Wild full-circle moment here. It’s funny, I heard Brennan on the SiriusXM CFB off-season previous show over the summer and was extremely impressed by how sensible and grounded he was. I didn’t connect that he was a previous UA coaching candidate. But as great of a human being and good person he is, ...

I mean...who cares? The roster can only be worse next season from where it was projected to be. Lloyd will need to prove it with his own guys regardless.

I feel for you ladies and gents. An extremely ass-backwards system to begin with and the ones profiteering are those least deserving.

I think they should just hire Pastner. He can recruit and if he could get a solid assistant to help him, I think he would do fine. Just so many old time fans resent his smugness and he just being a douchebag in general turns so many people off. I'd take Damon over Pastner in a heartbeat, and Damon ...

Maybe Lloyd didn't like the way Miller was treated and saw glimpse of the future of what can happen to him at some point. Lloyd is fully ready to take the job and it was communicated to him that it would finished yesterday. Robbins didn't offer and never contacted Lloyd today. This is all on Robbin...

ASU's odds of making the tourney with the amount of bigs on their roster (1 - Graham) is going to be a more spirited effort than Jesse Perry trying to hold down the fort as the C years ago - not great

Probably too soon to address this, but if there is no 2020-21 college basketball season, what would happen with our players' eligibility?

Here's my burning question: the scouting and reports around him called to mind Lonzo and Jason Kidd.

Were you thinking Nico would be asked to use a time machine to travel back and guard Kemba as a freshman at UConn?

Just start making a list of guys who are already in the NBA, or will soon be, who you expect to be better than Nico three years from now, provided they’re healthy.

Mannion's more talented than the majority of the guys on that list, but no one can argue his impact will be memorable, especially given no tourney magic was given chance to materialize.
