OVERALL
Steve Fisher has made the Aztecs a serious program and one of the most consistent out west in the last five years. This year should be another good year with the return of their talented trio from last season in Franklin, Tapley,and Thames. The Aztecs add a top 100 recruit along with two talented sophomore transfers in O’Brien and Polee and the future looks very bright. The future is now in San Diego with a team that could very well be a surprise Final Four member.
