Jesus if he doesn't leave to be a lottery pick he must be the biggest mama's boy in college basketball history. I get coming back to a team that's a major contender, but at best with the roster they have and especially the coach they have their ceiling is sweet 16 next year. Sweet 16 might be a bit...

There's a lot of justified talk about playing small next year due to the depth of our backcourt, but I've been wondering about a lineup something like this: PG: Simmons, 6-5 SG: Ferguson, 6-7 SF: Smith, 6-8 PF: Markkanen, 6-11 C: Ristic, 7-0 I mean, this may not be our best roster, and you could ar...

Arizona is now two and three yrs ahead of the curve in terms of recruiting -- Coach Miller has developed the flexibility to be super selective in who he takes; below for '16 is no different. TJ Leaf -- verbal commit top prospects Derryck Thornton Jr Josh Jackson M.J. Cage thats top 5 class again --...

Totally disagree. Las Cruces is a great college town. I would not be surprised if Joe takes the job.

Damn it's hard to believe and the leaf decommitment we were hoping for JJ, Andrew Jones, some kid from Seattle I can't remember and Markus Howard and then to end up with 4 5 star kids and very athletic kids. Wow Miller is witch We were hoping for Mitch Lightfoot at one point too. It has been an int...

No LOI from Alkins yet. Hope it arrives soon.

I sure wish he would consider Arizona. Is it really zero chance, 97cats?

ACC for basketball and SEC for football gets just hand slaps and strongly worded letter from the NCAA compared to the PAC in both sports. USC football is the obvious one, but remember when the UA lost a scholie for 2 years due to some Lute Olson stamped signature on some Jim Story Cactus Classic fu...

25 year old head coach? geeze It seems like nepotism was the only reason he got that job in the first place. He also is married to a very intelligent, pretty young lady: http://heavy.com/sports/2016/04/ande-ragsdale-tyler-summitt-wife-pat-daughter-in-law-age-bio-louisiana-tech-basketball-career/

Okay so we're not exactly KU's b*tch. But KU and AZ went all in on this guy, and he ended up thinking KU was a better fit. Just not sure how that happens, given JJ's relationship with Sean and the general appeal of our program. It seemed for months like we had the edge. Anyway, moving on. Our '16 c...

It looked like Kansas for a while and early on. MSU was a favorite when they got Bridge's', Langford etc and that good class (JJ close friends) and they were favorites. Sean Miller coached the U19 USA Basketball team where JJ played under Miller, and then Arizona became the favorite. And now it's K...

How long until Hansen says that Josh will try to poach Kobi Simmons and Terrence Ferguson?

az91

Someone is going to say it sooner or later: Sean Miller is at the top of the list to replace Josh Pastner at Memphis.

az91

Let's have some fun with this. Maybe Ferguson decides to take a trip to Georgia Tech while he is on the east coast?

az91

Not a huge surprise given reason talk. Our chances of landing him were probably over-hyped for a long time.

He disgraced his ailing mother's legacy. There is no chance he ever gets the Tennessee job now.

That is called failing upward. Georgia Tech >> Memphis.

So is it time to let "JJ to AZ" settle into the "what could've been" folder? Or are the KU rumors exaggerated? Definitely time to close the garage door and start the engine. Are these actual questions (like someone knows but won't tell you?) or are you just whining? The truth is out there . . . and...

If I was Greg Byrne, the first call I would make is to Archie.

I haven't seen one thing to substantiate the rumor that Matta is leaving. Besides, coaches seldom leave on their own unless it is for another job or health reasons. A number of players have decided to leave the program, though.

Spaceman Spiff wrote:This is highly speculative, but I just saw a rumor that Thad Matta is leaving (voluntarily) tOSU.

I wonder if Archie would go there? If it was not really Matta's choice to leave, maybe Archie, or for that matter Shawn, would not go there out of respect for Matta.

i'm hoping for the most improvement in the offseason from dusan, He never took the freshman to sophomore jump, but then again he had to go up against Zeus in practice. Going up against freshmen and sophomores next year should really help restore Deuce's confidence. He looked like he was going to ma...

6'8" forward from San Diego

Maybe he is a practice body?

He was a composite 4* ranked #34, Scout over ranked him as he was always a mid to high 4* with a potential to be a 5*. I can't help but read into having to compete with 2 more talented wings that have yet to commit. Anyway we likely lost Simon & Trier, hindsight is 20/20 but would've love to have D...

I've always liked the idea of getting healthy at the expense of a conference rival so for me if I was UNC I'd take a hard look at Tony Bennett to go along with the look at Miller. Or if CSM moves on the Cats could offer Tony Bennett. I am not overly concerned about the Arizona program in the long t...
