Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
Ok I am annoyed and reposting this as much more important topic then who is right and who is wrong about Arizona football. who cares about that sort of stuff, I care about us making a rose bowlNewportcat wrote:I honestly do not think Arizona will ever recruit its home state well. I think for all other U of A sports, we do a great job at it, but for Arizona football it just seems like we never consistently recruit the state well because top talent either
A. Grew up going to ASU games so if they stay in state/local they figure just go to ASU
B. Want to leave the state to play for a big program
Seems like every couple years we will get a good instate player but on the whole always been tough. As Rich Rod has said, its tough to get in-state guys to visit us. I have always thought the way to build the instate pipeline is take flyers on the tweeners from the big time schools like Hamilton, Chandler, Saguaro etc. Like Julian Carter. 3 star WR who is 6'2 who is going to Boise State. Why not offer him. Or HAMILCAR RASHED who is going to Oregon State. Now both guys are tweeners but I think in state guys are less likely to get home sick or leave and at least you start building up a pipeline. We have done it a couple times with guys like Nate Phillips but seems like there is always guys we never offer who turn into good players like Blake Martinez or Aaron Tevis or Jake Roh. I could be way off base but if we bring in those types, we get to know the head coaches at those high schools, build good will, and also when the top guys start looking they have friends on our team etc. Just a thought and welcome any comments from guys who know phoenix high school football better then me

Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
Chief When did Casteel every adjust of adapt in certain games in the four years we all have watch are team perform. That bend don't break BS didn't do a god damn thing.chiefzona wrote:Sure thing DC. Casteel was unreal. Greatest DC that Arizona has ever seen. It's a shame that he was bamboozeled at Arizona. Shame on Rich Rod for not seeing his greatness and screaming at him in practices to bring the corners up on the receivers. It's a shame the rest of the football world and fans didn't recognize his adjustments that came during halftime and making the offense have to scamper to score. His no in game adjustments were complete genius. I'm sure he'll fit at a Penn State, Alabama or maybe even Wisconsin because of his defensive prowess. All hail Coach Casteel! I hope that when the next HC comes here that he brings Casteel back so we can all be blessed to watch his genius again.

I think Chief is angry because RR doesn't acknowledge him as the true expert and confer with him on all of his decisions. After all, Chief played high school football and was a passionate leader.

As I have read he was asked to leave the scout boards so he has been identifies as a locker room cancer there and he is a program cancer.
It's to bad because he has some knowledge but since he is not acknowledged to the levels he desires he has to take the critical, extreme position to get heard.

I was not asked to leave the Scout board. I left on my own. I was however kicked of another board that had nothing to do with Arizona football.
I'm acknowledged just fine thanks. There is no extreme position when on a message board expressing opinions unless you are in Nazi Germany with a gun to your head. Don't forget that this is a message board, not a place where everyone has to agree.

Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
Let's shift gears away from Chief for a moment....
I looked up the posting, and noticed that the job is contingent on passing a fingerprint background check. The U is very serious about background checks, especially after the whole track coach debacle. Any employee has to pass a background check before hiring is final, I've seen perfect hires blown up by a background and DMV check.
A smart candidate would have a fingerprint background check run by a qualified source to hand over at the interview.

As long as DC still floats onto this board every now and then, I will be here. The day he flies, I will too. Now, I've heard that they'll be some developments and announced at the team meeting. Hold onto your Wilbur cowboy hats and wave those Pom poms girls.
Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
Spot on as usual chi. Thing is I don't think RR expected Casteel to go and I say that because he had just gotten a LB commit. You don't do that if you plan on leaving less than a week later. Case in point was the kid decommitted shortly after it was announced that Casteel was leaving. No way he accepts a committ from the kid if he knew he was leaving less than a week later. Word on the street is RR wanted Kirlav to retire and Kirlav didn't want to do that so RR was left with no choice but to say it's time. Casteel says if Kirlav goes, I'm going and at the point RR had no choice but to say "see ya".Chicat wrote:What I don't understand is how you jumped to the conclusion that RR can't make tough decisions.

