In April 2018, Bartow was hired by UCLA head coach Steve Alford as an assistant coach to replace the fired David Grace. On December 31, 2018, Bartow was named the interim head coach after Alford was fired in the middle of the 2018–19 season. The Bruins had begun the season 4–0 and ranked No. 17 in the AP Poll, but they lost six of the next nine and finished with a 7–6 record in nonconference play, closing it out with four straight losses. Under Bartow, UCLA opened conference play 2–0 at home against San Francisco Bay Area schools Stanford and California. Emphasizing the team's speed and athleticism, he had the Bruins play more aggressive, trapping and applying pressure on defense and attacking on offense by running on both missed and made baskets. Six Bruins scored in double figures against Cal after five reached the threshold against the Cardinal. In their 13 non-conference games under Alford, UCLA never had more than four double-figure scorers.
Bartow compiled a 10–10 record as interim head coach at UCLA, including a 9–9 record in regular season Pac-12 games. The Bruins defeated Stanford in the first round of the Pac-12 tournament before losing to Arizona State in the quarterfinals. Afterwards, Bartow stated that he was not interested in having his interim tag removed, and expressed optimism that UCLA would "hire a very good coach".
