He didn't play much (I think 120 minutes total in 18 games) and averaged 2.4 ppg and 2 rpg in, on average, about 7 1/2 minutes. I get the feeling that right now Cronin is all in with Booker at the 5, with Bilodeau backing him up. Does that mean that Jamerson is there for practice, perhaps a few minutes a game, and there in case of injury? If so then McLeod would be there for what? Maybe just another body or maybe for practice scenarios as well. Are McLeod and Jamerson redundant?
Perhaps the NIL asking price for McLeod is within UCLA's means? Everything I've read says that UCLA doesn't have a lot of money available. I have no idea what that means. I'm hearing that they are trying to raise more money. I have no idea what that means. I've read that Cronin would like another post and wing. Is that true? Who knows. There's not a lot of transparency here. Maybe something's happening behind the scenes? Maybe Cronin is looking for more guys? Maybe Cronin is through? What we don't know here is a lot. Should he go after this guy? Why not, but I don't think he's going to contribute a lot. Is that what this kid wants for himself? Who knows. Wake me up when it's all over and then I can see what the answers to these questions were. I don't think there are many people beyond probably a very small circle that knows what's happening.
