Arizona basketball: Wildcats have a ‘responsibility’ to play other teams in the West

Sean Miller was “really happy” how the Arizona Wildcats’ non-conference schedule shook out this season, and not just because of the quality of opponents and the wide variety of styles his team played against.

Miller believes Arizona has a responsibility to compete against the other top programs in the West, and he thinks the Wildcats did that this season and in recent years, in general.

For example, in recent reasons Arizona has played schools like San Diego State, UNLV, UTEP, and New Mexico State, and this season the Wildcats played Gonzaga, Grand Canyon, Texas A&M, and New Mexico.
