Off with his head.
This is Ben Howland. The first ever UCLA Bruin Coach to take more than 1 team to the Final Four and not get a championship.
The Bruins scored 63 points.

Don't tell me defense wins championships, Ben Howland has had a hell of a defense for a long time. Ben Howland's teams are consistenly almost great. Maybe even great.
But not the greatest. Julie Neppl (lord love her) has provided kind words. But kind words are not enough you evil evil Ben Howland. Back to Pittsburgh with your hustle and your defensive proess. How could you raise our hopes high for a 3rd time only to have them dashed on the rocks of the final four. You have been given grace periods, your own players and time. Now you should be banished.
As Glinda said to Elphaba in the Wizard of Oz. Be gone, you have no power here.
Poor John Wooden. You've probably killed him.
