Re: 2023-2024 Arizona Basketball

Great call out. I like these graphics but I think the author struggles with correlation vs causation I like them too but I struggle with why folks still use overall tempo or pace as any kind of marker for playing well/efficient. If you have a good defense your tempo is going to be slower. If you ha...

Re: 2023-2024 Arizona Basketball

https://twitter.com/ryanhammer09/status/1772328155807731744 Couple things are helpful to know when looking at anything that using overall pace or tempo: 1. There is no correlation between offensive efficiency and offensive possession length. There are good and bad fast, and slow, offenses. 2. Defen...

Re: Tommy Lloyd

It may be helpful for you to understand that until very recently, Gonzaga’s/Few’s/Lloyd’s LACK of NCAA tournament success was an issue for those that care about these kinds of things. Losing ahead of seed-expectation, losing almost every NCAA tournament game it played to a highly seeded opponent, ne...

Re: Tommy Lloyd

You’re moving the goalposts again. The issue isn’t “contributors”. The issue is: lack of ncaa tournament performance coupled the very unconventional roster composition when it comes to teams that have made F4s and won natties. When the AD is looking for folks to commit to $25,000 a year times 10 ye...

Re: Tommy Lloyd

I guess when boosters say foreign player heavy rosters have not been shown as effective I would question that and the intelligence of those that said that. Ballo (foreigner) and Pelle (euro)are both starters on a team that was number 1 in the country. Mathurin was a foreign player. The leading scor...

Re: Tommy Lloyd

Weird to think the big money boosters were all behind Miller when things went south but thought it would be a good idea to heat up Lloyds seat if he lost today. Winger, I think we all get your stance, well except thecat, I think we all don’t get the big money. Couldn’t be happier with the leadershi...

Think maybe you all are misunderstanding.

No one is a bigger Lloyd guy than me. I did what I could make sure Arizona hired him.

Re: Tommy Lloyd

Never heard about any agreement. Did hear Robbins was ready to move on Miller immediately after the Romar - Oregon weekend.

Imo this was a pretty big week for Lloyd to get through. His seat isnt hot but a third flameout may have got people talking and his AD is no longer there.

Re: 2023-2024 Arizona Basketball

You cant defend 3s. Story of the game for me was Lloyd going no center for like the last 10 minutes and heavy on Bradley and Lewis in the 2nd half. Everything was going against Arizona from like the 16:00 mark of the 1st half through about the first 8:00 or so of the 2nd, but our guards/wings played...

Re: Why Arizona got Lucky

Winger, any info you can share on the assistants that left. Specifically Dwayne Walker, Nansen and Akina. They must have seen through Fisch and I wonder how that would have played out if Fisch would have stayed Only assistant I know is Chuck and I dont ask him about nor bring up Fisch. Nansen moved...

Like Lloyd said himself last night, players were just standing around. That's on you coach. I've gone back and forth with Lloyd. I appreciate the way he has revitalized the program, but there are problems that need to be addressed now and into the future. From my perspective, he committed one the o...

Easy path: Best coach in the history of the tournament possibly in round 2. The best 5-seed and, of lesser import, if not the best 12-seed #2 behind McNeese St, in round 3. Leaving Arizona aside, Clemson is the best 6- in the field, Alabama has the best offense in the country (tho admittedly maybe t...
