2024-25 Arizona Basketball

[ChooChooCat]

Overseas is still an option.

As of today, no, it's not.

How does that work? Some sort of cut off with going Euro that happened?

Also I'm not going to get my hopes up with Sanon but he at least seems to keep saying the right things.

Nah there's no time cut off issue at work here. Caleb Love is either going to go pro via the NBA (G League) or he's going to return to Arizona. He's not looking at overseas as an option as of today. If this were before the NIL era then overseas would likely be a predominant option for him, but today he can make overseas money at a place he's very comfortable at and at a level he's very successful at. NIL makes Arizona a no brainer pick over overseas today.

[Fishclamps]

Ah gotcha, just an NBA or bust approach. Thanks Choo.

[Chicat]

If I was C-Love I’d try to stay on the NBA’s radar for as long as possible. Obviously Arizona provides more opportunities there than playing for the Krakow Potato Weevils.

[SCCats]

Hey, Kraków’s great!!

[Beachcat97]

I have renewed hope that we're getting Love and Sanon for 2024-25.

Win-Win.

Another year will be good for the team and for his game.

[Beachcat97]

KJ is a legit stud. He showed flashes this past season. Can't wait to see him with our transfers and freshmen.

According to Scheer and Luke’s podcast on YouTube, the coaching staff would be “shocked” if Sanon enrolls and plays at UofA. That statement did not seem to give any reference to which class he ends up in. Apparently his dad/agent is telling different stories (in the same day) about his recruitment depending on who is asking. Shady parents/agents are a no for me.

My personal thoughts are that we get Caleb back this year and never see Sanon in an Arizona jersey.

They also said we would add another player from the portal if Sanon doesn't come here

That’s already 9-10 guys that might see the floor with Martinez and Stephen seeing garbage time minutes. Sanon was never going to fit on this roster with Caleb. That was a pipe dream.

I’m not sure we add anyone of talent level value. We want a good locker room guy with some experience or give that last Scholarship to a walk on

I think a lot of people are underestimating Veesaar not as a center but a stretch 4. I think that is where he will play more than center.

It's a little hard to under- or overestimate Veesaar given how little we've actually seen him play!

I'd be very surprised if Phillips plays much next year and I sure wouldn't bet on Veesaar getting any minutes, but I guess it's possible.

Bradley, Love, Lewis, Townsend, Krivas, Dell'Orso, Bryant, Awaka will get all the minutes in games that matter. This also depends on if we do land Miles Kelly in the portal or not as well.

Miles Kelly, eh? First I've heard his name mentioned.

Played for Damon so he has a connection to Arizona

Going to Miami per twitter.

I can't find this, Merk. Do you have a link?

[Merkin]

Looks like most of them were deleted.

[Postmaster]

I think you are talking about Simon Jarvis.

Just committed to Auburn actually.

[Fishclamps]

Easy come, easy go

[84Cat]

I'll take it that we will hear soon that Love is coming back

Auburn? Seriously?? This had better be an NIL thing because losing a guy to Auburn isn't the best sign of the times.

Haha it's ok, we were offering him a bench role and he's from Georgia. Wasn't exactly a homerun type recruitment for us with the role we had available.

Your first reaction to the news Luke is referring to here will be unnecessary panic. Don't. It'll be fine.

Seems to be alluding to Phillips possibly decommitting.

Considering what Choo said, we must be getting someone better like Sanon. Of course there may be a silent commit or someone else we don't know about

I don't know about anything else in the works in regards to recruits, although I know if we can land Will Riley in 2024 we will definitely be all for that. I'm not sure any other option is on the plate with what Tommy has going on this week. All I know is what is about to be announced isn't anything that will hurt Arizona short term or long term.

[Irish27]

I am hearing it's Phillips, but I guess we will have to wait for the official announcement.

[Fishclamps]

Wait why would he be decommitting? Buried on the depth chart?

[Merkin]

Jamari Phillips signed his NLI. Unless the rules have changed, you cannot get released from your NLI unless the head coach has changed.

Since it won't affect this upcoming season maybe it's something to do with Tommy coaching the U18s with 2025 recruits?

How does that not impact next year's team?

Welp, that's all the reassurance I need.

[Fishclamps]

Not me, I'm curious as shit

[SunnyAZ]

If you look at Mike's replies on Twitter it does seem that Jamari is leaving. Also his dad was a giant UA supporter on Twitter but deleted his Twitter.

[SunnyAZ]

How does that not impact next year's team?

From what I can gather it seems like Mike is being a dick here? It seems like Mike and Jamari's dad got into an an argument online and Mike is saying it won't affect next year's team to troll him?
