HM: Mick Cronin, UCLA
It’s no secret that it's been a rather difficult year for Mick Cronin’s group. Standing at 13-11 (8-5), the Bruins are far from the NCAA Tournament picture but have picked up some steam as of late, going 7-1 in their past eight games.
Given the recent hot stretch, it’s certainly plausible that Cronin would opt to stay put. After all, UCLA is one of the best jobs in college basketball.
On the other hand, given the overall tumultuous direction that season has taken both on the team and Cronin himself, it's possible Cronin could entertain such power-five offers closer to his Midwest roots.
Mick Cronin’s name is one to keep an eye on as the carousel starts to spin.
