Arizona basketball coach search: Josh Pastner speculation for Wildcats job on the rise

The Arizona basketball coaching search continues to drag on, and speculation surrounding one possible candidate is on the rise.

That candidate is familiar to many Wildcats fans: Josh Pastner, the current coach at Georgia Tech.

The Arizona Daily Star's Bruce Pascoe reported Monday that Pastner had "generated interest" from Arizona.

Arizona has reportedly interviewed Gonzaga assistant Tommy Lloyd, Pacific coach Damon Stoudamire, Los Angeles Lakers assistant Miles Simon and Jason Terry, an assistant on Miller's staff last season.

Lloyd is considered by many to be the "frontrunner" for the position, while Stoudamire, Simon and Terry are all former Wildcat players.
