I just think Katz dislikes Miller and isn't going to generate any sort of positive attention for our program. We have to win games, period. Winning will compel these haters to give us our due, and it will be glorious. I will never understand why sports writers seem to hate Miller... But here we hav...

Why isn't enfuego banned? what does he bring to this forum besides pissing people off? does anyone want him here?

Too many chicken littles in this thread.

Bosy Billups' comments on this make my skin crawl, but not nearly as much as Dick Vitale's do. What an embarrassment that guy is. Whom does he think he is fooling? Oh, for fuck's sake... I find myself ageeing with Bruins now? Most of us lurkers have come here to find out some news, not to hear that...

every top 50 program for the last 25 years has paid for the vast majority of their top players. the top, top programs pay for a much higher percentage due to the fact that they get a higher percentage of top players -- its been a know practice and somewhat accepted for as long as i can remember, an...

I don't ever recall a person staying silent who was innocent. The program is getting hammered, mocked and abused. Will be forever know as #apayersprogram. (That slogan is a victim, for sure). Miller needs to say something. Saying nothing looks like calculation. Like he's wondering who knows what an...

It is official: Pitino is out. This is going to get ugly. And not just for Arizona (don't be surprised if the 2018 recruiting class disappears from decommits), but a number of the individuals and entities that are being indicted by the DOJ could conceivably try to make deals, and expose much greate...

and then, at the end of all of this... I am supposed to care if players got...money...for their skills. That's the real issue here.

Thanks 'rado fan. No kidding. We haven't seen them show their faces around here in quite some time. Serious weak sauce, as if this fan base needs the "help" with information.

This is not just the NCAA knocking on our door. This is a basketball staff member and assistant coach arrested in a federal bribery and corruption probe accused of recruiting players by paying them. And any assertion that Miller didn't know certainly doesn't come close to fitting the straight face ...

Jwsisliving

I just can't understand the optimism here. Miller had an assistant caught on an FBI wiretap funneling multiple players to agents and discussing cash payments for commitments. That's textbook NCAA show cause stuff - in the past, a lot of schools can get "caught" and get off lightly because the NCAA ...

Too Soon Take: Feel really bad for Book. He make a mistake, yes, broke some laws, but the consequences will be far more dire then the action. Not like he got someone hurt, or he was even malicious against a person. Thought he'd make a quick buck in a return favor, but that the kid would probably be...

Jwsisliving

Can't you guys enjoy anything? So much over-analysis, criticism, 'I would've done this better', and just generally ragging on players (it's like their good games and good qualities don't count).

Just sucking the joy out of the game.

Jwsisliving

Culture problem? Is the environment really that bad that kids will leave when they likely shouldn't? Or has Miller recruited the kids with poor decision making? Something is definitely going on. Hopefully this is enough of a shock for Miller to take a hard look at how things could evolve. It's a do...

Trier is such as dick. Frankly he deserves the laughing emojis for how he fucked us in the tournament. Trier is such as dick.

Humbly will eat crow. Let's see how he does with a whole season. Hopefully he'll commit to learning some d in the offseason and look for an open man now and again. Glad he's back. Doesn't change my opinion that he's a mercurial player. And I do take the good with the bad and reserve the right to co...

I'd much rather him go to MSU, but what the fuck ever at this point. umm what :shock: you must be joking. are you saying you'd rather have one of the top rated recruits go to MSU than us. He's a premier frontcourt player, we're probably losing CC, most of you have been bitching a lot about Dusan, a...

Jwsisliving

Dusan was an important contributor for us in the tourney. 17, 13, and 12 while shooting a good percentage is nothing to sneeze at. I've been down on him at times but there's also been plenty of times where he's been one of our most dependable scorers and low-post threats. When the perimeter shots ar...

Plus Duval will play in a more open offense. With Arizona, they usually have 3-5 of the best talent on the floor (most of the time), yet they don't play like they do. There's a reason elite PGs don't want to come to Arizona and run this offense. Not very fun. can we keep this to recruiting info and...

If Riseandfire coached we would've been to the final four every year

Coaching is so easy anybody can do it, even armchair quarterback trolls.

I'm not concerned with Romar taking recruits with him, but kids decommitting because their recruiting assistant went elsewhere has happened in the past and that would be my concern.

Lead recruiter for Ira Lee, Alex Barcello and Emmanuel Akot. Do they waiver? In any event, congrats. As long as Miller is still coaching here and we are still the U of A, do you really think they would back out because an assistant got his shot at coaching a mid-major (something that I don't believ...

Rumors of Bowen's HS coach being hired at Illinois or DePaul as an assistant and that may lure Bowen to whichever school hires him. That's such a cheap tactic. Almost cheating. If you're paying someone close to the recruit I don't see how that's all that much different from paying them (especially ...

One of Bowen's teammates just commited to Creighton. Hopefully that's less of a factor and Creighton getting bounced out of the tourney in the first round is more of one (they could come back but they ain't looking that great against an 11th seed). Real impressive showing :roll: Hopefully Bowen pick...

While not ideal, what is the honest worst that comes from doing a 2 for 1 with Duke or Kentucky or Kansas? The lost revenue for hosting a crappy game like North Texas? You aren't going to lose coaches or recruits or respect from it. I'll task you with the mission of convincing the AD and Sean Mille...

Jwsisliving

Time to switch from cbs. Of course they pick gonzaga. 9 times out of 10 they'll pick the higher seed. We've won all our revenge games and haven't lost to any team twice. I don't see that changing vs gonzaga.

And gonzaga just lost to byu. pretty sure we're better than byu.

Jwsisliving

Gary is a dumbass. Of course he's goes with the popular pick even though we get a rematch with pjc and trier playing. And gonzaga may not even make it out of their side. Couple of tough teams that could knock them off.

Jwsisliving

Biggest difference in the turnaround in this game is Dusan not playing. I hope we see less of him going forward. He's been trash lately.

Jwsisliving

hopefully it didn't help them that on his visit Michigan State got destroyed by Michigan. And no commitment from him on the visit or afterwards. that should be good for us right?

Now you're dropping in after 11 point wins and calling them potential upsets? Average margin of victory is like 14+ in league games. um RPI 194 team that ASU just smoked came in, played a simple zone D and held us to 14 damn points in the first 3/4 of the first half and yes led at halftime I call t...

You keep talking like your job has any relation to what Miller is doing or like you know better how he should be conducting himself.

Temper tantrums :roll: Give me a break. Personally I think we are real lucky to have him and I wouldn't want him to change anything just to spare some people's feelings. Maybe its just me but when I saw him get upset during the Washington game it fired me up and made me feel proud. That's the kind o...
