Looked it up: The greatest basketball player in Arizona history, Sean Elliott, was 38-13 against non-conference teams in the regular season from 1985-86 to 1988-89.

Former USC coach and Arizona coaching candidate Tim Floyd is thankful for the third-ranked Wildcats visiting the Don Haskins Center on Friday.

Three down, two more All-American teams in sight today. Scooby Wright was named a Sporting News All-American today after earning that status on the AP team yesterday. He can become Arizona’s first unanimous All-American since cornerback Chris McAlister earned that honor in 1998. The All-American teams of the Football Writers Association of America and the American Football Coaches Association are upcoming. Wright was selected a Walter Camp All-American last week.

Will Arizona wear copper helmets with their red tops in the Fiesta Bowl two weeks from today? They have not worn the copper lid this season.

Arizona junior college recruit Paul Magloire, an impact safety from Arizona Western, signed today and will attend classes in the spring. His roommate at Arizona Western, tight end Raymond Epps, is headed to ASU. Should make for interesting stories ahead in the Territorial Cup games.

Joining Magloire as Arizona JC signees today are DL Anthony Fotu and TE Matt Morin. Magloire once played quarterback at Appalachian State and Morin, a former quarterback at San Diego State is another Scottsdale Chaparral product who will join former coach Charlie Ragle at Arizona. He has played tight end at Riverside (Calif.) Community College the last two seasons. Fotu, of Laney College in northern California, has an opportunity to play right away with defensive tackle Dan Pettinato exhausting his eligibility.

This could have been a banner day for Michigan, which proved to be too hasty in not allowing Rich Rodriguez to finish what he started in Ann Arbor.

One of Arizona’s leading sports ambassadors.

Andre Iguodala should go into acting once his NBA career is over no matter what the refs think.
