Bear Down Wildcats

https://twitter.com/ZonaZealots/status/967254158058270720 So Arizona paid $100k for Ayton but we're all to assume that Bagley went to Duke for a 1-year scholarship. Okie Dokie. I doubt anyone believes that but we need proof and I really hope there is some. I'm now just a bitter fan who hopes multip...

Cleared already huh https://twitter.com/jeffborzello/status/967138713443725312 No surprise. Probably went something like this... Coach K: Did you take money? Carter: No. Coach K: He said he didn't take the money. NCAA: Good enough for us. We figured there was no way a Duke player did anything wrong...

That's pathetic but sadly inline with what the NCAA does. They don't actually care about the student athletes at all and it shows repeatedly.

Just watched Outside the Lines on ESPN and for their "Villain of the Week" segment Adnan Virk went with Trier. Joked about how somebody manages to fail two drug tests in two years and the rest of the crew piled on. Morons It has to be very easy to tell from the test results this is residual from th...

I guess UCONN makes sense given whats been said. Respected basketball school but outside the power 5. Maybe that is less stressful.

DrWildcat

I'm glad some names actually came out. Before this it was just a few schools, including us, and a bunch of speculation. Now these other, holier than thou programs have to answer.

What is the criteria that this being based on? Stats and eye test of who the clear three best players are this year. Eye test? You would have to be blind to think Holiday is the better player. Holiday doesn't have better stats either. I dont think that. I think Holiday is a top 3 player in the leag...

Well this is depressing.

DrWildcat

What a pass PJC. And I thought he was going to get blocked.

DrWildcat

Rawle can't do much of anything this game. So inconsistent this year.

DrWildcat

Fran on these refs. Thank you. Is Larry watching?

DrWildcat

Our guard play is just bad all around. Bigs can't help if no one can get them the ball.

Team coming out ready to go for the second half

DrWildcat

Yes, lets replace Ristic with a garbage player who does nothing on either side. Good idea.

DrWildcat

I'm really interested to see the names of these 3 dozen schools, especially if they're the top schools. Always seems like the NCAA picks and chooses depending on the school how severe the punishment is. If it is really all the top schools will they do anything about it?

DrWildcat

What a weird season. In the conversation for #1 to begin the season. Now we’re on a collision course with the bubble. Yes, we’re in first. Gotta give em props. But anyone feeling confident we’re gonna finish there? UCLA is not a good team. They just wanted that game more. If our guys are struggling...

DrWildcat

You can get by being small if you have a strong frame and can finish through contact. PJC is small and weak which is a horrible combo in basketball. He can't beat anyone off the dribble because his defender knows he isn't going to shoot it. If he does, there a 90% chance it gets blocked. This kills ...

DrWildcat

Pretty horrible and I don't see us significantly improving before March. We will need 6 straight games of great offense to have a chance but at this point it seems unlikely. However, I will still stay up late to watch and hold out hope that this team gets it together.

DrWildcat

Trier is the only starter to play worth a damn today He definitely practiced his jump shot. Awful defensive effort. whats new? The 2 Holiday blow byes in the first minute means Trier's jersey should be retired for those in the know I'm told he's an offensive threat. I'd trade a few points of his of...

DrWildcat

Its comical watching PJC try to make a layup. Can he even make those when no one else is in the gym?

DrWildcat

I really dont think Rawle is a good defender, and he hasnt improved much on that end from his freshman year. Although, trying to decide on who our best perimeter defender would be is basically like closing your eyes and pointing at someone. I agree completely. I'm not sure where the notion that he ...

DrWildcat

Point spreads are not designed to be a straight representation of how much better one team is from another.

DrWildcat

I just don’t think he’s a troll. I think he means what he says. And what he says gets said outside this board. I’m trying to figure out if these zone evangelists know about zone defense. hey you wanted an explanation how a zone could defend 3point shooting, and I showed you how the only zone-exclus...

DrWildcat

Such bullshit. We're being looked at like we're in the WCC, meanwhile, teams like North Carolina have 7 losses at #19 (they'll drop, but Clemson will just replace them). And they haven't even looked good in their wins... Meanwhile, Texas will get talked about as a tourney team at 15-8, having just ...

DrWildcat

Unlucky defines Arizona basketball for as many years as I can remember.

DrWildcat

Well if we had any impressive wins we probably wouldn't be punished as hard in the polls. These other teams at least have beat some ranked teams.

You would think they would at least put one person in an Arizona shirt or maybe the school colors. Looks like a bad copy and paste job to me.

DrWildcat

I hope Byrne causes problems at Alabama. Living here and listening to these fans can be painful.

DrWildcat

Hopefully we replace 2 garbage non-conference games.

DrWildcat

Not really sure what the benefit of doing it this way would be but look forward to seeing who we officially hire.

I believe Salave'a just got a bump to $650k too.

I've never been that impressed with Hurts. He is a suspect passer which is masked in most games due to Alabama's oline/running game. Although, he would be a better backup for Tate than what we currently have.

DrWildcat

Sumlin should hire whoever he feels he can have the most success with and I believe he will. If that is UA alumni then so be it, but they shouldn't be hired just because they're alumni.

DrWildcat

Enjoyed the presser. It wasn't just full of a bunch of generic coach speak. Sumlin comes off as very believable.

DrWildcat

Man, looks like he gave us a good deal. Save money initially why we recover from paying RichRod.

DrWildcat

Officially excited for next year! Is it football season yet?

Would like some clarification as well. It is coming from an NFL guy... Hard to believe anything at this point.

My faith in Heeke is pretty low at this point. About time to just take the wait and see approach.

I guess he will probably retire from there. Maybe it has something...

Just need to hit it by graduation so they slim down after football.
