For Star subscribers: Our longtime columnist on the future of baseball in Tucson, the upcoming Lute Olson movie, and why ASU's coaching failures fall on someone other than Herm Edwards.

Greg Hansen The Star's longtime columnist on the future of baseball in Tucson, the upcoming Lute Olson movie, and why ASU's coaching failures fall on someone other than Herm Edwards:

You can imagine the feeling of potential loss within Tucson’s baseball community. This is sure to become a political issue of great magnitude. “I would hate to lose any of the Reid Park fields,” he says. “Pima rents a field every year to use for practice and games while our field is being over-seeded. I also run tournaments every year both in the fall and summer for Fivetool Baseball that attracts players and families from all over to come play in Tucson.

The shrinking baseball presence at the Kino Sports Complex — with many of the baseball fields replaced by soccer fields — has not been a good option. It’s a remarkable story. Sands’ father died of a heart attack in 2012, when Donny, then 15, was a sophomore at Salpointe. Donny Sands was homeless for almost a year, living in his family’s automobile after his mother moved to Mexico to find a full-time job.

Iggy remains Wildcats' income kingAndre Iguodala’s decision to return for a 19th NBA season, with a salary of $2.6 million, makes him by far the highest-paid ex-Wildcat to play in the NBA. His 2022-23 salary will raise his NBA income to $192.4 million. That puts Iguodala ahead of Richard Jefferson’s $116 million; Jason Terry’s $108 million; and Mike Bibby’s $107 million.

My two cents: Devils' disaster the fault of president, ADI think the bungled departure of ASU football coach Herm Edwards reflects more on president Michael Crow and athletic director Ray Anderson than on Edwards’ ability, or lack thereof, as a head coach.During an extended crisis period at rival Arizona — a time the Wildcats fired Sean Miller and Kevin Sumlin and replaced six head coaches — the Sun Devils didn’t make up any ground on their in-state rivals. In fact, they’ve lost ground.
