You know you can score when you turn it over 21 times and still average 1.23 points per possession.

I can't remember the article, but it about was about Arizona football and it referenced like 14 different years in the article that wasn't 2021 or 2022. It's just the same shit over and over.

The biggest learning lesson from this game is Koloko and AT need to get engaged early in the game. Teams are going to make those two work their assess off to get into a halfcourt offense.

Tennessee outplayed us.

Tennessee made as many free throws as Arizona attempted and Arizona turned the ball over 17 times while losing by four. They shot better from 2 and 3 than Tennessee, too.

SabinoDrifter

That was a panicked end to the first half, went from an in and out three miss and being down 2 to being down 13.

SabinoDrifter

They have eight points not from the FT line and to only be down 13 is somewhat remarkable.

SabinoDrifter

Koloko and AT have been horrendous tonight.

SabinoDrifter

Being outshot 18 to 7

SabinoDrifter

Koloko and AT need to make teams pay for the aggressive defense on screens.

That's because they're completely insane about football.

Going to be interesting if better teams start using the "Giannis wall" on the whole team to stop easy transition pts like both teams did this past week. Our half court offense is efficient but it just isn't as explosive as it is in transition (obviously). Arizona has looked worse even less so witho...

Not just triangle and two but actually face guarded both Benn and Kerr and dared the other players left wide open for the most part to beat them. As CTL said in his presser you have to find other ways to affect the game and Benn's rebounding/put backs broke the game open. Exactly and I think CTL ke...

Good luck finding any of that for retail. It's my understanding Brigger has someone he uses locally to sew on the patches because I don't think the University uses the old logo as part of their official branding anymore. I would find some more information on the athletic department website but I kee...

Some statistics from early this season that are very relevant:

- #4 effective field goal % defensively
- #2 2 point field goal % defensively
- #2 in assists / FGM

Arizona's size is a massive advantage for this team and it's no surprise it comes in parallel with Koloko's development.

Also, the second loudest cheer of the night is when NDSU's last possession three hit the over.

SabinoDrifter

You can tell Koloko is just so much more confident than he was a year ago.

Also, seeing these guys in person twice thus far, they are FAST. And they're 6th in average possession length.

SabinoDrifter

I think this year's schedule is a mix of not securing enough home and home / COVID / a brand new coach who started late in April. Gonzaga went to the national title game, Baylor won it all and Illinois was a #1 seed, those are some high quality opponents over the last few years.

SabinoDrifter

Oh yeah, that's real nice.

Doge Coin isn’t shady enough for ACE. :lol: I was thinking about PGU and the moron who ran that site, wondering if he's in jail, hanging with Vegas Dave or hawking doge coin.

I'm very much like 97, the turning point was the first round loss against Wichita State in 2016. They went from 1st and 3rd in KenPom in 2014 and 2015 to 29 in 2016 and 2017 and fucking 83rd in 2018 (with the #1 player in the draft who was an athletic freak in the middle) in defensive efficiency.

Anybody know the players’ thoughts? Would there be a mass exodus if Miller is fired? Ask Penn State who just replaced their coach and announced a new one. Yesterday Penn State hired Micah Shrewsberry from Purdue as their new coach. Today 5 players announced they are transferring, 4 of them starters...

This is some piss poor planning all around thrown under the guise of budget concerns so they can blame something on their indecisiveness. They should have contingency planned the shit out of all this the second the allegations came out.

SabinoDrifter

I think we all need to prepare the next couple of years are going to suck if Miller is the coach or isn't the coach. What sucks is if Miller isn't the answer, the program is too toxic for an established name to uproot and move to Tucson, but also tantalizing enough for an up and comer to make a sign...

Is Dawkins any more credible now? Somebody was lying.

I think a lot of what's happened the last few years is a combination of some bad choices by players, Miller and his staff,some poor talent evaluation and some bad luck. Dovetailing on 97's post, Alonzo Trier was the first elite player I saw Miller completely loathe coaching. He was a very good playe...

If you would read the posts by his brother, Jake, you would know that Max and his family were never happy with his role with Arizona under Miller.
