I understand the hope when he came to Arizona would he could be a point forward. However, has Akot ever shown the ability once that he could fill that roll? He has had numerous opportunities after he gathered a defensive rebound to lead the transition and make something happen and nothing ever happ...

I don't dislike Walton as much as many, but when he and Pasch get together they just try to hard to be Walton and Pasch. It was better when they were first working together. This. When they were legit annoying each other it was better than when they started manufacturing it. I have to be in a Walto...

I don't often agree with BC above, but here I do. Put me in the camp that has no feel whatsoever for how this season is going to play out. Root for & enjoy the victories, that's enough for me. This is a good year to have a down/growing/learning team. I believe in the witch. **edit to add - I've real...

I'd dig that bracket. Nevada is tough but on the chance the team catches fire - we get either Duke or Kentucky to go to the F4? Sign me up.

I'm definitely not looking past cal after that nice start they had against asu, and I don't think CSM is either. Heck with the year we've got going, I would hope the players aren't. Wonder how the ambulance services are staffing game nights this year? It's not just the end of games this year. #ever...

This post is a little for ODogg but also in general. I've been struggling with Ira's patience & (for lack of a better word) hysterics this last season & a half - including the beginning of the game last night. I feel like he's going to be a favorite but I also have felt like he's mostly played out o...

These are the times I regret not constantly checking BDW.com.

Usually, I'm feeling like a degen when I'm constantly refreshing.

Coleman is a huge upgrade at PG - confident, passionate, tough, ballzy - complete opposite from what was here before Williams is probably is the best player on the team - however, his inability to finish at the rim is alarming plus hes very physically immature...look for the ball to be in his hands...

I’m so damn pumped for tonight. Sorta feel like Zaga has become one of our bigger OOC rivals over the years. Wish they were at full strength. Dito, it's exactly what I wanted. I like our chances tonight. I also like watching this kind of team much more than last year's. Scrappy over-achieving team ...

Holy. Shit. I've spent the last couple months on grad photos & announcements & air bnb's & dinner reservations with my ex-wife for my oldest daughter's big weekend, and now it's here. I'm really only a fanatic on the internet for the basketball team but my family is tied to UofA more than is maybe e...

Bear Down Vegas

Cal is def not a great basketball option - but the best school option. Like it or not, UNR is a legit basketball option now. As good as UofA? We're all biased and probably not, but Reno & Musselman are far from a bad option these days. Hard not to get optimistic about this though from our perspective.

I heard Miller spoke at an alumni event after the Lute ceremony and basically said I have been humbled by everything that has happened I did nothing wrong and will be vindicated once all the facts come out I really appreciate the support of the Arizona administration and I am at Arizona for as long...

I admit to being wrong at least 5 times a day (mostly to my wife) It's not that hard.

97 - you are my favorite. You know this. I have a hard time remembering disagreeing with you & the couple times we've shared drinks & games have been fantastic.

Last season too, look at the Xavier game. Even Lauri had no interest in shooting the last 8 minutes. He passed the rock as soon as he got it. or go look at Wichita State and Buffalo as well as Xavier -- the exact same thing happened, all three games are a carbon copy. Arizona's guards (specifically...

Am I crazy to pick UCLA to make a decent run here - even with the extra game?? I think they can get two wins for sure & maybe even to the S16.

Put me in the, "I just can't wait for Thursday" camp. I know Salim's Headband & LH have said it the loudest but I agree with them, it doesn't matter. Maybe we'll catch a break & win AND meet up with some upsets. Or maybe we'll have to go the hardest route. Just bring me Thursday & LFG. Bear Down Cat...

So did Hansen actually lie or did he just get in trouble for telling the truth? He said it wasn’t Ayton it was another player (Bowen) Isn’t that maybe the truth? Well, yes, that's surely possible. However - he said he spoke with Book. (someone who rhymes with Look) If he did, that's illegal and wil...

Hanson should be in major trouble for making up that stuff about Miller. This, this - all day this. Greg went on the airwaves earlier this week and LIED. He made up a story. Then he went back on air to say he shouldn't have done it. Everything he previously said was made up and he "misspoke". I swe...

Bear Down Vegas

It's not Miller's style to take questions after a conference like this regardless of the announcement - but that is scary nonetheless.

Bear Down Vegas

I think it's fairly agreeable that this team's biggest weakness was a lack of fire/effort on defense. This really could turn into an amazing 30 for 30. What a crazy week.

Also - not uncommon for us Arizona Wildcats it seems.

Bear Down Vegas

It is very telling that ESPN has not posted one follow-up article on Miller. They “broke” this massive story about the alleged corrupt actions of one of the biggest coaches in college basketball at one of the biggest programs, and now they have completely distanced themselves from the story they br...

Bear Down Vegas

Hey, if you're not on the edge of your seat all day every day trying to muster patience about off-the-court issues that threaten to crush all hope, then you're not a fan of Arizona basketball. Watching games and stuff like that is for fans of other programs. Watching games is just something we do o...

Here's another question to go on the pile... Yahoo obviously has plenty of the same information (and maybe even more), there is a high probability here that they have the wiretap transcript or at least hints of it, yet they did not run with the Sean Miller/buy Ayton angle AT ALL... Why is that? The...

Bear Down Vegas

Thank you (as always) for that.

So this case is a full year out, any chance Miller sits out a year til he can talk/be vindicated (assuming he is under an nda and is complying with the fbi) and this is why he brought in Romar? A guy he can trust, good recruiter, serviceable head coach, people like him..... and then when the dust s...

Bear Down Vegas

I will say 2 things I believe to be true. 1. We paid for recruits 2. There is no way Miller was saying what is alleged on wiretap. He isn’t that stupid. I believe #1 is the case, and is also widespread, even for the more prominent mid-majors. But I stop there. We don't know anything else. And I thi...

I'm kinda surprised I'm the first person to mention Dan Majerle from Grand Canyon. Probably hasn't been around long enough to be dirty, ties to Arizona (the state anyway), built a fun program there quickly.

Bear Down Vegas

What exactly is gonna change? The rules? Outside sources are paying players who the hell cares. The upside I guess is that the fans don't care. But if the entire sport is corrupt & the FBI is trying to prove it - doesn't it seem like this could result in an overhaul of some sort? Or are they just g...

Wouldn't you agree all bets seem to be off with just about every team this year? (Though to be fair Kansas has looked a lot better the last couple weeks)

Bear Down Vegas

This FBI thing is starting to feel like everyone & everything is about to come down & college basketball (as we know it) is about to change - a lot. Maybe not in the next couple months...but it sure looks like that's what's coming. The releasing and leaking of this information has been slowly for a ...
