College Hoops Friday Recap: Bruins Lack Energy in Loss to LMU
In all honesty it shouldn't come as a surprise that UCLA struggled with an in-state non-conference opponent, the very teams that most in the fan base expect the Bruins to simply roll over regardless of their level of interest. But in recent seasons it's become more of an issue as the Bruins haven't been talented enough to simply flip the switch, and there was another hard lesson to learn in the LA Sports Arena.

Jon Teitel's "Big Dance" Interviews: Belmont head coach Rick Byrd
As we get closer to the NCAA Tournament, CHN writer Jon Teitel will spend some time with players or coaches of teams who have made their way into the field of 68. Today's subject is Belmont head coach Rick Byrd, whose Bruins completed an impressive run in the Atlantic Sun with their conference tournament title game win over North Florida on Saturday.
