>> Also, I am not a fan of Coach Mick calling plays from the sideline. Like he is playing chess and moving pieces on the court. I prefer the players know what to do rather than being instructed in real-time. What if the crowd is too loud and the players cannot hear the Coach? Unless Coach doesn’t always do this? Anyway, not a fan of calling plays from the sideline in real-time.

A few years ago I was about 6 rows behind the UCLA bench at ASU.
Often Tyger was bringing the ball up the floor desperately looking for the play call, but Cronin was too distracted screaming at other players. Seems like it slowed everything down, and obviously frustrated Tyger. Perhaps this could a factor as to why Dent has been so disappointing? Slowing down his game to wait for the play?
