CBS Sports college basketball analyst Seth Davis' tweet Thursday night credited UCLA head coach Mick Cronin for the Bruins' recent turnaround from a 6-10 start to the season.

The former Cincinnati Bearcats head coach, in his fifth season at UCLA, saw his team improve to 14-11 this season with its eighth win in nine games since a 90-44 loss at Utah on January 11.

In the tweet, Davis included a remark about Cronin that raised some eyebrows, calling the former La Salle High School standout "a handful sometimes."

One night earlier, Cronin's brother, Dan, appeared to address rumors that Mick might replace Chris Holtmann as the Ohio State head coach.
