After Mick Cronin got what he wanted — to be tossed in Friday night's eventual 79-61 loss to Maryland — UCLA's coach made a beeline for the locker room. When he got there, Cronin went to his phone and pulled up the Watch Duty app. Cronin was checking the interactive map of wildfire activity to see if the blazes in LA had moved closer to his home.
