Arizona is 10-0 to start a season for the 7th time in school history, and the last five games have been won by at least 20 points. The 96-62 win over Abilene Christian on Tuesday night came only three days after winning in Alabama, with a long, late flight home in between. And there’s another […]
During its perfect start to the 2025-26 season, Arizona has shown the ability to defend well without fouling while also getting the opponent into foul trouble. Tuesday’s opponent took care of the second half of that equation all on its own. Abilene Christian committed 26 fouls, leading to 38 free throw attempts for top-ranked Arizona […]

It was a coming out party for Brayden Burries on Saturday night in Birmingham, but according to those that decide the Big 12 Conference’s weekly awards it wasn’t the best performance of the past seven days. Burries was named to the league’s Starting Five following his career-high 28-point effort against Alabama in Arizona’s 96-75 win, […]
Arizona will have a new running backs coach for the 2026 season after Alonzo Carter was hired Monday as head coach at Sacramento State.

What will the team get out of its nine-game nonconference season? Arizona will face teams ranked No. 331 and No. 337 in the NET this week. That certainly won’t help the ranking […]
Arizona men’s basketball’s grip on the No. 1 ranking strengthened Monday. Arizona received 42 first-place votes in this week’s Associated Press Top 25 poll, nine more than last week. No. 2 Michigan got 15 first-place votes, while three went to No. 3 Duke and one to No. 4 Iowa State. The Wildcats are ranked No. […]
Pitching was a big reason why Arizona made it back to the College World Series last season. The return of many key arms for 2026 makes it likely the Wildcats will again have a stellar staff. Who guides those pitchers, however, is uncertain. Michael Lev of the Arizona Daily Star is reporting that pitching coach […]
A pair of pep talks propelled Brayden Burries’ best scoring night of his career in Arizona’s dominant win over Alabama. The first came before tip-off, when Arizona coach Tommy Lloyd spoke with the freshman guard one-on-one. “Before the game, he talked to me and was like, ‘It’s gonna be a big one tonight, and I […]
Based on his pedigree coming in to college, it was presumed by many that Brayden Burries would step on the court and just dominate. Kind of like how Koa Peat did in his first collegiate game and most since. Not everything happens instantaneously. And some things, like Burries’ breakthrough performance on Saturday night, are worth […]

Arizona volleyball’s successful season may be over, but that doesn’t mean the news out of the program has ceased. This week was especially busy. Head coach Rita Stubbs now has a complete staff, another player is leaving the Wildcats, and Jordan Wilson continues to get postseason love. Arizona has a full staff at last Stubbs […]
While Arizona’s coaching staff remains intact for the time being it now has a big hole to fill in its front office if it wants to maintain the momentum it’s built this season. John Brice of Football Scoop is reporting that general manager Gaizka Crowley is leaving to take the same position at Arkansas under […]
With the success Arizona has had this season it was inevitable that one or more of its assistants would garner interest for coaching openings across the country. That appears to be the case with running backs coach/assistant head coach Alonzo Carter, who is among the top candidates for the head coaching opening at Sacramento State. […]
On Tuesday, Arizona women’s basketball head coach Becky Burke talked about how she “loved me a good kids’ day game.” On Wednesday morning, the Wildcats held on to defeat Eastern Kentucky 87-83 in front of thousands of Tucson school kids at McKale Center. “It was amazing,” Burke said. “The kids were great. It’s a different […]
