Oh come on...... Yates hasn’t even proved himself as a DC, let alone a HC. Atleast Baldwin has been a HC.

I think Joe is coming in as DC if Ken is the guy. Yates would be out

Well yeah Baldwin is my #2, but I am saying more than Kenny

At least Jim Young had the talent to coach the triple option at Army AFTER kicking ass at Arizona and Purdue.

If Arizona goes ahead with this hire after a week of nothing but Sumlin and Baldwin offenses, this will be our first official athletic director failure since Dave Strack.

No other way to spin this if true. Mike Sanford would've been a better choice. But apparently Arizona will no longer be able to recruit offensive skill players even at that level with the most underwhelming hire for football HC since Jim LaRue.

I mean I don't want to see it but I wouldn't hire a coach just for one player, even if it's Tate

btfd16 · Post by **btfd16** » Fri Jan 12, 2018 11:45 am

We might lose the best and most explosive offensive talent ever to come through Arizona because Heeke is an incompetent moron listening to a old timer coach.

This doesn’t get reported this way unless a real offer is on the table. This isn’t some smokescreen to get Sumlin more money.

And if this doesn’t work out? We just got turned down by a service academy coach. We aren’t going up the talent ladder from there.

R.I.P. my fandom.

I get that but don't you think this is how a lot of kids feel? Would be hard to recruit power 5 talent to the triple option and Arizona football.

Yes. It said "I didn't come to Arizona to run the triple option."

Was our offer to him so high that not only could we not afford to send him a plane but we also couldn't even get him a direct flight? I've convinced myself that the small hope I had for us actually landing him is now gone.

Yep. Time to start coaching my kids on Saturdays while Heeke negotiates a cushy retirement package for not doing his job.

So long. Farewell. Auf wiedersehen, goodnight...

UGH! Barf!!! If Ken N. actually is hired, I will be pretty much done with UA football, after being a fan for 40+ years.

I can hear ten thousand more season tickets not being renewed. Keeping Dick Wad would have been better than this.

Navy only had 102 pass attempts last year. Going back to 2010, the most attempts was 172 but they seem to average between 125-150.

Tate had 179 attempts last year but Dawkins had another 114. Yuge difference!

Siempre Verde · Post by **Siempre Verde** » Fri Jan 12, 2018 12:08 pm

Well, if this comes to pass, I guess I don’t have to worry about buying any more season tickets to any UofA sports because letting my Wildcat Club membership lapse probably means I lose enough priority points to forfeit my basketball standing. So be it. This debacle (again, if true) has turned me hard left on Heeke. Sucks that I’m going to putvabout a third of my wardrobe in storage, but that’s how mad I am right now. #gutted

I know I'm heavily in the minority, but I don't mind the triple option idea.

Different systems can win, and the most exciting football is winning football. If Niumatalolo can win, that's the test.

The 3.4 GPA tweet must have been in response to someone questioning his academics.

The other tweet he deleted was honest, if not a good look. I’m sure our WRs are feeling the same exact way.
