How many scholarships should we have to give out for next year?

the whole paying for parking thing really blows my mind still. The reasoning is that all major tourist cities charge for parking and Las Vegas never has so that’s the reason I was given. And they say all the money is supposed to go back into parking improvements. So,when everything has been improve...

I’ll be going to the entire tourney again. Got tickets in section 10. Not the best but not too bad. For those that haven’t been here to Vegas lately, the casinos charge for parking. And if you need to drive to the games, during special events they charge even more at the casinos closest to T-Mobile....

What an unbelievable day. First Miller and now Trier. Great day to be a Wildcat!!

I don’t know where the pre-game activity is going to be this year since Diablos has been torn down. The upstairs was always the hangout for Wildcat fans.

Just got back from the game. Ristic was terrible and seemed to not care. Atmosphere was very good at the T&M. Fortunate to get the win. Just got home too. Good showing of U of A fans as always. Great college basketball atmosphere. Ristic was invisible in the first half. Offensively Randolph played ...

Whatever happens the rest of the game, I LOVE this teams heart!

I've talked to people that bought seats pretty cheap through Craigslist too.

I'm going but I'll get tickets from resale market. Did that last year (first time in Vegas) and it was great. Not sure where we're staying yet, possibly Excalibur. I keep seeing "Days Inn At Wild Wild West Gambling Hall" pop up, has anyone ever heard of it or been there? Dirt cheap, across I-15 fro...

Lots of construction going on inside the Monte Carlo. Being rebranded to The Park MGM by the end of next year. If all the construction doesn't bother you then either that or NYNY are the two best hotels to stay at. Getting into the arena takes some time with what went on here. I've been to a hockey ...

I'm guessing Rick Rickert's mom got some of this money back in the day to make her kid go to Minnesota?

One of my co-workers husband works on an FBI task force and was wondering why the FBI cares so much about something like this when there's so much more important things they could be doing. Got no real answer for her. Is every school eventually going to get busted?

For those who watched at home, was Dawkins fumble call correct? Was unsure at game. Certainly, yelling for him to get down and secure ball, right before it came out. Spoke to two people, not AZ fans, who thought it was a bad call. Very hard to digest this loss, when the win was right there. Great o...

Did you hit the wave pool? Yep, but I prefer the lazy river. On a side note I accidentally left my kindle in the cab at McCarran. I did get it back though. Kind of off-topic, but one of the local news stations did a story comparing prices for taxis, Uber, and Lyft here in Vegas. The taxis were more...

Bring on the Maui Invitational in 2018! Already made plans with the wife and friends to go out to Maui when I found out there's a few games over the same time I'll be there. The wife was real excited and was looking forward to going to a game until I broke the news that Arizona gets to play three ga...

It's a good add. If things hold, we have 4th year junior Jeter, soph Lee, freshman Shareef and any additional people in 2018. That is already decent. And Akot Bol didn't wow me initially, but I've been sold over time. His length is a freak advantage over anyone (sort of like a skinnier Bamba) and a...

Good possibility we could have some NCAA tourney games a lot closer in the near future. Heard from the head honcho that the T-Mobile in Las Vegas is going to be pushing hard to get first and second round games and/or regional games. Not sure how far out the sites are booked but the CEO definitely wa...

I was volunteering at the Derek Jeter Celebrity golf tournament here in Las Vegas this morning. Had to wear one of the tournament shirts but I had my Arizona hat on. Threw out a Bear Down to Kenny Lofton when he came by the 18th green. He looked up, saw my hat, broke out into a huge grin, and gave m...

Was there and not in the upper deck and all I can say is that unless the cats were in the FF that there is no way I would spend money to watch a bball game in a dome again. The view is so far away that you are almost forced to watch it on the video board and i I have to o that I my as well get the ...

Are the stars given out based on how they play and compare to the other players in their high school class? Or is it based on their projections for college? If it's based on how they compare to other high school players then I can understand Parker being a 4*. But if it's based on how he projected i...

The article says Ray wasn't at the P12 Tourney....I thought I saw video of him cutting down the nets there...am I wrong? He came late because he had school commitments. He drove up in time to cut down the nets. I didn't think he was there. They announced each players name prior to them climbing up ...

