Fans praise new Arizona coach
• I was very impressed by coach Miller’s sincere regard for the student athletes; the ones he left behind and for his new team’s athletes. His concern came across several times and you could tell it was heartfelt.
I think Livengood pulled off a major coup by getting this guy! Congrats to the UA athletic department.

• Sean Miller will be awesome! He is a winner in every respect plus graduates nearly all of his players.

Re: Chase Budinger leaving for NBA
• Chase and Jordan will both get first-round money but playing time might be tough to come by. Thanks for the memories. You guys were saviors this year. Nic, be our savior next year!

• Being self-confident is one thing, but overconfident is entirely different. There are a lot of big bodies in the NBA and strength will be huge. I am not sure that Chase or Jordan are strong enough.

• Hill has a better chance at playing time and will develop his dribbling and shot skills. For him, it’s a good move. Budinger is more iffy. Many fans have not given him credit, though, for his hustle and the things he did to help the team besides scoring.

• The real issue is how Chase plays against other draft-level guys and even some hungry midmajor talent in those NBA workouts. He could move up or down.
