@ironmikeluke Important to note that he was 18. Lotta freshman these days are older than that.

@GaryCrooks @jasonscheer @drakectollshow yes, matt also confirmed scott was never interested in walking “too far down that path.”
thank you, next.
English

For sure. Please put these publications in your tweet below: 247, On3, CBS, Field of 68. Those all reported the same thing. We should have asked the baseball announcer who can’t get BYU out of his mouth. Our bad.
locked on big 12, america’s conference.@LOBig12
what an absolute idiot. spoke with the drew camp. this was never a thing. awful sourcing. putting a good man's name on the line just for a couple of clicks. gross.

@jasonscheer @drakectollshow this is a public account. it has my name. it’s where i tweet about big 12.
he didn’t want the job. i got off the phone an hour ago with confirmation — he did not pursue it.
i’m gonna side with the baylor guy here. not some dude with a beard and small youtube channel.

@ReinOnWildcats Deep draft is our only hope with Peat.
Shallow draft next year: He’d go much higher, especially if he cleans up the shot mechanics.
But I don’t think like them, so …
English

Let me amend this w/ new info:
PG: Shelstad, transfer
SG: Holt, transfer
SF: Ivan, Holmes, James
PF: transfer, transfer
C: Krivas, Sidi, transfer
Leaving: JB, Tobe, Evan, Burries
Probably leaving: Koa, Aristode
Convince to stay: Krivas, Ivan
Matt Rein@ReinOnWildcats
I have some more reflections on this season, next year’s team has the potential to get right back to the Final Four again PG: Transfer (shelsted/johnson) SG: Holt SF: Ivan PF: Koa or Transfer (murauskas??) C: Krivas 6. Aristode 7. Holmes 8. Sidi 9. Bryce

@ironmikeluke The way I look at it: Has the tools. Who is better?
Not seeing any elite PFs in the portal, so far. It’s not a deep position these days.
I would think any big would want to play for Lloyd. They get better.

Thank you all for helping us grow during football and basketball season!!! ❤️
Gonna have a ton of insider-type stuff for you this summer too!!!

@lawjolla @jasonscheer Doleac, 10 years
Miller, 17 years
Mottola, 2 years
Johnsen, cup of coffee, like Simon
No. 7 in the final AP Poll. Beat 1 seeds with future pros Bibby, Terry, Dickerson, Carter, Jamison. Led most of the national title game.
Just lucky, I guess.
English

@GaryCrooks @jasonscheer I'll revise.
88 UA better than Oklahoma.
98 Utah close to dog shit.
Since you like research, go tell me the pros on 98 Utah.
English
@lawjolla @jasonscheer Utah beat two 1 seeds.
Who were some good teams in 1988?
Just Arizona?

English

@GaryCrooks @jasonscheer Yes. Oklahoma and Utah were relatively shitty.
English

@jasonscheer Please remind everyone was really hurts is getting your ass kicked by a shitty team (88/98).
What hurts a lot less is losing to a better team.
English

We’ll be back, Fam. Better team won. Offseason grind starts now !
Michael Luke@ironmikeluke
Still Backing the A!!!!!!

@ironmikeluke @SterkJoe70472 You don’t understand, Mike. He watches all Az sports, INCLUDING basketball.
Special knowledge.
English

@SterkJoe70472 You also said no 1 seed should like by 20
Plus. Happens all the time
English

Wanna give a massive shoutout to Jaden Bradley. @JBsmoovve
The Big 12 POY got us back to the Final 4 and did it with steadiness and class.
Best of luck in the NBA and just know how loved you are in Tucson ❤️

@ironmikeluke Want my hoopers to convert free throws. Glory to 75%.

@ironmikeluke If this is nonfiction, I say yes. They would author many victories.
English
@PeteThamel What would he do in the NBA exactly?
Solid college player.

@ratnerstar @Ike_Saul "Create stories" does not equal "fabricate information", which was explained by many including him at the time.
English
@ironmikeluke After a week of listening to the arrogance of Tar Heels, now it’s entitled Wildcat fans.
A Final Four is great. Team was picked 5th in the Big 12. Swept that rugged non-conference slate.
Sometimes the other team is just better.
Natty or misery is a terrible life choice.
