They both just looked 35 when they were teenagers.

Are we making up the UsC and ASU game or are they just donezo?

I want the #1 in the Midwest. I’d rather avoid the Zags until the FF is possible.

Don’t know if my heart can take another Wisconsin situation.

Duke’s not making it out of the first weekend this year. They’ll get better. That front court is elite. I see them making the 2nd weekend but someone will get them before they see a FF. I’m not sure they’re the National title contender i thought they were. Still, i want no part of them and the refs...

Terry reminds me of Solomon Hill. He still needs to get his body and mind in sync. The ability is there. It’s just going to take another season to put it all together. By all the tweets posted here this last off season, it seemed like he did spend a lot of time in gym. Terry is much more athletic. ...

I suspect that we are going to need to recalibrate our perception of recruiting. We saw Sean shifting towards lower rated guys who would stick around and build a steady program. Yes, he was somewhat forced to do it, but I think we're going to see a lot of that and it's not going to be as useful to ...

Similar discussion about recruiting going on on Gonzaga board…..where are the recruits? Interesting article in The Athletic today about transfer portal…coaches seem to be willing to hold positions open for transfers instead of rushing out to grab freshmen. Could be the new normal. Happy to see CTL ...

In regards to recruiting, I've gone on the record saying that Lloyd has been extremely disappointing. Bruce Pascoe said that Lloyd is waiting till after the season to push the gas pedal, after he determines which players are staying. I have not heard anything from Lloyd on this, but I'm almost cert...

I'm still not convinced this was more than just a fever dream.

Just think, the beavs got as far last year as Sean Miller ever has in March. God bless this crazy tournament.

Usc seems legit.

I know Bobby Robbins; So I am really getting a kick out of most of these replies. Some of you guys are very good at making it sound like you know what you are talking about. But trust me.... You don't. I think you just want to make yourself sound smart, when in reality you don't know what you are t...

If you guys want to do a "Thank You Sean Miller" billboard in Tucson I'd put money towards it. The Alumni Association might be the better group to lead this, but I'm not in touch with them. Likewise, there may be other groups to involve. But we can do it ourselves too. Get a nice classy graphic and...

It's funny how the Illinois game circulates in my subconscious as among the most devastating events of my life. Will the sting from that loss ever go away completely? This game will live rent free in my head for eternity. There are others from time to time i think about like UConn and Hornes shot a...

I’m just rooting for him to become Ivan Radenovic for his upperclassman years .... Anyone think Tibet Gorener can carve out a role for himself eventually, probably not this year but maybe down the road? I really liked what I saw from the tapes he had out and kid can shoot.

Just wanted to come back here and pay my respects ..... Coach O is responsible for the peak of my fandom and 1997 is the best sports ride of my life. And for everything he was as a coach , he was an even better human being by all accounts.

Rest easy coach along w Bobbi now!

Ya 99% sure the mini tourney series was in Akron that night actually. Not even sure how our team got into it lol. We got crushed and the year before we didn’t play on any Ohio tournies so not even sure why we were there. I just remembered a few of the guys who graduated year before were home on Xmas...

PennZona20

One more thing lol, the second thing that jumped out (besides his obvious size and strength and athletic ability for a 16 yr old), was his hoop iq was incredible already. It was half the reason he had so many steals, you could see him seeing plays develop before they happened, his rotations on D (wh...

Just to add to that story , i had been to a few nba games so i understood the speed and incredible abilities of pros live at that time, and i can say without any exaggeration that Lebron could’ve at least come off the bench in the nba as a sophomore in HS and average at least 5-8ppg, he was that gro...

Got the LeBron treatment during camp in HS and Travis Walton (Michigan State; 2 FFs) on the road against Lima Senior amongst many others. Mainly played against dudes who went to Ohio State. Also saw Bron win state as a Junior. Year after i graduated i went to see my high school squad (small school ...

No.

We’d pretty much have to lose out to miss the tourney. However lose 2 of next 3 and we may be facing a play in game. Ew.

And to the miller backers I have to ask again...Are the players having fun? If they are, I'm not seeing it. I'm sure Josh is not feeling well, but even injured players usually accompany the team on road trips. We're in SoCal FFS, not Boston. Nico has had a joyless, timid look on his mug all season....

PennZona20

Seems like the team has quit on him. We are saying this every year pretty much. Some quit and move on to other programs, the rest stay and reveal it through their play. Feel like I've been really, really patient with Sean. He's earned it. But this is the first year where the product on the floor is...

PennZona20

Lots of ignorance going on Nico will be a steady NBA PG The kid is number 1 in APG in all Div 1 amongst freshmen His shot being way off isn’t a mechanics thing and he has proven against elite competition he can fill it up He will be a lottery pick and will stick in the NBA, his game is NBA 100% and...

Watch the press conference yourself...I just did. The tweets about it weren’t completely quoted correctly- and the tone was misrepresented. He looked miserable and frustrated- like we all are right now. What else does everyone expect him to say? He took responsibility for not closing out tough game...

That’s a bad look. U have to have a doc come w the quick concussion protocol there, he clearly hit his head hard after that drive. U can’t leave it up to the player, even kids who aren’t invested in the program (like some of ours) are competitive enough to say they can go hit a FT. Also the subs at ...

I really have a good feeling about this team. I know I pretty much always say that so my opinion holds no weight but this is the perfect season for a young team like this. For all of the criticism on Coach & the team, a lot of it actually supports the fact that our upside is damn close to the top o...

Who would be on your list to replace Millet next year Choo? The main thing i see that is a hindrance for Miller getting this team back is roster management. He’s just not good at it. It’s like we only get the kids who are just good enough to be 1AD but not good enough to be transcendent and the few...

PennZona20

Staf was given a pretty bad rap, but he was the #2 PG in his class after Chris Paul, and never lived up to the hype. He also led the team in unforced errors, such as stepping on the baseline when not covered. He used to look at Lute with puppy dog eyes after that to see if he was getting pulled or ...

PennZona20

I mean he’s air balling wide open Js at this point. Obviously he’s better than he’s shown, but i agree he doesn’t do anything great except maybe change of pace dribbling and maybe his floater but he does some things terrible. Tough to see anything more than a S16 ceiling on this team after tonight. ...

What’s the rumor someone dropped in the i game thread last night about nico going Italy after the season? I meant he could end up there if it doesn't work in the NBA. He's probably a career backup at best. He has good vision but not elite quickness or explosiveness, and his jumper is clunky and doe...

It’s not hard to be confident in this team due to their talent in relation to the rest of the league and the rest of D1. It is hard to be confident at times though when you look at things like execution down the stretch and how young our core is. We can certainly win our next four games. We are als...

Distinction without a difference imo. Guards/wings/bigs (centers if they can't shoot). I think you're looking at Kerr through the lens of modern hoops. We're in the age of "positionless" basketball. Kerr's era still had positions. It was part of the culture of basketball until fairly recently. Stil...

For the record I get we are still a work in progress, and still developing, but that shouldn’t discount the fact that we still are under performing.

Just wanted to chime in and say Lavs is great relative to the options out there.

25ish wins, either pac reg season or post season champ or runner up and at least sweet 16 with a competitive loss.

Yea in a sane world all three of our stud freshman would return for their sophomore years.
