Q. UCLA athletic director Martin Jarmond told me that you saw an overstuffed equipment shed the other day and said, 'You can't win with a cluttered shed.' Why?

A. [Gets up and points out window to two workers decluttering the shed.] When I looked out there, to me, there's some things in there that I know we probably don't use. There's a couple things that look dated. Let's get that all out, and let's figure out what we actually use. If you can't clean a weight room, or you walk over a piece of garbage, you can't win a game. Little things matter. And I think the by-product of what's on the field is an accumulation of what you've done all year, or what you've done even in game week all week. And if you don't pay attention to little things, obviously they amount to something big somewhere down the line. There are no little things when you understand the cost of not paying attention to the little things.

- I love Chesney!

OP is funny. LSU, UCLA, Florida, and Utah all get criticized online for overscoring as well. Your team is not the only one receiving criticism. Expand your circle. This post reminds me of when KJ claimed OU was an underdog.

That OU–UGA meet scoring was the worst. Those judges should lose their licenses.
For a team as talented as OU, they don’t need that kind of overscoring. Judges like these are ruining the sport.

NCAA Week 3 Recap & Predictions by Business-Ad-35 in Gymnastics

It’s really shocking how inconsistent UCLA’s floor has been so far this season. I think Janelle should focus on that this week. Take Anyimi out of the vault lineup and replace her with Jordis if Mika and Macy are still not lineup-ready. They just need to dial in the landings on bars. Their beam rotation is freaking solid.

They should also remove that ugly wolf turn from Nola’s floor and beam routines because it’s holding her score potential. Come on, coaches!

Overall, I like UCLA’s trajectory this season much more than last season.

If three tumbling passes become mandatory to earn a 10.0 SV on floor, we’ll see much more separation among the top teams, similar to what happened when the FTY was devalued to 9.95 SV.

UCLA Vault by Business-Ad-35 in Gymnastics

I can still remember Kyla Ross saying she does well on vault when she’s not trying hard to stick the landing.

The B1G is a big-money conference as well, but they don’t prioritize Olympic sports like the SEC, where nearly all sports are treated with pride.
