    If You're A Rich Rod Doubter...

    Maybe the book is biased then, but since it's written by a UM supporter and journalist, I think it really clears a lot of stuff up for me. All I'm saying was that after being halfway done with the book, it's painting Rich Rodriguez in a much better light. Take that for what it's worth.

    If You're A Rich Rod Doubter...

    @Wily - It just goes inside what was happening at Michigan and why Rich Rodriguez had a lot of problems there, mainly the administration was not on his side. But more importantly, throughout the book, Rich Rod makes it known how much he truly cares about keeping his team healthy and getting them...

    If You're A Rich Rod Doubter...

    I'd read "Three and Out" by John U. Bacon. http://www.amazon.com/Three-Out-Rodriguez-Michigan-Wolverines/dp/0809094665 I know it's been spoken about numerous times in this thread and in others, but the more I read it, the more excited I get about what Rich Rod can do at Arizona.

    Head Coach Candidates?

    Of these 11 open posts, where do you think ASU ranks in desirability? Akron, Arkansas State, Arizona State, Colorado State, Fresno State, Hawaii, Penn State, Southern Miss, Texas A&M, Toledo, and UCLA. I'd say that behind Texas A&M, UCLA and ASU are right there. Which on its own would be...

    Turner did not make the trip to Florida

    Such a stupid mistake, missing practice. And just on the cusp of articles being written about him being named the full-time starter... Hopefully keeping him at home will wake this kid up. I know he's a freshman, and he responded well the last time he was benched (for showing up late to a...

    It's being reported that Fedora is going to North Carolina. http://www.coachingsearch.com/coaching-search-ticker.html

    Reports are Stoops will be fired.

    The more I read about Fedora, the more I'm impressed by him. He sounds like a solid coach.

    Ha, well said Mao. I'll be recording it on my DVR. I predict a 42-24 Wildcat victory...

    Reports are Stoops will be fired.

    Didn't Diaz turn down the DC position here last summer? Not that he wouldn't want a HC position here, I think it makes total sense. Just that I would have thought Byrne might not want someone so high on his list who initially accepted a position here and then changed his mind to go back to...

    Potential Candidates per AZ Republic

    Stop giving me false hope! Let's start talking about OC or DC from big programs or head coaches from obscure schools. That way, if we do land a big name or a great coach, it will be a pleasant surprise. On that note: let's talk about Jerry Moore, Appalachian State's head coach.

    Reports are Stoops will be fired.

    I'm with you on that last point. I'm thinking he could have Dan Mullen high on his list.

    Mao, who do you think would be a good fit?

    Reports are Stoops will be fired.

    June Jones would be on my list... And I could see the whole issue of conference realignment coming into play.

    Sun Devils: New Uniforms, etc.

    Totally agree about the "gold", it's more of a nacho cheese IMO. Hell, look at BC, they have maroon and gold. I do like the black though, I'm just not a fan of that pitch fork.

    Sun Devils: New Uniforms, etc.

    New logo looks like a penis. Not hating, just what I saw. And now it can't be unseen. Like the matte helmets though. To be honest, I was worried that I was going to LOVE these. As a UA fan, I'm happy to report that it looks like ASU missed the boat. There are some nice elements, but overall...

    Lock Down Stoops

    To change up the conversation a bit, how's this for a little idea: Hire Mike Leach as OC. Does that not make a crap-load of sense? It's his offense after-all. He needs to clean up his name a bit and some good years at UA might do that. But will he and Stoops clash? Probably. And here's the...

    Lock Down Stoops

    Nevermind. Last night's game changed me from a believer to someone who believes that Stoops can't do it. I still maintain that he did an amazing job getting the program to where it is: - Getting players drafted to the NFL - 3 consecutive bowl games - I believe we have beat a ranked team in...

    (Accidentally posted this in the ASU section. That sucked. Need more coffee.) Does anyone know if we are planning on recruiting a Punter or a Kicker, perhaps? I know we were in the running for that JC Punter who just signed with that school in Tempe, but with Crier (very appropriate name...

    What do you think we should do? Should we wait for Stoops' contract to expire?

    Lock Down Stoops

    @Chaplin I don't disagree. But I would rather us build a solid program that works its way up to becoming a perennial powerhouse than a flash in the pan. What seems to kill most college programs in our situation is constant changeover at the helm. We aren't Notre Dame. We can't just get the...

    Lock Down Stoops

    @Mao Right, I'm not saying crown the guy King of Tucson or anything. Just give the guy his dues. What we do know is he brought this team out from the grave and took them to a Holiday Bowl. We are competing again in the Pac 10. Mentioning the Cats going to the Rose Bowl is not a complete joke...