I had so little hope against Kansas that year that I planned a California getaway up near Carmel that week with my girlfriend. We were in a bar/restaurant eating and I could see the game on from a distance. Second half starts, I'm done eating, and I head into the bar with the big screen leaving my g...

I am not saying there were tons of empty seats but there were some for sure. I upgraded twice but there were empties here and there. If it is 18k it probably had 17.4k Friday and Saturday. Might be splitting hairs but I was not expecting to see any minus a few seats here and there and saw pockets o...

The new arena is very nice but very big. Even the title game was not a full house. Game was sold out. In fact, attendance was reported to be 100 more than official capacity. So I'm guessing if there were empty seats they were UCLA fans who couldn't get rid of their tickets. That jives with what I w...

I know this isn't the proper place to put this, but I have an extra FREE ticket for the Oregon game Saturday night if there's any Arizona fan wanting a ticket. The person sitting next to me isn't going to the game and gave me his ticket. So, the downside is you have to sit next to me. Seat is at the...

For those there, how was the crowd/experience last night compared to MGM? I don't think it's as good as the MGM was. It doesn't seem to have the same atmosphere. There was still a huge Arizona turnout but percentage wise it wasn't as overwhelming as in the past. The upper deck though did look predo...

Anyone know if the teams are still staying at the MGM? I was told that the teams are not staying at the Monte Carlo. I was also told by someone at the MGM that he believes some teams are staying there. He doesn't know who or how many. He's checking on it but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a ...

Is anything expected of Dylan Smith next year or is he just a body for practice that's taking up a scholarship? If I remember, he looked totally overmatched in the Red-Blue game.

I saw in the Wildcat Wednesday that they have a link to deals for MGM property hotels. I Just checked my prices I have access to and I'm able to get the rooms cheaper if you're interested. Not a lot cheaper, but still cheaper, maybe $20-$40 a night depending where you're staying. Prices are jacked w...

Basketball good= reason for fans to show Football bad = why support a program where the fames are over at half. Send a statement with your absence. How about those boo's from the 10000 fans at halftime for RR. Breathtaking wasn't it Was the refs not RR To me it seemed like the boos were at first to...

big venue because i believe mgm designed it to attract an nba team to las vegas, though i could be mistaken. also i think @vegascat mentioned a while ago some sort of credit or membership card that waives the parking fee at the mgm properties - is that right? are there also deals or exclusives at t...

Is it just me, or did prices escalate for everything this year? I didn't go last year, but man hotels are expensive. Oh and where to stay this year? The venue is behind NY NY? The closest place to stay is the Monte Carlo. It's about a three minute walk from the main entrance to the entrance of T-Mo...

Isn't the PAC-12 media day today? Maybe they were going to that.

That looks like it was somewhere in the 4th quarter. Before the game the NEZ was pretty empty but at least one section of the zoo was full. And after halftime that video looked like the zoo but there were still some people in the NEZ until the 4th. The NEZ also didn't fill up until just before the g...

At kickoff the nez and sez were both less than half full. But nice try The SEZ was actually pretty full. They were in the shade because of the scoreboard so it filled up. The NEZ wasn't full, but there were more people there than I thought would be since they were in direct sunlight. The Zoo filled...

I didn't really want to start a new thread just for this but this is kind of very last minute. I have two tickets for sale to the Hawaii game this weekend. Row 27 on midfield, includes a parking pass. Face value is $25 per ticket. Anybody interested in taking them off my hands at face value? PM me a...

As always, love the countdown. Thank you so much for doing it every year. I start getting excited for the football season when I see Day 99. Hope to maybe see some of you at a tailgate tomorrow before the game.

I was impressed with how he played last year. I think he'll end up being one of our best defensive players this year.

Sneaking out of work in a few minutes so I can get home in time to watch the game. Today wasn't very productive.

I thought it was interference too, but the announcers never even mentioned that possibility.

Was on a cruise from L.A. up to Vancouver last month and ran into quite a few Arizona fans. One man and his wife have football season tickets directly behind my new seats.

I tried a few times shortly after they went on sale and I kept getting C. Ended up keeping them. Not too bad of seats, in the center of the section it looks like.

We stayed in Princeville in Kauai, which is up north, about five minutes from the St. Regis which is a very upscale resort. It looked like a really nice place. You can also head west on the main road until it ends and just walk into the ocean and snorkel there. Nothing special though. Don't remember...
