Raise The Banner: Arizona Dropped A Mixtape For Their Student Managers, Instantly Buy Into Them As A Title Contender

Arizona is one of those teams who could win a title. They fall into the category and even with Caleb Love's disaster from the NCAA Tournament last year in my mind, I still think they can win. That's now raised even more after seeing this. I know it's manager appreciation week, but how many are dropping mixtapes? It's perfect too. Got the mop duty, got some dunks, towel work, everything a manger should do. They are the glue piece of a team. You can't win a title without decent managers and I only see Arizona dropping a mixtape for them. 

I love it because of how absurd it is. We get mixtapes for everything now, highlight tapes for nobodies in high school that go viral thanks to the same accounts. But managers? Yeah, give me those mixtapes. Show the boys getting the chairs ready for a timeout. Show the hustle of wiping up wet spots and sweat. Those are the guys who deserve it before the games start. 

Remember when Arizona was 4-5? Yeah, they are 18-8 now, a top-4 seed in the NCAA Tournament and 2 games back of Houston in the Big 12. Gotta credit the managers for keeping the team together during that stretch. That, or, Henri Veesaar looking like a pro after Krivas got hurt. Either way, Arizona is on the short list for title teams after seeing this.
