Watch: 8 best things Sean Miller, Parker Jackson-Cartwright said after clinching Pac-12 title

Back-to-back champs

By Justin Spears / Arizona Daily Star

The last seven days for the Arizona Wildcats has been the definition of a roller coaster.

Last week, Sean Miller was absent when the Wildcats fell to Oregon on the road. Fast forward to Saturday night, Miller climbed the ladder to cut down the net as Arizona clinched the Pac-12 regular season championship in back-to-back years with a win over Cal. 

On Senior Day, the UA honored four seniors in Parker Jackson-Cartwright, Dusan Ristic, Keanu Pinder, and Talbott Denny in their last hurrah at McKale Center. On top of that, Miller announced Rawle Alkins, Deandre Ayton and Allonzo Trier as members of the senior class, because "they won't play in McKale again."

According to Miller's statement, Arizona will lose eight players from this year's team heading into next season. That's a bold move. Miller spoke about it in the postgame press conference, hear what he had to say along with Jackson-Cartwright's final farewell from McKale Center.
