    I've heard from a pretty legitimate source that Romar is actually a sleazy douche. That the humble religious coach guy is a ploy and that the kids mostly see through it.

    Definitely calling bullshit on this. Romar's players love him for a reason, and it sure as hell ain't his coaching.

    His character isn't in question. His ability definitely is.

    They are playing great D, and Wilcox has matured into a very good player.

    Romar stripped his program down to bare wood and is rebuilding. And the job appears to be ahead of schedule.

    Defense has never been a problem under Romar Aubs, but there's only so many fast breaks off turnovers. Romar has NEVER had a disciplined and organized offensive unit, and 5, 6-6 swings won't get you to the final 4

    I'm aware his players love him. The ones that come to the dub pretty much always do. This is a guy in coaching who competed with him for recruits.

    I also know one of the better recent players and I can tell you that he has nothing but respect for Romar.

    Why is anyone getting excited? UW is horrible. And like EVERY YEAR, it's because we have nobody down low. Nobody can play around the basket. Time to nip this shit in the bud! Stop this madness

    you're probably right, but since Simmons came back they've played some really good basketball. Only loss being to #1 Arizona in Tuscan in a game they led late in the game. If they win @Cal tonight you can start talking tourney. They have a quality win and a win that can become a quality win if ASU improves 9 spots into the top 50

    No.
