UCLA head coachMick Croninhas been making headlines lately for all the wrong reasons.
During a blowout loss to the Michigan State Spartans in East Lansing on Tuesday night, Cronin took it upon himself to eject his own player, Steven Jamerson II, after what he deemed to be a "dirty play."
Cronin caught a ton of flak for this, especially since replays showed that Jamerson was going for the ball, which admittedly would have been hard to see from the other end where Cronin sat.
The fiery head coach wasn't done there, though.
After the game was over, Cronin joined the media scrum deep in the bowels of the Breslin Center, delivering one of themost memorable press conferencesin quite some time, claiming he didn't care about Michigan State's student section and then chastising the reporter for even asking such a question.
Then, he doubled down and accused the reporter of raising his voice at him (which he absolutely did not).
The whole exchange is absolutely legendary.
Well, apparently Cronin had a few days to sleep on it, and he offered up a very long and sincere apology for (some of) his actions on Tuesday night.
"The last thing I want to do is bring negative publicity to our school."
All kidding aside, it's good that Cronin owned up to what was an honest mistake and that he and Jamerson are on good terms.
