OK, so maybe the Wildcats won't be a complete lost cause next season.

New coach Sean Miller got the two things he needed most upon arriving in Tucson to replace interim coach Russ Pennell, who replaced Hall of Famer Lute Olson.

Not a run at the Pac-10 title, mind you, but perhaps at least a top-half finish in the conference.

It starts with Wise, who gives the Cats a very good floor leader and perimeter scorer.

"We are all very excited with Nic's return,"...
