Olson, who led the Wildcats to Final Four appearances in 1988, 1994, 1997 and 2001 and won the '97 national championship, died in August 2020 at age 85.
Arizona Daily Star The UA will show a video tribute to legendary coach Lute Olson during halftime of Thursday night's game against Stanford in McKale Center. Tipoff between the Pac-12 regular-season champion Wildcats and unranked Cardinal is scheduled for 7 p.m.; the game will be shown on ESPN2.
Due to the pandemic, the UA held off on honoring Olson's life until fans were allowed to gather in McKale Center. Arizona held a public tribute for Olson at McKale last Sept. 12, timed so that many current and former Wildcat players would be able to attend before their seasons began. Thursday's Olson tribute was initially scheduled for halftime of the Wildcats' Dec. 2 conference opener against Washington. The night before the game, however, the Huskies canceled due to COVID-19 issues within their program.
