopped recruiting guys who are athletic. This team is the definition of plodders. He really is trying to be the guy that ruins P12 hoops.

                                Howland is so horrible that he has been to 3 final fours with UCLA. He is so horrible that he took Pitt to the sweet sixteen twice, won a coach of the year at Pitt, and won 2 Big East titles.

                                He is so horrible that he has won coach of the year in 3 different conferences.

                                I wish Utah could get a coach this horrible.
