“Really?” Cronin asked incredulously. Advertisement“He’s back to his old tricks with guarding you and beating you up in the lane,” Brey said with a laugh. This will be UCLA’s first chance under Cronin to learn about the resilience it takes to win on the road, even if the Bruins aren’t facing a vintage version of Brey’s Fighting Irish (7-3). The Fighting Irish had a chance to take the lead in the final seconds before Hill materialized from behind to block a shot by Prentiss Hubb off the backboard. Update: Brey said UCLA reached out to him through intermediaries to gauge his interest in the Bruins’ coaching vacancy that Cronin filled earlier this year.
