Downsides. UA about to break a 64 year old record for team scoring. Well, I would go on the under on that. 1. Tate is injury prone 2. Cats lose one of their all time leading rushers in Nick Wilson 3. Cats lose their short yardage TD guy in Nick Green 4. JJ Taylor is listed at 5'6", so not an everyd...

If you don't fire RR now and don't extend, then you might as well keep RR for the next two seasons. I don't see an upside to firing RR after next season after you have committed to paying him the rest of the retention money and create a situation where you provide Kahlil Tate a new offense package,...

Another thing to keep in mind is both Yates and Magee contracts will need to be renewed soon. Next month or two. Both of their two year contracts come to an end. So you can have situation where they are renewed for 1 or multiple years and no extension for RR

RazorsEdgeAZ

Just to clarify. RR has 2 seasons left on his contract. Not to be confused with 3 years left. As of now, his contract expires May 2020. 2.5 years left on contract. Or, after this class, two signing classes left on his existing contract. RR's buyout if Fired today would be about $5 million. UA admin ...

I don't like it but think it's necessary. Still say 9 wins or the axe next year. Not apples to apples comparison but think we all would enjoy 9 win season. In modern era (I count it as 1962, start of WAC days) UA has had only six seasons with 9 or more wins. And four of those happened back in the d...

Damn Harvey... Why are you misrepresenting what I wrote? I didn't write or claim that coaching is not "our" problem as you responded. What I wrote is... "Maybe it's not all on the coaches". As in just not the coaches responsible for the poor performance of the UA program. Maybe UA can't lure or keep...

Need to put some perspective on RR and UA football program. RR now owns half of the winning conference records the UA program has had the last 19 years. He now has two. RR is the only coach since UA joined the Pac to improve his teams conference record by 4 games from one year to the next. RR has a...

Case in point. So, do you honestly think this Arizona defense is good? An average USC offense threw down 49 duckets on these guys. Oregon State schooled them in the second half. Want to pretend like everyone did with Casteel’s defense or are we gonna live in reality here? USC is not an average offe...

Think it's a good schedule. Pretty damn good. UA plays same 5 South teams every year. No change year in, year out expect quality of those teams.

What I haven't heard yet is what is the ultimate plan in regards to finishing renovations at McKale? Anybody get info on that?

Here is the Plan Eastside gets renovated next two seasons. They already put seats in the level above the student section so they are mostly improving the concessions/restrooms on that side as well as activating the stadium club space better. They are using the new student fee to do this work as the...

This is a long-term, maybe forever battle now for college football. For the Pac12, until at least 2025 when a new TV contract kicks in. It stands out the attendance drop-off since 2012 and new ESPN/Fox deal and launch of P12 network. So there's the main battle. With the long-term attendance issue, U...

I fall into the camp that TV is the main factor in lower attendance. Then cost, KO times. Not just a UA issue, but a FBS issue. UA amplified with KO times because in the desert, small TV market and not a blue blood brand Football school. My take is for more (some) UA early KO's is they need to have ...

https://twitter.com/ZackBlatt/status/927689962568290304 Sure already mentioned. But Duh, 2012 is when new ESPN/Fox TV rights deal kicked in. Also when pac-12 Networks launched. So every UA game on TV starting 2012. Fox and ESPN bought rights to roughly 22 games each for primetime. Under this deal, ...

Assume attendance will increase a bit just because of the student fee kicking in. I assume UA will count a full zona zoo in the attendance numbers just like ASu has done with their student fee whether students there or not. ASU relocated parts of their student section. Who knows, maybe UA will split...

RazorsEdgeAZ

Yeah, you won't like my opinion either. P12 Presidents and Larry Scott sold out TV time slots back in 2011. But ESPN/Fox for the majority don't want P12 games earlier time slots (TV markets, eyeballs, time zone). This means the number of available earlier time slots to grant P12 limited (because not...

ESPN game but a nearly midnight eastern kickoff so still no exposure for Tate Late game for sure. Being an ESPN West prime-time game, sure college gameday will showcase Tate in promoting the game. Tate is headed towards an ESPN segment feature at some point. He's young and a "out of nowhere" story ...

Don't think it has to be that complicated. A Team winning, a team losing is always going to include the HC in praise or blame. He's the Boss. He's got to take blame for bad hires or being a bad hire. How his coaches recruit, develop or don't. I myself started bitching about RR's recruiting back in 2...

Keep in mind how rare it has been for UA teams to improve their conference records year to year.

Extension, not the $$$$ issue. It's March 2018 where UA will owe RR $3 million in retention money. UA doesn't need to extend. That's not their pressure point. You fire RR this year or you keep him for awhile because they've essentially paid him once March comes.

After bye week, think UA has good shot getting a win today. Needs it to get any chance at bowl game.
3 game stretch that will save RR's job (possible to nab 2 wins next 3 games) or go 0-3, nail in the coffin

RazorsEdgeAZ

It'll just take one win over the next 3 games to breathe hope back. Win two out of next three and Fire RR narrative could slant other way. The bar is that low. Lose all three and lose to Cal (I'm not sure they're as bad as advertised) and that could be the end of RR. IF UA were to make a move you'd ...

This on RR. His career is litttered with QB's that are marginal to poor passers but are great, fast runners (and get hurt). That's who he targets. Dawkins is not Matt Scott who RR inherited and this isn't the BE or even the B10. Scott was the 1st QB RR had where his team passed more than run. And th...
