Bruce Pascoe This summer, each member of the Star’s sports team will assemble a list of the five most memorable Arizona games they’ve covered since joining the beat. This week, Bruce Pascoe will reflect on five UA basketball games.
"I don’t think he had a clock in his head,” UA interim head coach Russ Pennell said. “I think he thought that Delaney could get all the way to the rim. And he was caught between a rock and a hard place. And instead of just letting him go he made a poor decision and he’s broken up about it.” By the numbers: Only about 10,000 fans attended the game at McKale Center, held less than a month after Lute Olson’s retirement became official, with Mike Dunlap opting to stay in his associate head coach role and Russ Pennell being promoted to interim head coach.
It might have worked. Between that practice and the hours together at their decidedly mid-scale Georgia hotel, with virtually nobody paying attention to them, the Wildcats and Pennell later said they managed to tightly bond in the messy aftermath of Olson’s departure. Yet Horne did not shy away, despite teammates’ efforts to protect him. A small crowd of us approached him gingerly to ask his views on what happened, and he answered questions fully. No waving us away, no eye-glaring, no crying. He just explained what he saw and thought, and then we went away. Throughout his UA career, Horne was always a stand-up guy.
