"he's got to go"
"Your lame petition will not work. Try sending anonymous threatening email and blackmailing the powers that be into making a change. It almost worked before. My sources say Lavin is out."
"He gets as much talent as anyone other than Duke and does absolutely nothing with it. I feel bad for the studs he recruited and the false hopes Lavin gave them. I wish Tarkanian had three-fourths UCLA's talent. We'd be ranked in the top five. "
"Steve lavin is a good person but definetly not a good cach "
"I hope this helps."
"Can we bring some pride back to UCLA hoops, for God's sake? How has Wooden not keeled over and died from watching the embarrassing displays we put on time and again, playing with no heart?"
"BEst of Luck Steve... Try Cal State Hayward... They need an assistant..."
"Being a USC alum, I actually would like it if he stays. "
"Steve Lavin is the worst floor coach in Division I basketball and UCLA deserves better. Attendance is down, Pauley Pavillion is like a morgue and he has had six years to establish himself as a legit coach. Steve Lavin must be fired to save the UCLA base"
"Steve Lavin has brought down the UCLA basketball mystique and tradition. His lack of control, inability to coach effectively, poor decisions with recruiting, and so on, has been too much to handle the last six years. It is obvious he doesn't deserve the H"
"Although raised in the Bay Area, I've grown up a UCLA fan, and had the privilege of attending this fine university. Unfortunately, it appears the Men's Basketball program has not only failed to raise itself to the national prominence it used to routinely"
"Coach is not ready for a major program like UCLA."
"UCLA needs a coach that can coach at division I. You should have gotten Rick Pitino when he was available!!"
"Lavin must go. He is depriving a poor village somewhere of a village idiot. Next stop....D2."
"Firing him would be the least of my wishes for Lavin. But I guess that is a start. For god's sake we need to it for Wooden's sake. Do you know how hard it must be for him to sit there and have to endure he disgrace of current UCLA hoops?"
"Please end the madness and replace Lavin to bring back the Bruin faithful!!! "
"Lavin is terrible."
"He sucks. I cannot beleive the administration at your school. BTW my email, for any open positions, is TheMan@MSU.edu"
"Please fire him now so that dignity can be restored to the UCLA basketball program."
"lavin should have never landed a head coaching position at ucla in the first place. let's just cut our losses now before he destroys the program entirely."
"i actually like lavin"
