UCLA is terrible.
Plain and simple.
UCLA lost at home to Middle Tennessee State last night 86-66.
One would have to wonder how this could affect the Bruins chances with Shabazz Muhammad.

[I]UCLA’s season already feels like its on the brink. It’s been eight years since the Bruins started 0-2. That season was Steve Lavin’s last; the Bruins finished 10-19. Fans are not anxious or panicking — they are full-on freaking out. This awful start puts a threat that 2012 No. 1 recruit Shabazz Muhammad will consider the Bruins. If Howland doesn’t get Muhammad and UCLA misses the tournament this year, is he out? Plenty will make the case he’s a coach who will have gone through his life cycle there. The month of November is a crucial one for Howland’s future in Los Angeles.[/I]
With Shabazz tweeting most of the Kentucky players on a nightly basis, especially when there is a game, one would think the Cats chances of landing the #1 recruit in the nation is improving game by game.
Or in UCLA’s case, loss by embarrassing loss.
