How many recruits does Lloyd reel in from Deden Thomas, Zoom Diallo, Carter Bryant, Jamari Phillips, Thierry Darlan and Tounde Yousefou?

Lloyds recruiting prowess will be tested once Millers guys leave.

Two maybe...Carter Bryant and Jamari Phillips would be nice!

We're only 20 months removed from Lloyd's hiring and Arizona only has two of Miller's contributors remaining on the roster (Kerr & Tubelis).

It's also likely to land Yousseffou because he would be a likely replacement for Adama Bal (assuming he doesn't transfer between now and his Senior campaign).

You are severely underappreciating Sean Miller's lightning quick mastery of foreign recruiting and the fact Dylan Anderson was essentially a commit of the Miller regime as well. One of which is built like Ayton and is being severely underutilized currently. Vessar probably is only here because Miller brought in Kerr too.

Bal would only leave if he plays professionally or if Tommy continues to purposely suppress his talent. Bal is one of the best players in the nation as far as im concerned. I practically demand 20 minutes from him. Let the kid cook.

I am 100% convinced that Miller's final impact to the program is what has helped Tommy hit the ground running and until this entire wave has passed over he will get credit for all successes whether you like it or not. Especially now that the brass tax is 1 scholarship lost, no one has anything to fear by coming to Arizona except the "Miller Effect" of there being way too much talent.

I was just referencing the contributors on the team. Dylan has a lot of potential and will be a solid player but has a long way to go before he can earn significant time.

Bal is in the same boat. He badly missed wide open shots against Corpus. His shot looks good but he still lacks ball handling skills and defensive positioning. The kid is getting more minutes than he actually deserves.

Miller was an unbelievable recruiter. He was always in the Top 5 with Dook, Kentucky and Kansas. The difference is that he was the only coach to not bring his program to the final four with elite talent.

It's difficult to assume that Miller would have converted any of the above guards into NBA players. With the exception of McConnell (who works harder than any basketball player on earth), Arizona failed to develop any PG's during the Miller era, including Top-100 talent like Josiah Turner.
