Last year, Arizona added a former star player to the coaching bench at the college and NBA levels when they brought in Damon Stoudamire. While at the UA, he was a Pac-10 Player of the Year and consensus first-team All-American in 1995. He also won the NBA's Rookie of the Year award and went on to set a Portland Trail Blazers team record with 54 points in a game against the New Orleans Hornets in 2005. Of course, he's also notorious for being arrested with marijuana in his pocket while traveling through Tucson International Airport in 2003 Take a look at Damon through the years.
