Great Job Zach! Go Bruins!

Follow the detroit lions motto, grit

Go Bruins

Am very happy with foster recurting class an what hes doing at ucla 4s up baby let's here at that 8 clap 👏 one time lets go bruins

Last year Cronin had players who could play offense and a couple of players who could play defense. They problem was they were all different players so he had to substitute different players for offense or defense. This team has players who can play offense AND defense. So now, theoretically, he can keep the same players in the game without mixing and matching lineups all the time.

Ultimately how players fare in practice will determine how much they will play, it’s easy to assume they will all play to their potential and contribute but we thought that last year with the Europeans and look what happened.

If any full court press worked;it would haft to be the one John Wooden used to go 32 and 0(in 1964!!!!!!!!!!!!!).

Too much analysis. Play the games. Travel will be the biggest factor.

I like the incoming talent this year much more than last year. The portal players have already proven they can play. It is just a matter of Cronin getting them to play together given they are all new to each other. It should be an exciting season.

Skyy Clark will start at UCLA at SG and probably lead the team in scoring…

Should've used a thumbnail of Kobe Johnson in UCLA gear (ie recruiting photos). I wanna hurl every time I see $UC

We the fans can only SPECULATE right now. I’m curious to hear how the practices go. Johnson will get a role because he plays defense and you don’t win unless you can defend. But I’m not as high on him as you are. Stefanovic is an ideal 6th man, so he was tasked with too much last season. Other than a reduced role, I have no opinion about him going forward. Excited for next season but do we have a STAR? The Bruins an NBA talent to go deep into March Madness.

Kobe jhonson a stud on both ends

Great show Zach,but I think you have to concider mr Kyle alot higher on the list as well as sky Clark these 2 are the 2 impact players the others will be great roll players! Very excited for this upcoming season

Sell tickets to the practices…… They will be AMAZING!

On Behalf of UCLA Canada! I am stoked for this podcast

Welcome to the Big Ten... Go Badger

Being nice...they have yet to play a game. The odds are stacked against them, so any loop ne that buys the kool-aid that foster I a the answer is a touch unpragmatic. It's ok to be happy and optimistic but unlikely they even have a winning season next year.

Good luck with those mid-west winters. Bundle up

Let's goooo Bruins! 💪

I think the NCAA with all the institutions need to come up with a new way of handling athletes, scholarships, and the NIL. I believe it’s unfair to give scholarships to athletes who are not going to stay at the University and graduate. Plus receive money. Well, a scholarship is not enough. Whatever happened to having an education? I feel the whole athletic situation has made a mockery of an education. What should be done, The NFL, NBA, MLB, and the WNBA should create farm clubs for those athletes who are pursuing a professional career in their given sport. And those who decide to take a scholarship have to sign on for four years. Otherwise, I think it’s unfair to those athletes, who want an education, but most likely aren’t going to make it at the next level. Isn’t an education with anything anymore?.

I believe (UCLA) needs to make changes at the head coach positions in women’s baseball. Replace the current coach with Lisa Fernandez. Men’s baseball needs a change and some inspiration. Definitely men’s and women’s track and field. Where are they? I believe women’s basketball could stand to change at the head coach position as well. She’s good, but I don’t think she’s gonna take them to the championship. They always lose lose focus and it’s an ongoing problem for the current coach. Women’s volleyball gets there, but they can’t finish. What happened to men’s water polo?

Campus stadium at UCLA would solve their attendance issue. Even if it's just like 40k to 50k capacity, though it's difficult to happen.

Going to take a while. To get used to saying UCLA in The Big Ten.

We need to keep it real. Foster will need some time to grow the program and improve his recruiting outcome. Maybe 3-4 years.I can only imagine that he wants to make UCLA relevant as when he played in the late 90’s with Cade McNown and company. What a great time that was in UCLA history. I’m in AZ now,but making my way to the Rose Bowl this year. No doubt…. Let’s support Our Bruins.

TBD. Lets see if Foster can win some games. That's the bottom line.

A bit of a trim (on the sides mostly) on the haircut and beard with a nicer tee or shirt would look sharp.

I was happy when UCLA darkened the blue down several notches on their uniforms. Looks great with the gold and white.

When I lived in SoCal, there were a few years during fall Friday nights when the air/breeze would carry the PA stadium announcer’s voice several blocks away with, ‘Foster the ball carrier”, “Foster on the carry.”, “Touchdown for the Tillers by Foster”, over and over and over again.

Say Madden's name again 😂. #4'sup

Yep great hire

Bro, let’s get an episode to commemorate the late and Great Bill Walton. Just seems right 💙

Just shows how terrible of a recruiter Chip was.

The love and passion for UCLA football already separates DeShaun Foster from Chip. Recruits notice

where u been brother? hope everythings good

Great bill Walton rip

Let's see what Cronin makes of his new roster after summer workouts. We all know that in order to play for Mick, you better play defense. Hopefully these incoming shooters can be consistent scorers. Proven players such as Johnson, Stefanovich, Kyle, and Andrews might have the edge in starting, with the other guard spot open for a Mack/Clark duel. If Bilodeau is a "Bona-fide" fouler (testing Cronin's patience), then he'd be better off the bench. I used to watch UCLA basketball practices in 1971-75, and observing Coach Wooden stressing "arms up" on defense (which made Walton so special), I would tell Aday, "!Brazos arriba!" It would make him seem 10 feet tall...! Good luck Bruins!

A team overflowing with talent

Not the sooners, its the oklahoma state cowboys. Cheers, from Dallas, go Bruins!

I don’t see how you get any harmony on this team next season….with at least a dozen good players, many of whom came to UCLA expecting to play, there are going to be many unhappy players sitting on the bench. It’s a weird dynamic, but there’s just too much talent … could backfire.

Trent Perry as the 2nd string 1 is absurd

This is all speculation. We haven’t seen any of the new players play. Last year, we were hyped-up thinking we had two NBA one & dones. What did we really have? Exactly. So, next season’s starting lineup will begin to take shape over the summer when the players are playing pickup games together. Andrews would be the bettor’s pick to start but remember , he’s not a natural point guard. I’ll add: I’m not crazy about your projected starting five. Mack wasn’t very good after that Utah stunt when he maliciously forearmed a guy. Kobe Johnson is a trOJan and can transfer back as far as I’m concerned. I’ll try to overlook that “blemish” on his resume but I don’t apologize for hating SC.

Andrews, Harris, Johnson, TB, Kyle III Back ups: 1. Clark 2. Mack 3. Lazar 4. Dailey 5. Mara

Yo my boy Dylan is heated, coach may start him but don't matter if you end up playing 15-20 min a game...Cronin is the man said it stamped it before u guys knew he was about to whip a white boy from Xavier, LOVE U COACH... Street named after him before he is done at UCLA!!!!!

Freeny is a better shooter than you think . He should not red shirt. They will all battle for minutes.

Dylan is not a lock to start. Every position is up for grabs. Practices will be brutal.

Lots will play a lot B4 Xmas. Dylan is the only lock to start. Coach Mick will need time to decipher who he can trust. Concur with Yoxsy on this point: those who defend and protect the basketball will play more.

Mack? You got to be kidding.

This is a huge surprise;I last heard he was going to Troy land?????????.If true it is a very good recruit and great things to come!!!!!!!!!!!.

You can't make Foster a better coach by tearing down Kelley. I dont DGAF about Kelley; if Foster is gonna succeed its about what Foster does, not what Kelley didn't do.
