If he only stays one season it will be because he played himself into the Top 20 of the draft and Arizona is a good team.Rumored to be one season?

If a guy is good enough to get picked in the Top 20, he's usually good enough to get his college team to a respectable level not to mention there will already be Tournament-caliber players on the roster. There are a few exceptions here and there, but probably 90% if not more of the college players picked in the Top 20 come from Tournament teams.Slow down turbo...if he only stays one season and plays himself into the top 20, it means he's a top 20 player...It doesn't mean ua is a good team.

I guess nobody taught you how to support an argument. Feel free to check the last few years on the ratio of players drafted in the Top 20 on non-Tournament teams compared to those on Tournament teams. And I'm guessing the ratio is even higher for point guards.I guess nobody ever taught you about assuming?
I meant to quote this once again in my last post...Assuming...
Why are you trying to start a fight? I'm "assuming" that that's what you are doing.
Intersting article that certainly has some merit, but the author loses credibility with me when he suggests Mustafa Shakur and Ivan Radenovic are NBA players.Another unflattering article on Lute. I think he overstates the talent a bit on Arizona he makes it sound like UA lost in the first round with 6 Mickey D's all americans or something(Coach K).
Next year will be intersting for Arizona basketball one way or the other. Many around the program have deservedly thrown Mustafa under the bus for the last four years, but if the underachieving continues next yar then I'm guessing there will be some change around the program that could include Lute.
I never said they would fire him, but I can see the powers that be putting pressure on him to overhaul the staff and I'm not sure how Lute would handle such a request. Of course this would only occur if Arizona has another poor effort next season which I don't see happening.They will never fire Lute... he's made the program what it is and is a legend in that city. I think his pride will make him step down before anything else were to come up

Thankfully Skkorp and AzBaller are wrong about 98% of the time, so their predictions are actually a good sign of future.
It's not the players, nor the assistants, nor any other trumped up excuse, the problem is Lute Olson. It's his program, his coaches, his players, his scheme.
He's old and he's done. Right now, he's still getting good players. He just can't coach them well anymore.
