Is it true that when someone asked James Harden what he scored on his IQ test, answered "I don't know but I passed."

Don't know what algorithm Pomeroy uses but he rates them #1. Pac-12 was 6th. This has been fairly consistent over the years IIRC.

Sad.

Here is how the Big 12 coaches stack up going into the 2024-25 season. Ranking uses a proprietary formula that is heavily weighted to NCAA tournament performance but includes consideration of regular season conference championships won, D1 won/loss records, and length of time as a D! head Coach: 4. ...

Has deep roots in the area. His dad still lives in Spokane. Probably feels like coming home to him.

Restaurant was in Waco according to reports Ii have seen.

It should be intuitively obvious to the most casual of observers that if Oumar Ballo is good enough for Arizona he is good enough for UNC.

Best wishes for your future young man - don't neglect your studies.

The women's game is bocoming/has become much more enjoyable to watch than the usual thug ball that the men play these days.

Sorta surprised that Josh Pastner hasn't got another job this year - may be too soon since his dismissal from Georgia Tech. He will most likely have another shot somewhere down the road.

Kylan Boswell has played in 71 games over two years at Arizona. Of 522 point guards rated by Real GM he is #262 out of 522. He is #12 out of 17 rated in the Pac-12. He did improve from his freshman to his sophomore year, but only marginally - there was no big Sophomore jump as is common with college...

If we like sweet sixteens, we should have kept Pennell.

Got to an Elite Eight before Tommy.

There is something much worse than meltdowns and ranting and raving after Wildcat losses.

Apathy.

Here are the final Hollinger Player Efficiency Ratings (PER) for the entire team for the 36 game 2023-2024 season (starters in bold ): 27.2 Oumar Ballo 21.6 Motiejus Krivas 20.2 Caleb Love 19,8 Keshad Johnson 19.8 Paulius Murauskas 18.5 Pelle larsson 17.9 Filip Borovicanin 16.9 K.J.

This team did not have just a single bad game. This team had a post season collapse. Here are the "Bird" scores for the eight rotation players for all five post season games (2 Pac-12 plus 3 NCAA tournament): 27.6 Oumar Ballo (one of two players on the team to match his season long score) 18.7 Jaden...

Bold prediction - Kylan Boswell will not, no way José, be the starting point guard at Arizona next season.

KaibabKat

Out-played, out-coached, out-classed.

Aw shucks, sweet sixteens are nice.

There is a Fat Lady spraying her throat in one of the tunnels.

How many airballs has our MVP chucked so far?

2 baskets in a row is not a spurt of death.

Why is an old Everly Brothers song going thru my head?
Bye, bye Love,
Bye, bye happiness...

Took us 9 minutes to get the ball inside?

Looking like the Cats must have had another great party last night.

NOT the start I was hoping to see.

Who do you suppose Len Gordy is picking?

Here are the 2024 sweet sixteen TEAM rankings. Each and every player is given a "value" determined by his Hollinger PER multiplied by the PERCENT of minutes he has played for the team. The TEAM value is the sum of the player values. 2087 UConn 2051 Gonzaga 1984 Purdue 1927 Houston 1918 Arizona 1916 ...

Saw Eric Money score 37 in his first game at Arizona in Bear Down Gym. Was at the first game in McKale vs. Wyoming. Still have the "I Was There" pin when we defeated UCLA and USC in the same weekend in McKale. Was at Provo when Coniel Norman went off for 44 points and Jim Wakefield made a "Black Pow...

Chip & Joanna.

Thank you for an enjoyable season ladies. You fought like Wildcats and made us all proud.

Pelle should qualify for graduate school at Juliard

Is his hand located between his ears?

Seven out of eight of our regular rotation players came to play. One may have spent the night in Wendover.

KaibabKat

Can't stand riches.

Contract running out - no renewal on the table - "Muns" must be pretty dense if he did not see the handwriting on the wall and act accordingly.

That is more like it.

4 for 18 inside the arc.

Has Ballo touched the ball?

Tempe Normal's finest.

If Arizona is still playing at the end of next week most will agree that Tommy Lloyd is an elite basketball coach. If not he will probably be considered an, aw shucks, fairly good coach.

KaibabKat

Salt Lake City is nice - altitude should have less impact on us than Long Beach AND there are far fewer opportunities to party hardy the night before games.

KaibabKat

A #2 seed means we are deemed to be one of the best eight teams in the country. Making the. Elite Eight will be meeting expectations. A Final Four, or better, and we exceed expectations. A sweet sixteen, or less, means we have not played up to expectations. Let the games begin.

KaibabKat

Well, what do you know - a D1 basketball team from Maricopa County, Arizona is going to the big dance. Nope, it isn't the Normal School.

There must be a terrible odor in that facility the way Arizona is stinking up the joint.
