Following potential 2015 draftees

How the hell is UCLA so horrible every year with so many prospects projected to be and actually drafted in the NBA?
 
I'm starting to view Lyles as the proper recipient of the Vonleh hype

I wouldn't write off Vonleh yet. Too early to tell.
Same reason I ridicule Otto Porter in his injury plagued rookie season. Even if it was tempting with Cy pimping him pretty hard.

UCLA was horrible last year?

Shut the **** you ignorant ****. Kyle Anderson was a monster last year and did very well in the Tourney. You ignorant.
 
UCLA was horrible last year?
28-9 with 3 first round picks in (supposedly) one of the strongest drafts in years(only Michigan had as many in the whole draft) and out of the tourney at Sweet 16.
Out of context it's not horrible but when you consider the talent they had, I'd say it's pretty bad.

I said nothing about the individual players' play. I was commenting on the team and their inability to capitalize on major talent.

This year they are even worse. They have another potential lottery pick in Looney, another potential first rounder in Powell, and are even worse than last year.
 
and you do?

UCLA is a west coast team so they never get publicity. hence the feeling they have done nothing.

Yeah, I've been watching college basketball my whole life, before it was just prospect scouting for Jazz picks.

NBA talent doesn't equal NCAA success. Completely different things. And talent is subjective. UCLA doesn't have much legit NBA talent outside of Looney (who is a very raw talent). UCLA doesn't many great upper classmen besides Powell, and Powell is just meh (especially offensively). So unless you think Bryce Alford is a stud, UCLA is playing about how they should given their talent and age.

UCLA has had AWFUL coaching. Done very little with a lot of talent. There.. everyone wins.
