You Can’t Blame McMaster for Coming NCAA Disaster

It’s hard to say who’s going to be more to blame for the coming NCAA disaster: UCLA players or Jim Harrick. Certainly, this is the most obnoxious collection of “diaper dandies” since the late, unlamented “Fab Five.”

Either the players need more time to get “geeked up” for a game, or they’d rather “force something” than be a “non-factor.” Either the refs aren’t fair or the fans don’t respect them enough. They all dribble too much, grin too much, make too many hot-dog blunders and watch way too many NBA games.

Of course, the players are merely callow; the coaches don’t have that excuse.
