Well, Lute Olson has made it official.  He is not going to be coming back this season so he can deal with family issues. 

"There are personal issues within my family that need to be addressed and I must devote my full energy to that." - Lute Olson

I am sort of wondering what kind of family issues a 73 year old man has.  His children?  His grandchildren?  I don't know, but whatever it is, I hope he can get it resolved.

Kevin O'Neill will finish the year as the interim coach.  He was originally hired on to be the head assistant coach this past off-season.

Arizona is currently ranked 22nd and have a 5 - 2 record.  They will travel to Illinois for a matchup on Sunday.  

*Update:  Lute Olson's "family issues" seem to be marital problems.  Wow, I didn't see that one coming.
