Just got an alert from the score that Trier is returning

PHXCATS

God damn this place gets rough. Some of you guys turn on players so fast when nothing has even been decided! To be fair I only have an issue with the guys who don't go to class and CST has been consistent with his Trier views for a long time. I do agree with Kenny that the culture is a problem. Eit...

So who really does put the team ahead of themselves? Don't think any coaches or players do. This is true. Every has to have of self serving to get it this level and beyond. But everything is in a spectrum and there are levels where it becomes a detriment to "team". I'd say jacking up ISO shot after...

They can deny you for any reason, they cannot however kick you off after boarding due to overbooking. It is illegal in fact and United may see a fine. Incorrect. It is absolutely legal to remove people after boarding. As long as the plane is at the gate it is considered a denied boarding and people...

I dont care that Rawle, Chance and possibly Trier declare without agents, but it puts the program in a hard spot. Do the coaches recruit over them so they have bodies next year, and if they come back possibly having no room for them. Or do they wait it out and risk not recruiting anyone to replace ...

PHXCATS

I asked earlier and I am genuinely interested in what you all think.

What should the security guys and United have done when they "randomly chose" this doctor to be reassigned and he refused for a long period of time?

Forget the many wrongs of United prior to that.

I get that everyone has their own thing and there are family issues and pressures etc. But some of these guys have been huge disappointments off the court and it is frustrating to see. Who has been a huge disappointment off the court? No one is getting in trouble with the school or the law. So I'm ...

I think the real analogy is if you went out to dinner, and after you ordered, the server delivered you a check, and told you to pay and vacate the table immediately, and informed you that you were welcome to pick up your food as a take-out order at 2:30 PM the following day. And then you disagree w...

What happens if the random selectee is the parent of a child on the plane, or the child of a parent on the plane? It sucks this happened, but clearly there are significant holes in the process for removal which aren't even needed if they fixed the holes in the process overall. I heard an aviation e...

I wonder what the penalty is for breaking the rule for how much you can compensate someone for being bumped. I am sure the fine if there is one is far far far less than the damage this caused.

PHXCATS

United should have just said they weren't moving until this guy got off and that if he didn't they would sue him. He did not deserve to be roughed up like he was but he was completely at fault legally until the police touched him. So you would be ok if you checked into a hotel and while you were al...

Once you are sitting on that plane, I would never give it up either. The airline needs to figure their shit out before passengers are sitting in their seats. I never understand how people / companies continue to do things like this, when we are in the age of smart phones / twitter. I get being upse...

Questions about this. How can United really do a random process for kicking people off? This guy said he was a doctor with patients to see. What if there was a wedding or funeral or job interview or other family emergency and the person had purchased the ticket days prior? Why didn't anyone voluntee...

If Chance isn't going to class he should not get any privileges when he returns.

Really hope Miller Book and Romar can bring in smarter players who will stick around and completely buy into Arizona Basketball

PHXCATS

Chance is better at rebounding and defense than any other big on the roster and can work on the touch in the paint. He has a good outside shot from 17 feet or so. So Miller and Romar, promise the starting job to him so he comes back. He and Arizona will be better for it and Dusan will still get his ...

Miller needs to be like Urban Meyer and assure Chance is the starting C next year, at least for the start of the year

I have no issues with anyone getting evaluated and graded. I have problems with the following. 1) not fulfilling your academic responsibilities 2) wanting to go to the nba since you can't beat out a guy in college I do not want my donations to help people who won't take their responsibilties serious...

Its not personal. If you dont go to class you don't fulfill your end of the deal, so you dont deserve the benefits given to others who do.

Glad he didnt get a presser, didn't deserve one

PHXCATS

Really need Romar to recruit internally and keep the guys who Arizona needs and need to stay for their future

Pasternack was right around $200K

Does it matter?

PHXCATS

This is solid for both sides. Arizona gets a good recruiter and great person who helps out a lot as an assistant. Romar gets to learn from Miller and if he does well for two years gets a much better opportunity than he would this year and probably next year if he sat out a year, if he does want a he...

No probably too late. And the best players (Davis, Porter) already committed elsewhere. Impact is probably 2018 and on

Agree about 2018 but I think he will also play a role in Trier and Alkins internally

I think the magic is one one and done guy and you build the rest of low 4 star guys that develop like Gonzaga and Oregon and Carolina have done (know not all those have the one and dones)

PHXCATS

I know it is further away from Carolina than Gonzaga and Gonzaga had never been there when UNC had but Gonzaga students and fans were so much more into it. Now we know a portion of why. ASU was embarrassed big time by GCU on Saturday. They both had students in the student sections and GCU fans were ...

I thought it had to be for all sports since they dont have football

PHXCATS

Gonzaga fell apart last 2 minutes last night just as much as Arizona did v. X. Happens to the best of coaches. Zags had a very mature team though, same with UNC. Once Miller starts keeping players I think all the pieces will fall together. Gonzaga never had a 8 point lead in the 2nd half North Caro...

PHXCATS

Instead of dropping this in the Lauri thread, I'll put it here. For people criticizing Miller's coaching against Xavier: We shot abysmally from 3 despite getting mostly open looks for good shooters. Bluiett had arguably the best half of his life. Despite that, Miller's game plan was good enough tha...

PHXCATS

Only issue is he might be around for only a year or two then go on to be a HC again, and take a recruit or two with him. But hopefully he would not get a big enough job to make the highest of recruits want to join him.

I like the idea but I think the Cats need a bigger name especially with recruiting

PHXCATS

I've always figured that Miller's constant commitment to man is a selling point to recruits. Lord knows if I were Miller, I'd be using it as a recruiting tool. You can come here and received an advanced class in man to man, which will be required of you in the NBA, or go to UCLA so Alford can hide ...

PHXCATS

I wish basketball was just like the MLB rule. Go out of HS if you want but if you go to college you stay at least three years.

PHXCATS

Miller is a good example for the University when he is up there for these press conferences. Very good coach most of the time and you can tell he cares about the University, Team and his players.

PHXCATS

Probably just the camera zoom at this point, but hopefully not

PHXCATS

For now Kobi seems to be Jahii Carson but hope it works out better for Kobi

PHXCATS

Miller should be higher on that list. I think he is due for his annual $100k raise in April. This would put him at #10, and with the bonus most of which he hits pretty regularly, puts him above Scott Drew at #9 with $0 bonuses. I would love to see him at the top of the list, but #9 ain't bad, espec...

Elliott, Kerr, Stoudamire, Jefferson, Bibby, Dickerson, Iguodala, Buechler, Arenas and Frye are all above anyone Miller had at Arizona although Aaron Gordon is quickly approaching

PHXCATS

As far as the NBA, can that be used against Miller? He has put a good amount of Wildcats into the NBA but none of really become big star. I am not bashing him in any way, I just worry that that could eventually be used against him if someone doesn't really blossom at some point.

PHXCATS

I like it that R&F thinks that playing zone means that certain players don't have to play defense. If a player is constantly missing assignments and not closing out on people in packline man, what evidence is there that he'd all of a sudden be better in a zone? Agree with you and a zone takes away ...

Here's a question I've been pondering: Which has more value? The hype during the ride or the end result? I'd be willing to bet that for recruit and fan interest, there is far more value in how the season unfolded (only losing to a few top-20ish teams, winning without Trier, the @ UCLA beat down, pu...

With Twitter and Coaches, do coaches use twitter a lot?
