When was the last time you felt good about Arizona basketball?
Not in a “that was a nice win and winning is fun” kind of good, but in a “you know what, this program might be on the right track” kind of good.
A few months? A year? Maybe it’s been two or three years, dating back to when Deandre Ayton committed to the program.
Those good feelings were short-lived as the scandal that has since enveloped much of the program hit before Ayton, and what was thought to be a Final Four-caliber team, ever took the court.
