'That's what you're going with?'
Disturbing. Appalling. Unsettling. That pretty much sums up my decision to re-watch Sunday's game. Trips put a nice bow on it, except for the part about making me look at how open Gary Johnson would have been, had J'Covan Brown actually had on his point guard hat at the time. My only consolation...
Texas vs. Arizona and the Nation Post Mortem
The finality of the NCAA tournament is as painful as a kick in the Onions! Especially when the elimination game comes down to one possession. Unfortunately, because I’m a Texas fan, the manner in which the Horns were eliminated wasn’t all that surprising. In live game situations, it’s usually a...
Texas-Arizona Quick Scout And Game Thread
Some quick Arizona thoughts that should help you get a feel for what they're about. I've watched them play two full games, so I'm practically an expert. This is also your game thread. Wildcat Strengths - Derrick Williams is the most efficient multifaceted scorer in college basketball in recent...
Gary Johnson Will Draw Derrick Williams
And that's the right call. A lot of people assumed that Tristan Thompson would cover Arizona's 6-8 240 pound terror, but I argued otherwise yesterday and it looks like Rick B agrees. Here's why it's the smart move: 1. If you put Tristan on Williams, Williams will take Thompson out to the 3 point...
Cat tracks: The time Solomon Hill thought Ellen DeGeneres was 'swag'
During last season's Elite Eight run, talk-show phenom and post-Oprah star Ellen DeGeneres brought on Wilbur and Wilma Wildcat, and she predicted that Arizona would take their talents to the NCAA Championship game. If you watch TV or follow the...
Video: More, better Derrick Williams buckets from Manila
More than a week ago, I found some grainy footage of real-time hoopage from the NBA players exhibition outing in Manila, Philippines. Despite the glut of already established NBA stars on the American team's roster, one Derrick Williams, formerly of the University of Arizona, found himself playing...
The Arizona Wildcat All-Rebecca Black Team
I know what you're thinking: "What in God's name do Rebecca Black and sports have to do with one another? And why are you posting snappy pop songs by a 14-year-old on this blog?" I can't say I have a good excuse, other than there's not a whole lot going on in sports these days (but thank goodness...
Derrick Williams will be looking sharp for the 2011 NBA Draft
Esquire caught up with former Arizona Wildcat Derrick Williams to discuss the only thing left to be discussed -- his draft-day look. What will he be rockin'? Williams wouldn't exactly say, but did point out that he was going to keep it stylish, not off the wall, yet fresh. Via Esquire: Didn't want...
Derrick Williams might have punched his ticket to Minnesota
So Derrick Williams goes to work out with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Instead of a traditional head-to-head with another top big man, if there really are many comparable bigs in the 2011 NBA Draft, the T'Wolves did something a little strange. They put Williams in a workout with guards. And, uh,...
Derrick Williams versus Kyrie Irving: Who's No. 1?
Either Duke Blue Devil Kyrie Irving or Arizona Wildcat Derrick Williams will be taken first by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2011 NBA Draft. By now, it looks just about settled at that, and we'll make the obvious assumption that the ailing Cavs won't trade that pick away. Irving seems to be the...
