Sports blogs for fans, by fans.
New Blog: Mid-Major Madness for Mid-Major Sports news!


Welcome Wildcat Fans

Welcome Wildcat fans to the unofficial University of Arizona Wildcat's blog. My name is Joe Newberry and I am a 2002 graduate of the University of Arizona. During my four years of college in Tucson I was truly dedicated to the Wildcats and always desired more information, more stats, and more fan involvement in all of the athletic teams. The purpose of this blog is to reach all Wildcat fans around the nation and world.

My hopes and wishes for this site are to bring together all Wildcats fans to discuss the progress of the athletics of the men and women from our university.  The site will be open to discussions, polls, stats, breakdowns, coaching strategy and recruiting. Any and all sports at University of Arizona are open for discussion.

Keep in mind that I am learning as I go on this new venture and will try to update the site as much as possible. Please pass the word along to any and all Wildcat alumni to check out the site and join in any discussions revolving around Wildcat sports.  I hope you enjoy the site and any feedback is appreciated.

 

Go Cats!

Yes!

I have been waiting for an Arizona site. My brother just graduated from there and UofA is by far my favorite Pac-10 program!

I agree

I’ve been looking for a Zona site for a long time. I’m glad to be here.

Welcome!

I’m still a little bitter about you guys taking the Zags out earlier this year but good luck here! Always good to see more and more blogs from the west!

Awesome! Now all we need is Stanfurd to get an SBN blog. I recommend a Daily Wildcat Dump (DWD) where users can post links to all things Wildcats. The Godfather SBN blog, Athletics Nation, started this and Cal Golden Blogs has also implemented this with much success. Frequently these go very off topic but it makes for good convo.

It sounds like you’re encouraging off-topic commenting which is clearly against the terms of agreement.

Please limit the scope of the discussions to sports.

If we were on BruinsNation you would be banned. Let us hope that ADS does not have an itchy banhammer finger.

Welcome to SBN!

Here’s to many more years of Cal beating the crap out UA in Berkeley, and then traveling to Tuscon the following year and getting beat so that it feels like my heart is torn out, eaten, reconstituted like a chopped up sea sponge, put back in, and torn out again.

Loves both the ambiance and the decor.

In all seriousness

Being a Tucson native- I have seen our basketball program have it’s ups and downs, but this year has official put us at an all time low. Even when we play decent the mental mistake at the end games show that we don’t know how to win.

I think it is time for us to start posting info about the softball team. They are the only proven winning program that the U of A has.

Don't think it's going to get better quickly either

The lack of good recruits wanting to be a part of this program has torn it apart. When a team is on its way down, it’s really tough to keep it from sliding farther and farther. Bayless could’ve saved the program if he stayed for even one more year.

Hey Joe

Hey Joe, best of luck with the SB Nation Blog.
I’ve been running an Arizona blog for the past few weeks on wordpress. Maybe we can put our heads together and produce a wider range of topics and areas than one person alone can really do.

Check out my blog and let me know what you think.

I hate UA.

CAAAAAAAAAAAATS

This site looks great! Lets get some early turns in before every Cat Boy, Cat Girl, Catman, and Catwoman answers their call to duty! Whether you think your a cat or not, come on down, this world will never be free until Duke Vitale Shuts His Fat Mouth! Put an end to the East Coast Bias and drop the facts! I am coming out of the boooooooooooth!

Newby

You, you’re good you. Can you start a petition section to send Horne to ASU? If he played half as good as he is dumb, we would be in first place.

AZ Athletics

Can we start a petition to fire Jim Livengood? The way he has handled our coaching situation has been atrocious. We’ve lost recruits and our reputation.

NEWBY, love the site!

Welcome!

Beware of insane Golden Blogs members. Only a few of us bite.

If I were to pick a Pac-10 basketball program after Cal it would surely be the Wildcats, despite the pain and misery they have caused by school.

As you can see, Cal fans are all over the internet. We even took over the Oregon blog. But welcome to SBN! Now me must all pressure our Stanfurd acquaintances (god forbid we have friends there) and tell them to start a blog so all ten Pac-ten schools have one! Good luck!

Go Bears!

Welcome aboard

We’ve almost got the entire Pac-10 covered …
