Drive perception down? RR does that him to himself. RR motivates me to not support his program. I am tired of it already.
I think this is what you meant. Most of us aren't so mad at RR that we don't support Arizona football.

There may come a day when we have to part ways with RR, but I pity the fan who has checked out already. We've had no scandal or big time misconduct. We're in a bowl. I get wanting to be better than that, but I don't get acting like a spoiled child in demanding more.

Chief. Not trying to mean this as disrespect, but it honestly seems like there is a sense of personal vendetta against RR because of your change in tone. If I remember from the last board, you were excited about RR and connected to the program, but at some point it changed, even when we had some success the Fiesta Bowl year. If he is fired next year, will you reveal what happened? I am honestly curious.

I was ok with his hire until I watched Casteel's defense and couldn't believe that he was getting paid to be a DC. I actually wasn't connected to the program until later and that's when I heard all of the crap going on behind the scenes. From special team's decisions to all the recruiting fiascos told by HS coaches who I knew/know. I have to keep quiet about a lot of stuff because yall would think I was sabotaging the program. One day I might just write a book. Who knows.

Truth is never sabotage. If you have actual knowledge of wrong doing in the program you have a responsibility to speak out. Take it to the AD and if they don't want to listen use your platform as the supplier of content for local pundits to get the information to the public.

We are already involved in an FBI investigation, I can guarantee if you have hard, accurate information people want to listen.

On the other hand, if all you have is rumor, speculation, and dissatisfaction with the head coach then it sounds like perfect fodder for your twitter account. Good luck with it.

If it is wrong, speak up. If it is just a difference of opinion or style don't make it sound like you have some big secret knowledge that pundits are lurking around here to steal.

But the twitter idea sounds great. I wish you luck. You will have to work hard to get kicked off twitter.

It's a large part of my life and always has been. I was raised by a football coach and mentored by high profile coaches and football people. I love attention to detail and hate mediocrity. RR has failed in many things in which I find important in a coach. He hasn't taken the job seriously and in my opinion has taken a salary in which he doesn't earn. That's the travesty here in my eyes. I don't trust him nor respect him. There you have it. If I don't see or hear from any of you before Christmas, let me just say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to each and every one of you. Even to you, Cordy. Peace.
Wait, people steal your information on this forum, but dont/arent going to do the same on Twitter? That entire excuse just doesnt make any sense. But, whatever.

Such a load of bullsh*t. He had never given any info that wasn't known before it hit this board.

Such a cancer. Sour grapes and all. I am fine with RR being canned and the criticism of his recruiting, coaching and anything program related but the more this blow hard talks in trying to undermine the program (and he does all the time in many media formats) the more I will support RR and call his BS out.

Misery loves company and his band of HS coaches who thought they had a kid that should have been recruited but didn't and blame RR have their mouthpiece in Chief. I don't trust Chief nor respect him, especially for the way he goes about his cancerous ways

I'm with you azcat. I think Chief is so full of it his eyes are brown and the only thing he's passionate about is himself. I have thought all along that his dislike for RR is purely personal. I figure RR must have snubbed him or some of his recruits and he got all butt hurt over it. I simply use him for entertainment. I think he's funny and he makes me laugh. Yea and people are coming here and monitoring him and stealing his stuff. LOL

I don't really see the discordance there, but then again, I assume other people understand nuance. My mistake in your case.

I’m tired of hearing about the bright future on D cause of these freshman. Guess what, we play 5 freshman cause we are devoid of talent. And they play every play cause we’re devoid of depth. So they should be able to put up stats that look great compared to freshman elsewhere in actual rotations. That big positive is because of a crater sized hole on defense.

All time low season ticket sales next season. And I understand why.

I don’t think RR is a good head coach. Might be a great OC, but his in game management is one of the worse. As I said in the game thread, I doubt players listen to him at all during the game. Let alone the constant brain farts in tight games. Timeout on the 4th down? Turned out to be a mistake.

Ranked 8th out of 12 in the Conference (and 40th nationally) currently, and highly unlikely to finish better than 9th when all is said and done.

Just because your kids score in the 25th percentile on their standardized tests does not make that achievement "good".
