Sick Mick

Plaschke: Disappearing Mick Cronin melts down amid another UCLA collapse

UCLA coach Mick Cronin isn't handling losing well, and he needs to take responsibility for the Bruins' issues rather than publicly blasting his players.

Lol I was going to post sbout this most recent loss yesterday - Cal’s first Pac-12 win in a year after 19 straight conference losses.

Mick is a douche, publicly selling out his team at every opportunity. He cannot lose enough for my liking.

 

[spiderman]

wow. glad that reporter is calling him out. Cronin needs a psychiatrist.

 

[gospidersgo]

Just perusing some schedules, etc. - how is it possible that it's Jan 8 and vcu has still not played their first road game of the season (only home and neutral).

 

[Eight Legger]

Probably not going to go great for them starting off at Mason this week, either.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

GooMoos 0-15 from 3 and still almost beat the lambs. What a shame.

Oh great, now please don’t let them shoot like the Bonnie’s at the Stu on Saturday…

 

[brooklyn brownstone]

Umass over Lasalle easily.
Saint Joe's falls to 0-2 in league with a close loss at SLU. Good result for the Spiders, as far as A10 standings go.

 

[bullfrog91]

Bc getting handled pretty easily by 'cuse so far...

 

[plydogg]

VCU and LaSalle are tied at 62 with under 2 minutes. Let’s see if the Explorers can finish them off

That would be no.

 

[urmite]

Did URI late eligible player (Green?) mean that much to them? Since then…

 

[spider23]

Yes; that is what I heard, Green has been a game changer for them

 

[SFspidur]

Fordham wins at Bona. 😬

 

[gcarter52]

Fordham wins at Bona. 😬

UMass had a couple of key players out I think.

 

[spider23]

After 0 D1 wins when we played them, Lafayette has reeled off four wins in a row.

 

[RichmondNative]

After 0 D1 wins when we played them, Lafayette has reeled off four wins in a row.

Their announcers during the UR game kept saying they were looking forward to league play, so I guess they knew something. Hard to believe that Lafayette could be the best team in the Patriot League.

 

[brooklyn brownstone]

They were so bad. Just horrid. The Patriot must be a bottom 2 league if they have won multiple games

I did think Buffalo had more talent than a zero D-1 wins team, but they’ve only won one league game and gotten blown out a couple times in league. St Chatman and co. not getting it.

 

[spider23]

Patriot League is 30 out of 33.

 

[SFspidur]

GW embarrassing Mason so far, 25–10.

 

[SFspidur]

Mason cut the lead to 5 early in the second half, but GW gradually re-expanded it from there to take the 75–62 win.

GW feasted on one of the worst OOC schedules in the country and then lost a 3OT game to Fordham in their A-10 opener, but since then they've beaten VCU, Davidson, and now Mason.

 

[brooklyn brownstone]

Good result for Spiders IMO.

 

[Section9.RowD]

glad to see Dayton pulling away .. best for us to Dayton to cruise in 6-0 and ranked in upper teens for our 1/27 match-up which has the potential to be epic ..

 

[GKiller]

Maybe UR is just the worst draw in the conference. Nobody goes to our away games. That's ok should make a little easier to win.

Students back helps. Although still looks like hardly anybody is in LUC's upper section

What is your observation based on?

 

[MDspider8]

Wichita State is currently beating #23 FAU on the road, 59-56, with 11:00 left. Lot of game to go.

 

[SFspidur]

Shockers led most of the game, but faded at the end. FAU wins by 9.

bummer

But do the metrics even care?

 

[GKiller]

What is your observation based on?

The attendance at our away games.

Anecdotal but it feels when teams host us they consistently have attendance below their average.

 

[fan2011]

But do the metrics even care?

probably will improve Wichita state’s NET

 

[Eight Legger]

Shocker.

 

[urmite]

probably will improve Wichita state’s NET

But when will they be 135?

 

[mr.spider]

🤣 Dude, I'm dying over here on that one!

But do the metrics even care?

 

[mr.spider]

Likely. Or at least shouldn't hurt them I imagine.

 

[SFspidur]

They moved up two spots to 143.

 

[Section9.RowD]

They moved up two spots to 143.

Huge .. only 8 more ticks up and they move back to a Q2 loss .. how exciting

 

[spider23]

After 0 D1 wins when we played them, Lafayette has reeled off four wins in a row.

Now 6 wins in a row.
Thinking time to fade them GK??

 

[spiderman]

I used to think the Patriot League was a decent little conference. they've been awful lately. this year they were 26-89 out of conference.

 

[brooklyn brownstone]

It was okay when Bucknell was good and another team or two were decent enough to challenge them. This year…my god. Lafayette is so bad. Really horrible. If they make the playin game, you’ll see me in the betting thread and know I’m going against them.
