"please, please replace him. our program has become one of ridicule where we're often considered a "jekyl and hyde" school. i'm afraid this will be the last memory John Wooden has of UCLA basketball!! "
"Lavin has had enough chances with some great talent. We've had great blue-chip players who could've developed into great college players but never did because Lavin doesn't have the ability to teach the fundamentals that make those players better."
"Keep him on as a recruiter and leave the coaching to someone capable."
""Steve 16" is the worst college b-ball coach in not only UCLA b-ball history. He has run our legendary program into the ground. Please put him out of his misery."
"The 1980s were bad enough. Please don't take us back to the future. Hire a coach with a proven track record."
"lavin sucks cock "
"The pathetic and disgraceful performance of the 2001-2002 UCLA Men's Basketball Team demands that Steve Lavin be terminated as head coach as soon as the season is over which will probably happen this Friday night because I seriously doubt we can beat Miss"
"It's about time. Our program is a laughing stock."
"Lavin's a good assistant coach but not a good head coach. He doesn't know how to recruit. He could be great for a small program but not one of UCLA's caliber and reputation. Find someone with a great reputation and a great track record."
"Please...won't somebody think about the children!"
"Steve Lavin does not have what "
"DO NOT fire Steve Lavin. He brings integrity and a winning attitude to UCLA. He can flat out recruit better than anyone. A few disgruntled fans are calling for his dismissal, but this would be a major mistake."
"Lavin is nothing more than a good recruiter and a slick talker."
"Quart of oil Lavin has no coaching skill and neither does his assistants."
"Lavin has got to go."
"Lavin doesn't coach - rather he pleads with players to listen to his cliche filled directions. No wonder they have tuned him out. These kids have had much better coaching in high school and before. Seems to be a nice guy - but no where the caliber of coac"
"The fans of UCLA Basketball deserve better then Steve Lavin. Steve Lavin may be a great person but he does not have the skills necessary to run a sucessful Div. 1 program. I have been a donor to the UCLA athletic program for 7 years and I am becoming tir"
"lavin sucks...no offense...cant recruit the right players...his players dont improve...underachievers...he sucks ass"
"I cancelled my season tickets last season. Enough! I will always follow the Bruins and force myself to watch every single minute of every Lavin debacle but I can't bear to see it at Pauley anymore. Send this clown back to coaching high school basketbal"
"FIRE LAVIN......BRING IN A COACH WHO CAN TURN THE BASKETBALL PROGRAM AROUND AND GET IT THE NATIONAL ATTENTION IT DESERVES."
"No matter the outcome of the 2002 Tourney, he has to go. And go Bruins!"
"Lavin must go. He has brought down the UCLA basketball program to a point in which it is no longer mentioned with the powers of Duke, Kansas, Maryland etc."
"I appreciate lavin's efforts but as an alumni and a former UCLA student athlete, he is not getting the job done. UCLA has a great history of successful athletics. Lavin has had enough time to prove himself and has failed to maintain a successful program. "
