UCLA head coach Mick Cronin is not thrilled about Saturday’s 8:30 p.m. PT tip-off Saturday against Gonzaga in Seattle.
It will close out ESPN’s lineup of five consecutive college basketball games that day.
“How is that good for anybody?”

Bob Chesney told Wayne Cook and the “Bruin Insider Show” that familiarity on his staff at UCLA is important.
“There’s people that I have to be loyal to that have been loyal to me.”
Now, James Madison OC Dean Kennedy is heading to Westwood with him.

Administrative support and a “commitment” to football were important for new UCLA head coach Bob Chesney as he weighed his offer.
It’s an area that’s been a hot topic in recent years in Westwood. Chesney liked what he heard.

Among the things posed to UCLA LB Scott Taylor, I asked if he was for sure coming back to the program next season. He was noncommittal about his status.
“I mean, that’s not a decision I’m going to give you guys right now.”
But he noted Bob Chesney’s ability to build programs.
