When the 2020-21 college basketball season begins late next month it will be the first time the Arizona Wildcats will be playing since legendary coach Lute Olson passed away in August.
The program that he ran for 25 years plans to pay tribute to Olson in a variety of ways, though just how that will be—beyond a patch on the jersey—and when it will happen is still uncertain, coach Sean Miller said Thursday.
Translation: don’t expect any sort of throwback uniforms from the Olson era this season.
“It wouldn’t surprise me if, moving forward in our program, that we wouldn’t be able to have a tribute to not only Coach Olson but one of the special teams or eras that he was a part of here through our uniforms,” Miller said.
