Re: UA fires women’s basketball coach Joan Bonvicini
Having to coach a basketball team opposite coach Olson is not an easy position to be in.

She has done a remarkable job and can leave UA with her head held
high. . . . Good luck in whatever it is you pursue, coach Bonvicini. We
will miss you!

I didn’t know we still had a women’s basketball team. . . .
Seriously, though, I went to a few games and practices of hers and was
always amazed how friendly she was to fans. Nothing like going to a
men’s practice. Good luck in the future, Joan.

Livengood continues to “let go” of these coaches, but he still has
to pay them! So now he has to hire someone and pay them, too? . . . He
should take whatever he owes to these coaches he continues to “let go”
out of his pocket. He should be the one going.

Re: UA men’s basketball team
How about Kevin O’Neill this year. A guy brought in to shore up a
lacking defense. So where does Arizona rank in opponents’ field goal
percentage, the truest measure of a good defensive team? UA is 56th out
of the field of 65. Wonderful. He doesn’t have it. Period.
