Thus far, this seems to be the worst hire made by a school that hasn't been all that great at hiring football coaches. Brennan is losing games like Mackovic did and to mediocre teams to boot. If money was no issue, he would be gone at the end of the season. Now just becomes the waiting game until a ...

He got this job cause he's LeBron podcast buddy right?

Believe he has the same coaching experience Kerr had before his 1st NBA coaching job.

What an incredible pick-up through the portal.

CatMG

I know this has been mentioned but I don't think it has been emphasised enough. Ballo's free throwing in this game was critical as it kept the Buffs from intentionally fouling him at the end of both the half and game. We need this from him to keep other teams from employing this strategy. Bravo Bal...

Perhaps wishful thinking but it was nice to hear in the press conference about selling out games next year. Sounded a bit like Lute ("better get your season tickets now") nearly four decades ago!

CatMG

Boswell is off to a great start. It seems like draft boards have cooled on him, but I wouldn't be surprised if this is his last season in Tucson. He's so good and, FYI, one of the youngest players in CBB. Did you realize he is only 18 years old? I do wonder if it ISN'T his last season in Tucson, if...

CatMG

Well we played a subpar game and was able to pull out a squeaker. Our game against Utah should be a sell out and will be incredibly difficult. Final game against our friends the Sun Devils which this game will be their superbowl..... Yes, we played a sub-par game, and survived self-administered sho...

CatMG

What a game. This team looks tough as nails. Every time Duke cut the lead or even when they went ahead by a couple, somebody makes a big play. And the FTs at the end......cool as ice.

CatMG

Fifita was so efficient. He is fun to watch. He has complete control of this offense.

CatMG

Colorado is terrible Well well well well well 8-) Stanford was up 29-0 when I made my post last night.............talk about some serious Reverse Jinx Mojo :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Did anyone see Prime Time yelling at his players......and then the players yelling back at him??

I was calling for Fifita to come in well before JDL’s injury.

JDL's decision making left a LOT to be desired last night. Hate to say it but if he doesn't get hurt last night they probably don't win.

CatMG

Don't think anybody can bitch about 38-3. Throughout history, many teams have started out slow and improved over the season. Running up the score to 70 or 80 points (Hi, Oregon) on some overmatched team doesn't buy very much. On defense, we kept NAU out of the end zone and only gave up a 49 yard FG...

CatMG

I occasionally stream using the Pac-12 Now app. Hadn't for a while but now when I do, there is only one program available (instead of multiple programs from the various reginal network). Did something change or is it just me........or is this part of the apparent technical maintenance?

I wish they would get rid of these flagrant foul calls on accidental contact. And when I looked at this one, there was barely any contact.

Without the ridiculous number of offensive rebounds by UCLA, Cats win this one going away.

Tonight is an effort and not being a great team problem.

Arizona may have a great offense when playing well. But their defense is atrocious.

CatMG

This is bad basketball. My expections for this season is far less. At least I believe Arizona will make the tourney. I don't see them as a second weekend team. This season has shown they will certainly disappoint in the post season evidenced by all the big leads they have given up throughout the se...

CatMG

Not sure how a #5 ranked team can end up looking like one of the worst Arizona teams I have ever seen.

Nice fucking effort there.

CatMG

What a pathetic effort.

CatMG

How this team has won so many games is pretty unbelievable. Not only are they going to lose but are going to get completely boat-raced by a shitty team.

CatMG

This defense stinks so bad they have no chance to survive lousy offensive outputs (unless they build big enough leads to eventually hold on for close wins).

CatMG

Kerr wasn’t called for a tech due to his attitude yesterday. It was a flop call, which now results in a technical free throw for the opposing team. It was a bit confusing because the announcers were completely clueless and made it sound like it was due to him getting in the official’s face. (By the...

Maybe if folks equate crying in press conferences and interviews with having the coaching ability of Dick Vermeil. Now I admit I didn't watch but heard of the crying.....and being an Eagles fan, I first thought of Dick Vermeil

CatMG

Wondering if post recruits are noticing the development of Ballo (and Koloko) under CTL? I thought the improvement of Koloko couldn't be matched until seeing the improvement of Ballo already early in this season.

CatMG

Really didn't know what to expect. Certainly, didn't expect them to look as good as they did. They had control of the game the entire game and if it weren't for a few plays by SDSU, the score would have been even more lopsided.

CatMG

Horrible call.

Hard not to be. Baylor lost, Kansas had a hell of a battle and Gonzaga is down by 10 heading to halftime. Me thinks these 8-9 seeds are pretty good!

Glad we won. Played well in spurts but overall Wright State was just overmatched. That wont happen Sunday. Lots to talk about and work on.

Shocking that a team that shoots "100" three pointers didn't go to the free throw line much during the game.

Who knows but it just seems unlikely (to me anyway) that a show cause penalty would be given to Miller when it was his rouge assistant who committed almost all of the violations. Sure the lack institutional control is the catch all violation but given they fired Book early in the process should take...

I turned the game on towards the end of the first half and think I saw one basket for Providence for LONG extended period of time that went well into the 2nd half.

If there was an award for most improved player during a season, Ballo wins it.

The only thing that seems certain with Oregon is that when we play them, we get their "A" game.

I also read the Illinois Loyalty recap and their fans complaining that Kofi didn’t get more fouls is hilarious. There were two key fouls (one on Koloko, one on Ballo) where they went straight up and he lowered his head and put his shoulder into their chest to create space. He did that on three made...

CatMG

Wow withstanding all those 3 pointers and a 19-0 run on the road and winning. Fucking unreal.

CatMG

Now THAT goes on a highlight reel!

CatMG

Did they get rid of the shot clock for this game or something? 29 points?

CatMG

Down 41-19 at the half against Houston. Yikes.

CatMG

IMO if they fouled, they likely lose. Plenty of time left, and if WSU hits their foul shots, Cats either turn it over or miss a foul shot and lose on a three.

CatMG

Looking at the espn scoreboard they have the Cats favored by 7.5

CatMG

2) Completely agree with this and I hope we all can rest on this whether we like it or not. Yeah, we took a step back losing Miller. No, we don't know what the long-term future will hold. But this is our guy for the next few seasons and there's no sense in getting worked up, looking backwards, or e...

So why leave? Who is telling him he's ready? Is GLeague money that appealing or did he just not want to be at AZ for another season I assume leaving for the NBA draft after this season was the plan regardless of how it turned out. While the OAD rule is an NBA rule designed to reduce the number of d...

One intersection between this turn through memory lane and the board’s biggest topic: man do I feel bad for students who missed out on AZ being a true powerhouse hoops program. This is not a knock on Miller. He’s given us some great moments and deserves our respect. It’s more a commentary on where ...
