Even coaches who are 16-5 overall and 4-4 in league play can be furious with their team. Arizona coach Sean Miller went off on his team after losing to Oregon and seeing the Wildcats 49-game home winning streak come to an end.
He said the Wildcats are "a collection right now of guys that are independent and thinking about a lot of things but certainly not thinking about what we're doing and what I'm talking about.
"This isn't tennis. This is basketball. There's accountability on offense and defense, and you win as a team and you lose as a team. I'll stop right there."
Arizona, which doesn't have star freshman guard Allonzo Trier, rebounded to beat Oregon State 80-63. So, the rant worked for at least a game.
