FINAL RECORD
19-15, 8-10, seventh in Pac-10.

WHAT WENT RIGHT
Freshman guard Jerryd Bayless was dynamite. Sophomore post Jordan Hill emerged as a legitimate force in the Pac-10. The Wildcats continued to play hard for interim coach Kevin O'Neill through the entire season, despite all the turmoil.

WHAT WENT WRONG
The Wildcats finished with fewer than 20 wins for the first time in 21 seasons. Sophomore Chase Budinger, after being voted Pac-10 Freshman of the Year a season earlier, was good, but not as consistently excellent as the Wildcats needed. Injuries and a lack of depth, not to mention the unsettled coaching situation, plagued the Wildcats.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"Every program has to rebuild at some point." -- Graduating senior guard Jawann McClellan on the Wildcats' uncertain future.

We could not have picked (or lucked into) a better year The Maui Invitational...
No UNC, Duke, Kansas, UCONN, or anybody else who has any legit chance to just smoke the competition. Hell, we may even be able to put up a shot...maybe a distant shot...of winning it all.

Here is the field...

(POLL) Now that Momo is a Wildcat should Miller still go after Derrick Williams?  Are we using too many scholarships on '09 to save the streak?  Will we regret using so many scholarships when so many from the classes of '10 and '11 seem to have Arizona on their favorites lists?  Will there be some transfers to open up scholarships now that the incoming class is loo ...(more)

(POLL) OK, the Wildcat recruiting class is, at last final.  I think in light of the past few years, we are all pleasantly surprised at a minimum.  Now, I'm asking myself, is it really a great class or are we just relieved to have a quantity of decent players again?  From the various posts, I see some differnces of opinion on just how good this group is.

Here's the poll question.

Now that we have seen the amazing job Miller has done with recruiting what do you guys think are realistic expectations? I believe with this recruiting class and with the fall of USC we can finish in the top 3 of the PAC 10 the optimistic side of me would like to think we have a chance at winning the PAC 10 but i believe we will extend the streak and possibly make a run into the sweet 16 with the ...(more)

Okaay, so we have ten. That will work. I've pulled names out of a hat and the draft order is set. Begin making your picks. Instead of copying and pasting all the rounds in every post, let's limit it to the round we're conducting at the time and the previous round. You should use this post t copy and paste each new round. Put a dash by your name and then add the player you select. Put the pla ...(more)

(POLL) I've been asked by a couple of different Memphis fans if I'd heard anything about a home and home with Memphis.  I, unfortunately, haven't heard a thing.  I do, however, think it would be a perfect fit for both clubs.  Both teams love Pastner and want the best for him.  Both clubs are working with new coaching staffs and hoping to keep the magic going that was started by p ...(more)

If this is the case, all I've gotta say is:

Coach Miller, You and your staff should kick off your shoes, put your feet up, enjoy a nice cold beer and some time with your family's this weekend! You've earned it!

So unless I am severely mistaken, this means that we are officially (and thankfully) out of the Lance Stephenson sweepstakes.

(POLL) Today is the 2009 NBA Draft.  As always it is a proud day to be an Arizona Wildcat fan with Mr. Jordan Hill a virtual lottery lock and most likely a top 9 pick.  But after I scoured the 2009 NBA Mock Drafts on the internet (O.K. I only had enough time during the work day to look at 9 different mock drafts all of which were updated today) I found myself asking one questions:

Last year Arizona barely got in by the skin of their teeth, lets hope Miller has some good connections back in the east coast to bring in a couple of good prospects. If Arizona wins the NCAA tournament great, but I'm more concerned about them even playing in it. You can't win if you don't play.

One man's trash is another man's treasure.
I personally would much rather had Reggie Theus over that bum! The guy had Jerryd Bayless, Jordan Hill, Chase Budinger and Nic Wise on his starting line up and couldnt do squat.  I am glad he is at USC cause that way we can dominate them until they drop O'Neil and find a quality coach.  Great hire Trojans...FOR US!

I heard it's official. Lamont Jones will suit up for Sean Miller and the Wildcats next year!
This is huge for Arizona's depth.

GOAZCats.com is reporting that Lamont (Momo) Jones will be visiting the Arizona campus this Thursday.  Apparently there is still interest on both sides.  I think he'll make a great addition.  The added depth at point will give Wise a chance to rest. 

Will Arizona make an offer?  We'll leave that up to Miller.  Whatever he decides will be the right decision
