'88 is a feature-length documentary about the 1988 Arizona Wildcats basketball team, and the program's fantastic rise under former head coach Lute Olson.

Directed By: Brad Malone and Sean P. Malone

Great things have great beginnings. The '88 team boasted talent the likes of which has rarely been equaled in the annals of college basketball. With stars like Sean Elliott and Steve Kerr leading the way, and a bench so deep opposing teams needed scuba gear just to keep it close, the '88 Cats made their mark on the nation and started an all-out revolution in Tucson, Arizona.
Here's a behind the scenes look at our interview with ESPN analyst Jay Bilas. Jay had great things to say about Lute and Arizona's program. ‪#‎wildabout88‬

Sean Malone was on 1290 this afternoon. He said they are still doing interviews, and expect to see the movie in about a year.

So, so bad.

But I watched the whole thing anyways.
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

In the 80's, 2 things were necessary for a successful team: 1. A horribly dated rap song. 2. A reference to how they don't do drugs or simply to just saying no.
