'Throw a dart on the wall,' UA coach Tommy Lloyd said. 'There’s probably 10 or 20 reasons. We’ve got to be better.'
Bruce Pascoe SALT LAKE CITY — So how did arguably the best shooting team in college basketball almost completely disappear at the Huntsman Center?
"Throw a dart on the wall," UA coach Tommy Lloyd said."There’s probably 10 or 20 reasons. We’ve got to be better."It’s a phrase that Lloyd borrowed from Alabama football coach Nick Saban last season, when he fretted if his Wildcats might get too comfortable after rising to No. 3 in the Associated Press rankings in mid-January.
The Wildcats actually trailed for the entire game, missing their first five field goals and trailing by double-digits most of the time to a team that won just four Pac-12 games a year ago. While center Oumar Ballo hit 10 of 12 field goals for a team-high 22 points, he was an outlier. And while Tubelis finished with 20 points, he was 7 for 19 from the field, with he and and several teammates missing close-in baskets that didn’t exactly have the sort of execution Lloyd was looking for.
