Yeah, not sure how accurate that was. It was a frenzy when that popped up.

Supposedly Gonzaga board is saying Lloyd to UofA.

Damon took a poor Pacific team and made them respectable. Not great, but certainly an improvement in the past few years. Damon has earned the right to move on to a better job, but all the way from Stockton to Tucson? If Damon were not an alum, would we even consider him with his record? No. But who...

I think they should just hire Pastner. He can recruit and if he could get a solid assistant to help him, I think he would do fine. I'd take Damon with JET on staff over Pastner in a heartbeat. And I think Damon is a lousy hire. Would JET stay on staff with Damon? He from what I have seen is a bette...

phenom5

I just don't get why so many people want Lloyd hired. The guy has never been a head coach, just an assistant. What makes him the best candidate? I think Gonzaga's success is mostly due to Few. There are head coaches out there that are more qualified than Lloyd. I am not going to panic like many her...

I will say this- I know RJ has zero coaching experience..... but he would be awesome to have around every day RJ was clearly a Miller fan, I wonder if we didn't squander some of his support over this fiasco too. Cool, we pissed off the one former player that actually puts his money where his mouth ...

phenom5

Goodman can eat a sack of shit So who you got O'dogg? They should offer Lloyd ASAP. Then they should offer Damon if that falls through. If you don’t like either option fine, but you won’t like any of the other options either. They aren’t getting someone you want. Yep. The having a candidate pool of...

Hey E'rrybody. Haven't been around these parts for a minute, but nothing like a dumpster fire wrapped in a shitshow surrounded by a disaster to bring people out of the woodwork. Always be a fan, and will still rep UA and wear the gear, but my fanaticism will die as tweedle dumb and tweedle dumber in...

Depends how you look at the big picture. On April 6, 2009, as an Arizona basketball fan would you have been excited if you knew the next 10 years of results? Zero final fours, a handful of PAC12 titles, 3 Elite Eights, a few really bad NCAA early round exists to substandard teams, and 1 super domin...

Hahaha that was my kid's due date! Wife had a C-section, so we had to schedule it a bit early. Congrats to you as well my man! Due date was 12/22, so he was a little early.

And to think I bitched about pastners recruiting. Which come to think of it is the level of coaching we are looking at...and I can’t beleive I’m going to say this next, might not be a bad stop gap hire to stem the bleeding. Sure we’ll suck and he’s annoying AF, but it might win over enough fans to ...

Interesting post. I love sports in general too much to walk away. But watching this season with my 2 month old son on my lap has really helped keep my anger level waaaayyyyy down.

Wow, the timing of all this could not be worse. ChooChooCat pretty much summed it up. The reality is something like this would be a major step back for the program under solid leadership. Instead we get 2 recruiting classes gutted, the department in huge debt because our ass-clown AD doesn't like cu...

Would you put big money on it?

phenom5

Didn't UA kind of make a half-assed run at Few before Miller was ultimately hired? I mean, sure, if you have a vacancy at a desirable west coast P12 school, you make a call to Few. But at this point, you probably don't put too many of your proverbial eggs in that basket.

phenom5

Maybe Sean Miller is the best bridge coach we can get. If you believe it's the next coach after the next coach that's the truly important hire, maybe this iteration of Sean Miller is the bridge between the two. Miller comes back and rights the ship for a few years, and then can move along with the p...

I get what you are saying, and I agree. Welsh isn't a great example IMO, but the point holds. I'd like to see a more long, athletic big that attacks the glass & defends. Any offensive skill it a bonus, but not an absolute must. Chris Silva @ South Caroline is exactly the type of big I'd like to see ...

I heard 98 loss was caused by liquor. If you have guys like RHJ, AG or NJ you can make pack line work. It doesn't work with guys who can't or won't play high level defense. This is answers the questions for me. Why instill a defense that is so dependant on personnel, whether size or physique? Event...

phenom5

I like how you can tell who the idiots are by calling for a UofA guy. There's no one good enough, or available, or capable, or qualified for the Arizona job except Josh Pastner that is a Arizona guy. Personally I would go after Hoiberg if he's fired, he's still only 45. I would take Hoiberg, and lo...

I love HuggieBear's style of play. But honestly, is UA an attractive destination compared to WVU right now?

I want the Shit Shovels to lose but only in a very particular way. I want them to fight real hard and for Remy to have a great game and for them to lose in the most soul crushing manner possible, and especially for Bobby Hurley to have a major meltdown in front of the nation. I endorse this post. G...

Hate the UK matchup, but otherwise there's no reason this team can't come out of the South. Don't hate the matchup against Virginia or Tenn, or Cincy.

If CSM stays...IF...I think a move to more of a Villanova/ Virginia/ Gonzaga recruiting model may be just what the doctor ordered for Miller. Will be interesting.

If he stays, do we think BWill is back in the fold?

IF not, thoughts on JC or Grad Transfer PGs?

PJ Carlesimo...starting to like that dude. Just said...paraphrasing..."I've known Sean for 30 years, I watched him in high school, coached against him when he was at Pitt...I believe Sean. I am in the Sean Miller camp unless someone can come out with some actual proof, not hearsay."

Can we get a reverse loop of the star spangled eagle boner to close this thread? Only to be re-opened with the original star spangled eagle boner gif if there is a re-commit?

One note about Jay Bilas. I was struck at first about how hard he went into Miller a week ago, and about how he's defending himself and ESPN's reporting now... Then I realized...he's a lawyer and clearly thinks that what he said was about a public figure and can be said without retribution, and he ...

First all of this is still speculation, no one knows for sure which way the coin flip goes. Second Romar is actually a decent recruiter, and the fact is his game has been deeply impacted by working with MIller, I read the interview with him when he was back in Washington and he said he had a "Light...

You keep Romar, you keep some transfers. If you’re Romar, do you love Tucson and coaching this much? Do you think that when Romar was hired he had no clue what was happening? is it possible that he was read in on the possible outcomes and took the job understanding his potential roles. He is lauded...
