Pelle has my heart. What an excellent Wildcat.
The rest are pretty cool too.
Awesome group of seniors
Those kids love each other as much as they love Arizona basketball. It's obvious that they want nothing less than a national title. Go get it, seniors.
I would invite Pelle and Love back if they wanted to play another season for a Cash sum. Currently neither will be drafted and Two-Way / Undrafted deals / Abroad may not be worth as much as Mr. Humberto from Los Pollos Hermanos can offer.
However I have a feeling Tommy is going to invite his Son Oumar "Ike Diogu" Ballo back and that will lead to an exodus of Henri and Dylan Anderson.
Also hoping Boswell is paid to leave us. I don't view him as a NBA talent, but I also won't be mad if he goes 7-9 off the bench every game the rest of the way playing off the ball and within himself. This would maybe put him on a late 2nd round radar. Dreamers can dream.
I just realized that Arizona is going to have to replace four starters next season.
At this point, I am trying to guess who is going to be starting next season, and if they are already on this roster or committed/signed to be on this roster next season.

Boswell could easily get bad advice and be gone too. Presuming that he doesn't thougH I'd bet it looks something like:
Boswell
Bradley
KJ
Carter
Krivas

At this point, I believe Lloyd is going to try to bring in another grad transfer (or two) to bring in some more experience.
This roster is going to be much younger than it was this season, and Lloyd is going to need to find some battle-tested veterans aside from Boswell.

Good article about the Seniors. I'm still not a fan of honoring 1-year "loaners" on Senior Day but it's nice to have experience on a team that obviously wants to make a deep tournament run. I think Pelle's intensity within his speech says enough about the attitude of this team.
