Perspective on Arizona Basketball

If you are reading this and are 37 years old or younger, you’ve lived your entire life with Arizona Basketball being a premier college basketball program.

This is the year. No excuses. It’s set up perfectly for Arizona, anything less than a Final 4 is unacceptable IMO.

Re: South Region Discussion

According to everything I’m hearing, Kerr’s antics and awful play have caused Arizona to lose to so many teams this year and it will cost Arizona again tomorrow.

Apparently he turns the ball over a ton, can’t shoot, and is the reason Arizona will lose to the eventual champions, the Houston Cougars.
