Former Arizona Wildcats star Miles Simon visited the team in the Bahamas for their exhibition tour, and he came away impressed enough to go on a Twitter binge last night.
The Final Four MVP touched on pretty much everyone on the Wildcats, but the first things of mention were of the most importance. Simon said that Mark Lyons looked like the seasoned vet he's expected to be at the point guard slot, and that was backed up by his few turnovers in the exhibition games. Meanwhile, Kevin Parrom looks healthy and ready to contribute in different ways.
And Solomon Hill , who could have a Pac-12 Player of the Year type of season, should be the rock on this year's team.
Check out the jump to see all of Simon's tweets.
