Arizona head coach Tommy Lloyd pushed back on outside noise this week, saying he’s not a “multitasker” as rumors have connected him to the open North Carolina job.
With the Wildcats preparing for Saturday’s Final Four game against Michigan, Lloyd said his focus remains on Arizona’s immediate task rather than any speculation about potential coaching moves.
Final Four preparation takes priority
Arizona is set to face Michigan in the national semifinals on Saturday, a stage that demands full attention as teams finalize scouting, game plans and rotations. Lloyd’s comments came as the Wildcats continue their preparation for the matchup, with the coach stressing that he is locked in on what’s in front of his team.
The North Carolina opening has generated widespread discussion across the sport, but Lloyd’s message was clear: he is concentrating on Arizona’s pursuit in the NCAA tournament and not engaging with distractions during Final Four week.
