I got Arizona winning this and possibly be the only team to make it to the dance from the conference.

Go Beavers! If there was ever a time to start playing to your potential...it's now!

Go Cougs!!

Hoping for Wazzu naturally, but I think UCLA can make a serious run in this tournament.

Nice to see that stellar Beaver defense came to play today. I wonder if there is a Pac-12 team that we've held to under 55% shooting this year. Dunk after dunk after dunk.

Quote:

Arizona announced that freshman point guard Josiah Turner has been suspended indefinitely due to a violation of team rules. If Turner doesn’t return to the program next year, as Jeff Goodman Tweeted was possible, it would mark the second straight year an Arizona point guard has departed the program. Lamont “Momo” Jones parted ways with the program after last year and landed at Iona. “Josiah Turner has been suspended indefinitely from our basketball team for a violation of team rules,” head coach Sean Miller said in statement. “I am disappointed in Josiah for his actions. Unfortunately this suspension comes at a time of great excitement an opportunity for our team. However, the standards of our program will not be compromised under any circumstances. Hopefully, Josiah will learn a valuable lesson from this experience.” Turner, a 6-foot-3, 192-pound freshman guard from Sacramento, Calif., is averaging 6.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game in 29 appearances this season (17 starts). He’s started 16 of the last 17 games for the Wildcats. Turner will not accompany the team to Los Angeles for the Pac-12 tournament.

Don't like Arizona's chances. Virtual road game against UCLA tomorrow, although the arena was bordering on morgue status (thank god they are moving this thing to Vegas soon), then Washington who they do not match up well with at all.

Only caught the 2nd half of Oregon State today after work, but glad they showed up for once, it's been a while.

I am surpised that Turner made it this long at Zona. I thought he would be done by the 1st of the year.
