Re: 3 out of the last 5?

RR is not going to get nfl caliber guys for the most part to play under him. We have known this though. So you have to get the hungry guys who want to try and try and at the least get to play a few more years and get a college education. Seems like that was happening then wasnt then was then back to...

Re: Post your unpopular opinions

Football is a sport, but it's mostly just a curious oddity, and vastly overrated in the U.S. With all of football's overly complicated specialization of positions, the bizarre padding and protection, and complete lack of visual poetry let alone actual play action, there's only a single game rule th...

Re: 2017-2018 Arizona Basketball

Ya'll are getting me excited about AB. He's the least heralded member of this recruiting class, but he could end up making the greatest impact on our program if he's a four year player. Again I know nothing and dont want to know much but I would say he is a solid 4 year backup and can start if need...

Re: 2017-2018 Arizona Basketball

I dont follow recruiting that much, just seems weird to invest time into kids who may not come to your school.
