    Wonder if this lands us the younger Nowell? Probably not and ends up at Wazzu or Zoogs.

    Rumor is they are hot after Tommy Lloyd. 20+ year assistant.

    EWU player just transferred to Arizona over the weekend.

    EWU and Gonzaga scrimmaged against one another all last fall almost daily.

    Purely coincidental, I'm sure.

    I just don’t think a program like Arizona should go after a 20 year assistant. That’s what Washington does.

    i do think the #zaga job is lloyd's when he wants it, who knows how long that will be though.

    i do think lloyd is the reason #zaga's recruiting has taken off.

    i do think the miller family reunion will be chinteresting this year.

    im interested to see how arizona fucks this hire up when they get luke walton or stoudamire.

    It's kinda funny to read the Arizona boreds today. I figured they'd kinda be ok with this since Miller has been just OK by Arizona standards and there's the whole cheating thing.

    They are losing their fucking minds. Acting like the school just fired a perennial final 4 coach.

    It's already contractual - Lloyd is the coach in waiting.

    Few has two young kids. He's not done by any means. Lloyd is going to end up being Bill Guthridge if Few doesn't move aside in the next couple years. The guy is 46 years old. He's going throw miss his shot.


    Lloyd is the recruiter. Few is the strategist.

    Steve Kerr may be available. Luke Walton once went 38-1 at Golden State. Kerr once won three championships at Golden State

    Players matter in the NBA. Kerr would probably be pretty good in college and Luke might be too

    Kerr would be great in the faggotry of the leftist university setting. Just don't schedule any road games at American University in Beirut. Too soon?

    TTTTT, I know.

    The love for Miller from that fan base has always confused me. They recruit at a top 5 level every year yet never went to a final 4 under Miller. Massive under-achievement.

    The Throbber knows insider things about some shit and knows fuck all about some shit.

    It's up to the reader to decide which is which.

    this hire sucks until it doesnt, zona was always strong with the bags.


    them hiring pastner or walton would have been hilarious.

    I’m on record saying Lloyd is a goofball and will likely do poorly. You can say that about almost any coach, but still.

    And the other choice was another ginormous douche, Josh Pastner.

    Instead - player bails on U of A and Go Cuogs! instead.

    Crazy ass off-season.
