Ecstasy, weed, alcohol abuse, and hazing. Letting thugs completely dismantle one of the nations most prestigious and prevalent programs. The days of Stansbury and Renardo Sidney seem awfully tame compared to the widespread thuggery that Coach Howland allowed on his watch. Winning takes care of everything, right..?

The recent downturn in UCLA basketball can be blamed on coach Ben Howland losing control of his program when a group of prima donna players began to rebel without consequence
quote:
The magazine said it spoke with more than 12 players and staff members from UCLA's past four teams for the report. It cited numerous anonymous former players and other sources associated with the program alleging widespread fighting amongst teammates and players intentionally injuring others during practice, drinking and smoking marijuana before practices and using Ecstasy at off-campus parties.
quote:
"Guys drinking, guys doing drugs, guys not taking practice seriously, guys fighting ... You won't find that on the Pyramid of Success," one player said, according to the report, referencing the philosophy embraced by late UCLA coaching great John Wooden.
quote:
"We spend a lot of time dealing with issues of hazing," Guerrero said, adding that he never had any players come to him with their concerns and that he speaks to the players often. "The one thing we have probably fallen short of is bullying and that's very concerning.

Many of those deeds went unpunished, according to the report

Looks like Howland will fit in well with Dak and the other thugs and tPOSs in Starkville.
They all need to take a mission trip with Coach Freeze and learn to give back to the community instead of fighting, smoking weed, committing felonies, wearing board shorts, and getting drunk.

The one who never had a problem with rabid drug abuse and hazing issues

I think State, because of their pathetically juvenile need for attention and relevancy in the SEC, has stepped over into the dark side.

This is the reason Mizzou passed on him.

Don't worry....I am sure when the time comes you can steal LA Techs head coach.

It'd be a step up from a Clemson middle-tier assistant, that's for sure

Congrats on being better than Rick Ray.

Seems like there was a Sports Illustrated article some years back that mentioned a few of these things and Howland was not portrayed in a very favorable manner by that as well.
My point is that this is not the first time these accusations about him have been made.
