Yeah I don't doubt RichRod's intensity and I know he understands the importance of the ASU game to the fan base. Just because the guy can tell a joke doesn't mean he doesn't care. Talking about beating ASU is irrelevant and actually is counter-productive. Talking about beating them just elevates the...

The "who gives us the best chance to win now" question has to be the only question that matters in figuring out the starter. RR can't sacrifice wins now for (potential) future wins later. If there's two or more guys who are pretty much equal, then yeah, Anu should be the guy as that will help us the...

Or, just wait for the torrential rainfall that is hitting my house presently. That is one of the big differences between PHX and Tucson, though. During the day, 5 degrees hotter. At night, 10-15 degrees hotter. Sucks - absolute worst part of living here IMHO. I can deal with 110 in the day but 90+ w...

I say this without hyperbole - that is the most glorious picture in the history of the universe bar none.

Wow, is this gonna blow up the 2015 recruiting class ? :( I would like to think that the 2015 LA recruits are way more about Magee and virtually nothing to do w/ Patterson - at least, that's the way I've read it. But perhaps that's just me comforting myself. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_r8pvZUPNybc/S_...

azthrillhouse

Well then. That was fun while it lasted.

azthrillhouse

Wasn't sure where to put this, but....hmm.

azthrillhouse

The neighbors on both sides of me as well as across the street were all born and raised in Phoenix. One of my neighbors recently moved back from California and bought a house that is a 30 second walk from the house she grew up in. (Neighbor across the street flies an ASU flag, I don't talk to him.)

azthrillhouse

happy for CITH for sure. but there's a reason why no one I grew up with or went to college with has stayed in phoenix very long except for the mormons who have had their families there for 3+ generations. Well there's no arguing with that bulletproof logic. (Me and my two best friends from high sch...

azthrillhouse

Hmm. Replied to Merkin's post but seems to have disappeared into the aether. alieberman said it - there's plenty in PHX for you regardless of what your particular "thing" might be, though you might have to look for it. It is fair to say that on a per-capita basis, PHX has fewer "interesting" neighbo...

SBNation released their very detailed preview of Arizona's 2014 football guide: "Speed Kills and the Wildcats have it: Fun and Dangerous. http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2014/7/22/5917957/arizona-wildcats-football-2014-preview-schedule-roster Not a lot to disagree with there (other than Te...

azthrillhouse

Wow that is one brutal schedule. Also, this game scares me.... just a little. Where it lands in the schedule scares me. It's plausible that we could come into that game with as few as two losses. Week before would hopefully be a nice win over UW at home, so we could be coming in to that game feelin...

azthrillhouse

Interesting choice....I'm beyond done with the "anything"-out concept - though, if this is a day game, it will be doing the fans a favor.....

azthrillhouse

Thanks for your service, Boat. Great post - I have been a Cat fan since '86 and you capture a lot of what it means to follow Arizona football. If we are the scrappy underdogs but can win a couple of conference championships being that way (i.e. just getting over that final hump that the 93 and 99 te...

azthrillhouse

Don't have any facts to back it up (Winger where are you?), but it seemed last year the Cats blitzed a lot more from the 3-3-5 than they did the year before. Hopefully even more so this year. I think it was just a matter of having the personnel to make the rush possible without getting burned over ...

azthrillhouse

SB Nation with a new article on our QB situation. The article was prompted by NFL.com rating us as the 86th best QB situation in D1 and the worst in the PAC 12. Here is where they rated the rest of the conference nationally: 2. Oregon Ducks 6. UCLA Bruins 10. Arizona State Sun Devils 11. Oregon Sta...

AZ Daily Star online is going behind a paywall . I devour local sports coverage and I will be reluctant to pay for info I can get from "free" sources.

OK, which one of you is Dudek?

azthrillhouse

Pretty much the same for me, I don't follow the athletes. Recruiting is a strange ride. Re: relative Dudek silence, Chief pointed out something on TOS that I had forgotten - there was that graphic that Dudek tweeted that compared the two coaching staffs that he had to backtrack on slightly - that m...

Went back thru Matty D's twitter and for a while there the #BucketGang tweets were frequent, he really backed of those the past couple of weeks. I find it strange that someone with his social media presence hasn't mentioned anything about this in a while. I'm probably reading too much into this. In...

azthrillhouse

So how are we feeling? Predictions? I'm ready to shock the recruiting world! Let's put AZ on the map KM!! Listening to the kid talk in interviews....he just seems like a west coast kid, will fit much better at UofA and will be joining a program on the upswing. He clearly has connected with the coac...

The cheesiness is part of the charm in my opinion. Make the videos Academy Award quality and the question is going to become, is this a football program or a film program? Yup this. I thought this one was better than most of the recent ones - it's very cheesy, but coherently cheesy. Some of the oth...

People that like strip clubs a lot.

(Actually my personal experience is that that positive stereotype is VASTLY overrated, but still makes for a good joke)

azthrillhouse

I don't think they are making a big enough deal about ASU's defense losing a lot of talent, especially in an offense happy PAC. I agree, but given that they won more by outscoring people last year and have most of the key offensive weapons back, I could see where the pundits could look past their d...

ESPN pac12 blog posts some odds today To win the PAC 12 championship Oregon 6/5, UCLA 4/1, Stanford 5/1, USC 5/1, Arizona State 6/1, Washington 14/1, Arizona 25/1, Washington State 25/1, Oregon State 33/1, Utah 66/1, California 100/1 and Colorado 100/1.

azthrillhouse

UF definitely feels like a likely candidate but I don't think your scenario would cut it. If they were going to take anyone from the "sissy" Pac-12 they would be looking at whoever had won the conference championship (Mora, Shaw, Helfritch....I cannot bring myself to type the other name that could ...

azthrillhouse

yeah i wouldn't say he's in it for the long haul, but unless something amazing happens, i think he's here for another 3-4 years. needs that time to rebuild his image. he might stay at arizona until he retires, but i see him being here for that 3-4 more years, making us a consistent 9-4/10-3 type te...

Programs that I think may be of interest to Rich Rod (Florida, Tennessee, LSU) would NEVER hire him. Especially Tennessee, which had its chance this season. Arizona and Rich Rod are in it for the long haul. Made this argument before, but all you had to do is look at the reaction of the Louisville f...

azthrillhouse

I am always amazed how little Stoops and RR put into ST, especially when ST probably ended Stoops' UA career a year early. Yet how many QBs and RBs are on scholarship? It's not like RR platoons QBs. Did anyone complete a pass last year besides Denker, even in blowouts? I also wonder about this, as ...

azthrillhouse

Would have preferred that he stayed, but barring a rash of injuries, I have a hard time thinking he'll be missed.

azthrillhouse

No, just one is fine, but the problem is some fans are totally ok with having SDSU being the highest strata we play OOC. Gotcha. I was gonna say, it's not realistic to think we can book 2 games a year better than SDSU, and it's debatable as to whether it would be wise even if it was realistic. I ag...

azthrillhouse

It's fine if that's our mid-tier game - it's in a recruiting base, good trip for the fans, etc. The problem arises when that becomes our premier OOC game, which it's very likely to be. It kills me some fans are ok with this. EGB, are you saying that you think we should have 2 OOC games a year with ...

I was in the "wait and see" camp (it's a dead time of year, not much going on, Dorsey "news" excepted) until I checked in today and saw 4Life's assault on the reverted boards......not going back. (Considering Scout premium, however.....)
