@mtwentyy They can build whatever type of roster they choose to prioritize. You'll never have exactly the same collection of guys, and Burries and Peat do seem uniquely mature and poised for freshmen, but if Tommy leaves UA he'll bring his philosophy with him. I'm just praying he stays.

No matter what happens with Tommy, UNC and KU will never have this Arizona roster

@UnbiasedBrim1 And that makes it harder to win every year as more and more talented guys are staying in college 3-5 yrs, HS recruiting alone isn't enough to guarantee a top 5 squad. I don't know if Cal minds though. I think that's why his alums adore him. He's genuinely all about his players.

@UnbiasedBrim1 I think they definitely can. Cal has had teams like that before, esp in 2012 with AD, MKG; & the 2015 superteam. IDK if Cal will ever prioritize transfers though. I believe he cares more about mentoring young men than just winning, so the jrs and srs aren't his priority.

The type foul call we dealt with tonight. Arizona is an excellent team tho

@UnbiasedBrim1 Kharchenkov too. When Tommy was looking for a SF this off-season to replace Carter Bryant, many fans presumed it would be a classic 3-and-D. Ivan's shooting is just OK, but he's a strong finisher for that position (obv defense was key also). But you get what you prioritize. (4)

@UnbiasedBrim1 Even the move for Burries over Alijah Arenas, who ended up at USC, bothered a lot of AZ fans at the time b/c Arenas's dad is an Arizona legend. But Burries gets downhill into the lane, and when he shoots J's they're controlled. Arenas is more athletic but he's a fadeaway guy. (3)

@jasonscheer Peat, Awaka, Krivas, and Kharchenkov will all benefit a lot.

@jasonscheer I think that benefits Arizona. The interior finishing and midrange will be helped more by soft rims than the 3s will, and Az obviously shoots more 2s and fewer 3s than Ark. It really stuck out to me in the 1st round that the rims were unforgiving and it seems to hurt the 'Cats.

Early observation: These are the softest rims in basketball history.

@bigcontentguy @BarstoolBigCat lmao!

@BarstoolBigCat not enough TSA agents to push him through the metal detectors

Breaking News Florida Hulk showed up for the Sweet 16 even though Florida was bounced. Dedication to ball or too much faith in his team and non refundable travel plans?

@jasonscheer Kipp has seemed like the second worst ref for Arizona that I've seen this worse, but he's still not in the same class with Padilla. So I suppose I can't complain too much.

Kip Kissinger, Lee Cassell, Steve Anderson are the refs. Kissinger has done multiple Arizona games, including the Big 12 title game. Cassell did Arizona at Baylor. Anderson did Arizona against SDSU

@brycejallday "Big Pig Aidsap" is not a journalist, sweetheart. Just block and report. Whether Lloyd will end up at UNC I can't tell you, but he won't be disrespecting his players like that on the biggest game day of the year. If he did, it'd be a red flag for future employers anyway.

I know MJ is a legend, but meeting at the airport on gameday is crazy 👀👀 there really may be some smoke to these rumors..

@GoodmanHoops The lyin’, the bitch, and the wardrobe

@JustFly_Jones @ironmikeluke But you're right it would be expensive for them. Time will tell. I hope he stays. More importantly, I hope this isn't a distraction for the team today. His answer yesterday about not being easily distracted if anything seemed to me to make that worse bc he didn't shut it down.😬

@AlanChess4 @ironmikeluke Vegas odds, always change. Is UNC ready to buyout HD and Tommy’s contacts and still have enough to fund a team for next season? Unlikely.

I would be pretty surprised if Tommy Lloyd isn’t the coach at Arizona next season. Some common sense things have to happen but I don’t believe he has any real desire to leave #BacktheA

@JustFly_Jones @ironmikeluke You can look at the Kalshi history, it was never that high. At 11 AM AZ time yesterday (he posted 11:22) it was 9.6%. It was shortly after his post that it started climbing. It peaked at 30.5% about 7pm AZ time y'day. Now 24.7%.

@Pac12Refugee @Darth__Devil @jasonscheer @loriburkhart @KellanOlson @WildcatAgenda Thankfully I had screenshots to nail the liar!

@AlanChess4 @Darth__Devil @jasonscheer @loriburkhart @KellanOlson @WildcatAgenda Nancy Drew over here

@Darth__Devil I see you scrubbed your Twitter of Tommy Lloyd posts and changed your name from "@AlexRiveraCBB, UNC alum" to "Darth Devil." You don't suppose below fake post that says Lloyd to UNC was 57% could be an issue since it was below 13%? People might bet on that info?

@Pac12Refugee @Darth__Devil @jasonscheer @loriburkhart @KellanOlson @WildcatAgenda I was quoting the fraud here on Twitter warning it looks like Tommy's out when 1 of quoted posts was "unavailable". Soon all were. He'd posted dozens. The last said big news coming, as if deal was done. Then someone said he should be sued for defamation & he deleted all evidence!

(To those tagged, excuse the duplicate post, it looked like the first one hadn't posted properly.)

@JustFly_Jones @ironmikeluke Correction: reliable reports are he's a top candidate. Reports firmly claiming he was gone were from a Devils fan masquerading as a journalist to either troll UA fans or sow chaos before the S16. He deleted evidence already to cover up faking Kalshi odds. x.com/AlanChess4/sta…

@AlanChess4 @ironmikeluke I hear u, thanks for info if all is true. But I mean, might as well stop recruiting for Arizona if Holt isn’t a factor? Top 3 player in the nation, chose Arizona, & chose Tommy because of what he made it. I just don’t see him leaving next szn especially after this year.
