Bear Down Wildcats

pc in NM

Overall had a great career but had a knack for disappearing in games this season. Last night he did not defend well at all. When Cats cut it down to 2 with under a min left, he let Chase blow by him to the basket, which put pressure on the defenders the basket and hence the deuce and 1. Maybe he’s ...

I am maximally disappointed, grieving, and, honestly, not really surprised that Arizona flamed out. After the end of the regular season, with the losses to Wazzu @ McKale, the UCLA debacle, and also, Oregon, I had revised my expectation for this team downward. And, Clemson's experienced seniors, exc...

I’ll have only fond memories of Caleb’s one season with this program. He’s a good dude, and he’s going to play professionally somewhere. Thanks, Caleb! Bear down forever! I agree wholeheartedly. I've liked the player, and the man, a lot more than I anticipated when he first arrived. He faces some t...

He has almost everything he needs, his shot improved over the season. He just needs to calm down with his hands. I know he wants to get steals and disrupt them and I appreciate that but his hands are always flying all over the place and that's way too many unnecessary fouls. No hate on KJ though, I...

I took it more as “CTL is going to find me a sports psychologist so I can get out of my own head.” Kylan has been an easy player to like both seasons, and is definitely a good individual. But, he has significant consistency deficits, and has hit a ceiling lower than any of us expected. I place him ...

I place Jaden as the leading candidate for starting PG next season - it's his to lose.

Hope he keeps developing. He has good skills, and is a fierce competitor on both ends!

Hope he has competition for the job, but, all things being equal, I place Boz and Martinez as competing for backup.

Clemson has NEVER trailed in 2.5 games. Teams are shooting 11-58 from three against them. That is insane And yet, does their defense really look all that smothering to you? I see Arizona making a ton of unforced errors and taking bad shots. This 100%, we are beating ourselves. Clemson is not missin...

When I hear National pundits talk about this game it becomes clear that they really don’t watch Arizona. Just “Caleb love experience” and Clemson with the upset. 🤮 Hmmm... I have yet to see a national pundit pick Clemson. In any case, so the fuck what? Most of the pundits I've seen focus on Ballo v...

It’s not happening so is a moot point. And remember, it’s not who starts the game but ends it. The last game should prove to us that CTL understands that. This 💯 Arizona has a solid 8-man rotation, and the reserves are all excellent, allowing for individual starters to have off games... ... focus o...

The current NCAA broadcast status (CBS,TNT, TBS & TRU) totally lacks the true excitement of the first two rounds - the simultaneity of multiple games!

I don't think there was any mutual agreement with Miller. They refused to extend him and decided to go in another direction.

No CSM was dismissed but not for cause which meant they had to pay his salary. So, I actually looked it up (overcoming my typical laziness and procrastination) - he had one year left on his contract at the end of his last season (which, IMNSHO, was the "handwriting on the wall") https://www.azcentr...

Was it the final year of his contract and they didn’t give him a new one?
