1. How much say did Yates have in their selection with RR
2. Wierd you say it's "all Sumlin". He just met them. Quick trigger.
Yates talked and gave input. Sumlin final decision maker

Decision was on Sumlin. 100%

chiefzona

Good point. To recap: Addae, Amey out. Yates retained. Mazzone and McKinney speculated to be joining. Addae and Amey are (were) defensive coaches. So much for Yates' confidence in them. I am curious how much of a say Yates has in the assistants. Maybe 60/40 Sumlin? All Sumlin. 1. How much say did Y...

All Sumlin.

Amey and Addae are gone

To the contrary, my hopes for Sumlin got a boost when Chief said that he was almost gone and when he said Baldwin was likely the guy.

Baldwin was always 2.

chiefzona

Good job with all of this chiefzona. You were right the whole time. I'm still rrod fan but you were spot on during this coaching search. Thanks man. I appreciate it. Hats off to you, Chief. Just one flaw in your commentary: Heeke is not a lightweight in over his head. This could not have been an ea...

I knew Rich Rod's bullshit before anyone else did. I argued with many a fan. They are all quiet now. It's weird. Anyhow......Viva Sumlin.

Sumlin said that he would go after Hamilton and Chandler kids. I'm sure Saguaro is on the list as well.

chiefzona

Guys.....Kenny N wasn’t offered the job. He was a player but Sumlin was number one. Sumlin kind of played back and the names were thrown out to get some donor money. After two phone calls they met twice. Sumlin took the job for peanuts. He really wanted it but he also had some demands.

chiefzona

Mazzone is the new OC but y’all already knew that. Not surprising.

chiefzona

Friekh was the OL starter I was referring to about transferring. He was 50/50 and his RR comments were funny yet unnecessary. So, I thought I’d let that outta the bag for you since he can’t get over the RR firing.

chiefzona

Allis cracks me up. He’s lost so much credibility over this search. Dude needs to just tuck tail and run.

Anyone know why ASU didn’t make a run at Sumlin? Or did they just fall flat....Can’t believe anyone would hire Herm Edwards unless they had no other choices. So incredibly stoked we got Sumlin. Haven’t been this excited about our Football Coach in a long time! They contacted him but he never interv...

chiefzona

McKinney is a home run too. His work with Tilford will be key.

chiefzona

It’s a home run. Big time. Cats are big players now. Time to act like big dogs.

Denker as QB coach?

Yes

Biggest hire in Arizona history. Huge!!!!!!! It elevates the program. I’m buying tickets.

chiefzona

Just wait it out guys. I don’t think it would smart to make an official announcement until after the NFL playoff games. Just an idea. They’d probably want it to resound and reverberate.

SEC country and a couple other minor things. Sit tight.

It was all a donor ploy.

Yes

Sumlin and Baldwin are huge players but I think there are 2 to 3 others now. Heeke showed his hand. Bargain power completely gone. Like the rest of the folks who claim to know what's going on... I'll take a pass on your "insider Info" I’m not an insider. No one is. I’m an outsider looking in.

chiefzona

I brought up Seth Litrell the other day as a joke. Wouldn’t be surprised at this point.

This is all turning into.....Kenny possibly walks.....Heeke panics and scrambles. Ends up calling Baldwin and negotiating to keep Yates. We'll see.

I'm almost 100% positive that Kenny was top choice.

Neuheisel has had success at multiple schools. Kenny has not. Common sense. How would you characterize Neuheisel's job performance at UCLA?

I would rather have Neuheisel than Kenny N and for me, that is saying a hell of a lot.

Gundy isn’t leaving the Pokes and coming to Arizona. He was just asking.

I would take Lance Anderson over Kenny N

Yurcich is a stud.

WTF is going on?! FFS just hire Beau, retain Yates and be done with this shit show!!! Setiously, WTF is Heeke thinking?!!! I've talked to many who think Beau is easily Harsin's equal at Boise St...
