That is just awesome. The Awe Shucks Assassin gets why International players buy in to the team concept and I’m assuming that will be a point of emphasis in future recruiting.

If you want to come to Arizona here’s the deal…

IIRC Lloyd said his first filter with respect to recruits was character. Talent without character can score points but it eventually undermines the team culture.

I was telling my friends last night before our game that in reality I only had two goals I wanted to see this team achieve:

Being the second #2 seed to lose to a #15, I didn’t want to be the second #1 to lose to a #16.

And I didn’t want to be the first #1 to lose.

Mission accomplished x2. Everything from here on out is gravy.

Even if the Cats lose in the Sweet 16 or the Elite 8 this has been an amazing season. No one ever expected 33-3 heading into the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament. The foundation has definitely been set for the future.

With that being said, let's go out and in the words of the immortal Jake Taylor, "Win the whole...fuckin...thing."

Also, what is this story about Mathurin touching a TCU cheerleader? I didn’t see it, but I’m assuming it was an accident. An accident over which every Texan will be clutching their pearls, I’m sure.

A total accident and it’s not even apparent that he touched her because she didn’t move a muscle.

TCU fans are crying rape and want Mathurin and his stats retroactively wiped from last night’s game so they can move on to the Sweet Sixteen.
