Report: Mick Cronin to Be Named New UCLA HC After 13 Years at Cincinnati

UCLA will hope to get its basketball program back on track with the hiring of Mick Cronin as the team's newest head coach, per Stadium's Jeff Goodman.

Ben Bolch of the Los Angeles Times confirmed the report.

TCU coach Jamie Dixon had initially seemed like he would be the team's next head coach, but his $8 million buyout caused the deal to fall through.

Cronin has spent the past 13 years at Cincinnati, accumulating a 296-147 record. Adding in his three years with Murray State, and he has 365 victories at the Division I level.
