I bet Phillips will not be on scholarship.

Yes

But what about Bronny James?

Phil Knight is approaching 85 years old.

When Phil Knight passes, what will Oregon athletics look like?

He was supposed to decide by his bday, which was yesterday, but he just barely took that Gonzaga visit, so he delayed it a bit. No official day, but I think it should be in the next couple of weeks. Don’t quote me on that though.

I will quote you whenever I want and there is nothing you can do ...

This is the worst hire in Arizona sports history considering the situation. I’m truly baffled.

Baffled ?

You must be new to UofA sports, I think it is more likely that you were unprepared .

Heke screwing this up was predictable

You could be disappointed that the school president did not ...

Excuse me while I go get a built bar to get jacked like Tommy Lloyd and making some bets on next season at betonline.ag.

Tommy Lloyd, not Tommy Floyd?

I cannot think of any student who would not drop out of college to make $500K per year to play basketball all day.

GREAT question

This is good news only IF they play a 2020-2021 season, which is 50/50 at the moment.

My Sister lives in Johnstown, PA.

When we visited with her this summer, she said their sports-nut friend from J-Town said Sean Miller got screwed over by ESPN and he was fully aware of the unbalanced coverage/accusations the UofA received.

That is one neutral party outside the bubble that sees ...

Dawkins says ESPN reported conversation did not take place

"I wasn’t there," Dawkins said. "I just got out of criminal court case for the last two months. I had no involvement with Deandre Ayton, that’s a fact. So the whole (February 2018) ESPN report (that said Dawkins and Miller discussed ...

I am not endorsing the guy one way or the other, but when we talk UofA alum as possible coaches (at any level), why does Bruce Fraser's name not ever come up? He seems to be the closest thing to a Steve Kerr clone.

It just seems to be a defense that needs major adjustments as the other tournament teams offenses have figured out how to beat it.

Now that it appears Miller is staying, what are the thoughts on who we would like and who are realistic candidates to fill our assistant coaching positions?

My totally random names are:

1. Kevin Ollie - Fired at UCONN, was Jim Calhoun assistant and seems to have lots of recruiting ties to east and ...

1. We were told Arizona was bad on defense because we did not have the right players
2. We were told Virginia had the right players who bought in and it was a historic defense
3. Virginia lost to a #16 seed by 20 points
4. UMBC ran circles around Virginia and at times ran the same layup drills ...

I like how you can tell who the idiots are by calling for a UofA guy. There's no one good enough, or available, or capable, or qualified for the Arizona job except Josh Pastner that is a Arizona guy.

Personally I would go after Hoiberg if he's fired, he's still only 45.

Dumb Question: If Arizona fired Miller, who would they replace him with that would pass the "integrity" test? Some say Romar. Romar!?!?!?! hmm, seems like he has gotten as many head-scratching 5* kids as anyone...... how would he pass the test?

The criteria for a replacement coach is he has to ...
