I see what you did there....
Yup.
So who will be Arizona's coach next year?

Good fight, but as always, talent discrepancy + injuries = outmatched
And bonehead mistakes by head coach / QB.
I think the worst mistake made was going for it at midfield. Anu was not perfect, but did enough to put the team in contention to win the game. His interception was because Kern ran the wrong route. 14 point swing there, IMO.
Hard to do much when Baker can't break a tackle and establish a respectable run game. 60 yards rushing for a team whose offense is predicated on running out of the spread. Nick Wilson is sorely must, about as much as Scooby
What a shocker!!! Bear Down Cats!!!
The Pac-12 is a ruin this year.
On our 6th middle LB SMH.
Rich Rod kinda acted like this was his last Territorial Cup game. What do you guys think, is he out the door or what?
OK then TJ, I'll take your word for it. It just seems like every time I turn on the radio, there is Rich Rod to Va Tech buzz, bla bla bla.
Partially true that for whatever reason the Phoenix media is really keen on pushing the Rich Rod to _______ agenda. However Rodriguez himself has used several openings over last few years to leverage a new raise or other thing at Arizona. I think he knows it's basically impossible to win big at a program like UA so I have no issues with him keeping an eye out for bigger jobs.Don't get me wrong, he was (is?) interested; but Fedora, Fuente, and Chad Morris are in the Top 3.
Frankly, the Phoenix/ASU media is going to make sure this thing cycles for as long as it can to damage UofA's reputation and harm its ability to recruit. Example, the Scott Bordow article that came out last weekend as soon as all of the chatter started to quiet down. The same day that Greg Hansen reported that two people in the AD confirmed with him that Rodriguez is staying.

However UA probably has no interest in going through this song and dance every offseason. With Miller it's known - he'd consider leaving for UNC or Duke or Kansas or the NBA but that's it. No stressing unless one of those jobs come open. If he elects to go I'm not going to lose a tremendous amount of sleep over it as long as Byrne is in the fold.
Personally I just want a coach who's quiet (no more hashtags and youtube videos), understands the Arizona job and it's strengths and limitations (let ASU fans delude themselves into pipe dreams that they can win a national title), and has a short list of places they'd go but ultimately wants to build a successful program.
