Former UCLA Coach Steve Lavin just talked about the Bruins’ ‘El Matador’ defense in its 89-69 loss to Villanova today and is now involved in a deep discussion on his own changing hairstyles.

He is also rating Villanova Coach Jay Wright, Minnesota Voach Tubby Smith and Louisville Coach Rick Pitino as the best dressed. ‘Dapper Dandies,’ he calls him in kind of a rip-off of Dick Vitale’s signature ‘Diaper Dandies’ moniker for young players.

This is the kind of basketball analysis basketball fans want to hear on ESPNews.
