I think Mick is a heck of a coach and does not get the credit he deserves. I also think he could be better, and will need to be ever make a Final Four run.

Consider that he competes in recruiting against schools with much bigger budgets who have access to people who give recruits bags of money, Mick's accomplishments are fairly impressive.

I thought he should have taken him out just for a little bit, just to level his head, but who knows. The thing that bothered me more was how long it took him to call a timeout after Nevada started speeding us up. I dont think he called a timeout until Nevada got in to single digits.. he should have recognized earlier what was happening and tried to put a stop to it.
