Proud alumni like Larry Farmer are pulling for Mick Cronin’s team, experienced and defensively elite, to make a run at the Bruins’ 12th national championship.

“If UCLA is playing a big game, USC, or when they get to the tournament, one guy will make a text message, ‘Oh, man, I’m nervous,’ ” Farmer said. “And before you know it, guys are just chiming in.” That it feels like a possibility that in another 50 years, these Bruins could be honored like Farmer’s were? That’s a testament to how Farmer-like Mick Cronin’s crew is.
