February 23, 2018, a day Arizona Basketball fans will not forget. It was on that day that ESPN reporter Mark Schlabach put out a report claiming from multiple sources that Sean Miller was heard on tape with Christian Dawkins discussing a payment of $100,000 to recruit Deandre Ayton. That tape still has yet to be brought forth.
Since that all went down, the Wildcat basketball program has been impacted on many levels. Recruiting, being in the national spotlight for the wrong reason and having to build the program back up.
