Mick Cronin is fed up with his UCLA basketball team.<\/p>\n
After the No. 22 Bruins lost to No. 24 Michigan, 94-75, on Tuesday, a confounded Cronin blasted his team\u2019s performance and character in a fiery postgame rant. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s really hard to coach people who are delusional,\u201d Cronin told reporters Tuesday night after the homestback. \u201cThe hungry dog gets the bone. We got guys who think they\u2019re way better than they are. They\u2019re nice kids. They\u2019re completely delusional about who they are.\u201d<\/p>\n
UCLA (11-4, 2-2 Big Ten) has now lost three of four, including two straight conference games.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re soft,\u201d Cronin said. \u201cIt\u2019s crazy. It\u2019s every day, and I\u2019m tired of it. It\u2019s every day. I have the most energy of anybody at practice every day. I\u2019m upset with everybody in that locker room. My assistant coaches and my players.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cronin even called out some players by name. <\/p>\n
\tMick Cronin went OFF on his players following their loss to Michigan \ud83d\ude33\u201cWe\u2019re soft\u2026 Every day, I have more passion and energy in practice than anybody else. I\u2019m tired of it. It\u2019s a joke\u2026 The truth of it is, it\u2019s really hard to coach guys who are delusional\u201d pic.twitter.com\/abGQdPkfQN\u2014 The Field of 68 (@TheFieldOf68) January 8, 2025 <\/p>\n
\u201cWe can\u2019t get an offensive rebound,\u201d Cronin said. \u201cIt\u2019s like a five-point game, and Kobe Johnson just has a guy take the ball from him. Same thing with Sebastian Mack \u2026 There was a few [missed rebound opportunities] with Kobe and Mack. Huge. Backbreaking. And you have inside position. So, don\u2019t tell me you want to win.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cronin added that top guard Tyler Bilodeau started the game by giving up 12 points on defense and \u201cgot dunked on three times.\u201d<\/p>\n
Michigan shot an insane 53.6 percent from 3-point range and 61.5 percent overall Tuesday. <\/p>\n
The Bruins coach added that he\u2019s far too credentialed as a coach to be dealing with this.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t need to do anything else. I have almost 500 wins,\u201d Cronin continued, bewildered by his team\u2019s performance. \u201cI\u2019m only 53. You\u2019d think I am coaching the Lakers. It\u2019s a joke.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cronin concluded the media availability by saying he is \u201crunning on the court to get guys to pressure the ball and play hard.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m literally out on the court,\u201d Cronin said.<\/p>\n
Cronin has been a solid coach for UCLA since coming over from Cincinnati in 2019. <\/p>\n
He led UCLA to the Final Four in 2021 and back-to-back Sweet Sixteen berths in 2022 and \u201923, although UCLA missed the tournament last year.<\/p>\n
The Bruins come to New Jersey to face Rutgers on Jan. 13 after playing Iowa on Thursday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