I'm sure RR felt that adding Addae and another dynamic recruiter to the defensive side of the ball would help Casteel immensely. RR has a ton of respect for Casteel and like most people not named Chief, knows that the guy can coach.
Once Casteel leaves it then becomes a little sticky as most DC's that you hire will want to bring at least one position coach that they're familiar with along with them. Which is also another reason why Casteel might've left because all of "his guys" were gone after Kirlav left and maybe he didn't want to start over with guys he didn't know? So RR is either looking strictly to hire a DC and let him hire a DL coach or RR is going to hire both positions. It's not a mess as Chief describes, it's in fact being done very close to the vest. RR has interviewed guys and will continue to do so while he's in San Antonio and not even those closest to RR have a clue as to who the next DC will be.
It's pretty obvious or it should be to those who follow RR in that he likes to surround himself with coaches that he knows and trusts. The OL coach Jim Mac was the OL coach and OC for Tedford (Who RR has said publicly is his closest friend in the coaching ranks) so that was a no brainer. He promotes Caponi from within, Addae from within, word is that he wants to promote Amey to DL coach which would also be from within. Point being, where is this a mess? RR knows exactly what he's doing and he's doing it as he sees fit. He didn't want Casteel to leave and wanted to promote Amey to DL coach but it didn't workout because Casteel would've been the one who had to adjust. Lockwood was the guy who signaled the plays in and I'm sure Casteel spoke directly to Kirlav up in the press box as to what he saw on the field. All of that was gone and Casteel was going to be the one who had to adjust - he chose not to do that. The interesting part is going to be whether RR's DC gets to bring a DL coach with him or is RR making that hire?
Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
Chief, stop listening to the disgruntled players parents as they don't know shit. RR isn't even in town so how are they going to have a meeting? He's in San Antonio and the team meeting that you're talking about isn't until the 14th. Even then, I doubt RR tells them who the DC is.chiefzona wrote:As long as DC still floats onto this board every now and then, I will be here. The day he flies, I will too. Now, I've heard that they'll be some developments and announced at the team meeting. Hold onto your Wilbur cowboy hats and wave those Pom poms girls.

Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
Chief, why do you now get off on annoying people on these boards? You used to be a somewhat normal contributor prior to your Kahlil McKenzie fail. After people discovered that you do not know as much as you think you know, you seemed to go off the deep end. I really cannot comprehend the need to be such an egotistical prick that compels you to turn every thread into a discussion about you. If you feel the need to be so masturbatory, go do it the old fashioned way and leave the rest of us alone.

DC- just sit back and watch. Wait for the team meeting. I never said anything about the DC. I'm so glad you float down here though. I miss our bromance.

I do like Chief's posts, and especially his knowledge of conditioning, which no one here has.
Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
How exactly is this a mess? RR fired two of his friends to find a new guy and it's been what maybe a week? Technically the job was posted last Wednesday so RR will have to wait till next Wednesday to officially "hire" his guy, but there's ways around that and It'll probably leak. He is moving fast and he has two more days at the coaching convention to interview or talk to guys. This is far from a mess. Maybe if we don't have a guy announced by next Wednesday, but I bet he gets done here real soon.
Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
Again, what team meeting? Or are you confusing that with the presser that you said was suppose to happen today?

DC- my Tweet about the presser was a question being asked, not a statement. Go back and look. Your son is the big info guy for the PAC 12 network. Ask him. Maybe he knows something. Yeah, I know nothing at all. At the team meeting later this week it'll probably be just a hey guys.....welcome back, we are gonna push you hard this season....need you to work out all year like Scooby did.

Go away.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

That's a solid post #12 for you. I hope we get to see #13 much sooner than later. Me a normal contributor? No way. What board was I a normal contributor? I don't get paid for that trash like some. Haha. I don't turn every thread into a discussion about me....people bad mouth and question, so I respond. If anything it is other posters that make it about me. Just like your above post...you're making it about me. After Khalil I went off the deep end? I was never in the shallow end. Haha. Leave you alone? You've posted 12 times on this board. Are you a sock or just like reading? If I was once a normal contributor, what does that make you? No contributions but a 12 post trying to slam someone for his opinion? Interesting. Take it easy buddy and start contributing more and I'll follow your lead.

Re: Who would be Arizona Next DC.
First off I don't appreciate you bringing my son into a conversation, especially one that has nothing to do with him. Stop being a jackass and reaching for shit. I can talk to any number of media guys or folks at McKale who know whether a meeting or presser has been called and what it's about. It really isn't that big of a deal. Speaking of big deals - Gershon gave me the same treatment Scheer gave you - difference is I didn't think it was something I needed to tell the world about. Mainly because I didn't think anybody would care.chiefzona wrote:DC- my Tweet about the presser was a question being asked, not a statement. Go back and look.

The meeting is going to be about the coaching changes and why they were made. On the 14th because everybody will be back on campus. I'm sure some will be unhappy as quite a few guys understandably liked and respected both coaches. Some might be happy (Cobb, Ware, and Griffin certainly come to mind) as they get a new lease on life. Whether they decide to take advantage of it is up to them. This isn't a democracy and RR has been like that from the get go. You know how many players - when they met with RR for the first time asked that he keep the strength and conditioning guys that Stoops had brought in? Almost every guy and you know what RR said to each and every guy? "You're going to love the guys I have coming in to run our strength and conditioning program."
