From the basketball courts to the locker rooms to the players lounge to the training room inside the new $35-million Mo Ostin Basketball Center, the Bruins are bopping to a variety of beats.
“It’s like you’re in a studio,” UCLA coach Steve Alford said Tuesday at the Los Angeles Athletic Club, before the start of the Southern California Basketball Coaches Tip-off Luncheon. “That’s what Mo wanted to do. He wanted to tie music and basketball together. … It’s like the best sound system you could have.”
Ostin, 90, is the record executive and UCLA alumnus who was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in the non-performer category in 2003.
