UC Irvine got 2 free throws with 2 seconds left, game tied, and he misses both.
UCLA better hope Shabazz can play this season.

ben howland most over rated coach in sports history, he suprassed bill parcells for that honor.
remember when howland was at Pitt and was the talk of the town? came to UCLA with all these aspirations, then got to a final 4 and a national final (with someone elses players), since then he hasnt done shit. i give him zero credit for the first two years because they won inspite of him not because of him the talent on those two teams was astounding, but they were failures.

3 straight final fours
so not winning one of those is the difference between terrible and a great coach

Agreed. Clear foul, ref just shrugged it off. Pac 12 refs are the best in the country

Big dogs can't win these close games. Either they choke it away or the refs can't bring themselves to call against the big favorite

The refs gave them a chance to win in regulation, not saying wasn't a foul but it is tough to get whistles in the final seconds even at home

UCLA is just a perennially underachieving team. Anyone remember last year. Ranked #17 going into the season, then drop 5 of 7 to start the year. There is no circumstance where I will bet on this team.

Is he back in Europe yet? Howland is to blame for letting Nelson ruin shit. That SI article was insane
