Bogut endorses Giacoletti for another year
While he was spending the weekend at the NBA All-Star Game in Las Vegas, former All-American Andrew Bogut could not escape the news that the UNLV Rebels had beaten his former team in Salt Lake City - sending the Utes to a 9-16 record that ranks as one of the worst in school history.

"Frustrating," is how the Milwaukee Bucks center described it.

But while Bogut suggested that "some guys should be working harder" for the Utes, he also endorsed coach Ray Giacoletti, who coached Bogut in his first year on the hill and led the Utes to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament just two years ago.

"There's definitely room for improvement," Bogut said, "but I think they should still keep him, and give him a chance at least for another year to prove himself."
