Firing watch.

Sources are reporting that Ben Howland is going to be fired from his position as men’s basketball coach at UCLA.

Howland has a 233-107 record in 10 seasons at UCLA. He took the Bruins to three Final Fours and won four conference championships.

The team went 25-10 this year, and lost on Friday to Minnesota.

The Tampa Bay Lightning (wait, they play hockey in Florida?) fired coach Guy Boucher.

Boucher, who led the Lightning to the Eastern Conference final in 2010-11, his first season, is 84-62-19 in two-plus seasons behind the bench. Tampa Bay, which seems as if it will miss the playoffs for a second straight season, is on a 7-16-1 skid this season after a 6-1-0 start.
