U of A fans - where do you think your program stacks up nationally?

Arizona never offered a blank check because they don't have one. The absolute highest highest they can go is $3.5 annually but would prefer being the $2.5-$3 range.

That was overheard by a MCA 'source' at a donut shop. I'd take the whole 'blank check' report with a grain of salt.

Come on they have pics of him in the donut shop.



Not sure why I couldn't find that to link it after seeing it but thanks for the link.

The blank check "quote" is completely false. If Arizona had a blank check offer Calipari would already be Arizona's coach.

Or Pitino, Dixon, etc.

When a program issues a blank check they get whoever they want. See Kentucky 2009 and Alabama 2007. We have a budget, a solid one that on paper should get us a pretty damn good coach but a budget nonetheless. We'll see in the next few days, Arizona in my opinion has three or four more coaching options left that could keep things going without pretty much missing a beat. After that things get very dicey.
