https://twitter.com/Scott_Terrell/status/594664515930755073 Something important that we can take from the draft and what this tweet implies is that there was a talent gap between UA and the other Pac12 teams. The Pac12 as a whole was tied with the ACC for the conference with the most 1st round draf...

t. Did the definition of the word 'commit' change when I wasn't looking? If you're not sure where you want to go, then don't commit. No kidding. I'm still pissed about punkass Tabor. I thought the general thinking with Tabor was that he actually did wanna come here to play with his buddy Haden but ...

I feel like it was last season or maybe the season before that Oregon St. had a bye the very first week. Which in my mind would be even worse.

Well, here is at least one question answered. From Brad Allis at Wildcat Sports Report . Gilbert granted extra year Brad Allis In what was seen as a mere formality, Arizona defensive end Reggie Gilbert has been granted a fifth year of eligibility by the NCAA. The Wildcats were so confident that Gil...

According to Rivals, Matt Hegarty (Center from ND) was on campus. Looking to transfer could play immediately.

Good on Tevis. He has a lifetime to go into business. It'll always be there. Football, on the other hand, won't be waiting when he turns 35.

Looks like we're offering some big-time guys.

dmjcat, great post and agree completely. Challenge is there are plenty of homer fans who would tell you we had a good to great class and don't ever look at rankings. What really surprises me is how two years in a row, Rich Rod has stated he wants to change how they recruit by not having so many com...

TuiTouchdown

Are there any examples of a B1G or P12 school making it to the Rose Bowl since online recruiting services tracking that have same, similar or lower ranking or avg star rating as Arizona over 2-3 consecutive years? Any? Not points, which rankings use which imo is not best way to rank. It's based on ...

TuiTouchdown

Does anyone else who is reasonable with regards to the reality of Arizona football recruiting feel like the guys who stand by Rich Rod no matter what and don't care about rankings simply yell SCOOBY at their top of their lungs as their only argument to why they are right. Scooby is the exception no...

Yeah there's 3* Kendal Franklin who's committed. Hulk would be a great get at this point.

Wanted to share this to add to the discussion of recruits. Of course there's a higher correlation of 4-5 star getting drafted, but I saw an article that listen how the starters from each of the Super Bowl teams were rated when they were recruits coming out of high school. http://www.sbnation.com/col...

Heard Orlando Bradford got an offer today from Mich and told them he was a solid commit to UA.

5 dlinemen in this class if you include Shariff Williams, that is a lot considering Arizona returns all but one on the Dline next year and only uses a three-man front. Yep, I like those numbers.

The kid I'm most excited about it Shun Brown. We need a shut-down corner.

He's gonna visit Oklahoma and TTU. I don't really find TTU as a threat, but Oklahoma could make things interesting. I still think we're leading, but that's just my gut at the moment. Matty D and Co are turning it up on McGinnis and they want him bad. Clarke will visit Southern Miss, but if he doesn...

Not sure if this has been posted anywhere, but it seems like Mike Stoops has been demoted to co-defensive coordinator after the promotion of Jerry Montgomery on the OU staff.

Not just Anu, but an Anu with a year of experience. I think he wins.

Any update on how serious this was?
Meniscus.

A quick search for torn meniscus told me that he could be out 4-weeks. Is that accurate? I'm sure he'll be ready to go by the time he's in Tucson.

This won't be another Sharif, will it?

I would think Utah recruits would also be in play with their coaching shake-up. They lost their DC, DL coach, and OC.

It looks like DB commit Shun Brown had a interception in last night's Semper Fi Bowl and also had some good practices leading up to it.

We're all cheering for him to dominate though, right? Let's see how he is, either way.

TuiTouchdown

But you can't blame the OL for the 8 sacks, and the pick 6. Those were pretty much all on Anu when he panicked in the pocket. Great defensive adjustment by BSU forcing Solomon to sit back there and actually have to think instead of react. Agree that he could have done better. A freshman will play l...

TuiTouchdown

I felt like this needed to be bumped. Too much doom and gloom around here.

TuiTouchdown

This is a ridiculous thread. No Solomon didn't have a good game, but we still were about 3 yards away from tying this thing up. He led us to our best season in more than a decade, as a Freshman, in a year when we had to replace our best RB in a generation? Come on guys. Cut the kid some slack. He wi...

Freshmen gonna make freshmen mistakes. This one hurt. But he'll get better.

If I remember correctly he played a fair amount this year. Had a pick, I think. Should be firmly in the rotation next year.

We have a very good young group of linebackers. I like our DB's too. People don't realize including the greyshirts were bringing in 7 DB's.. that's a lot and unless he's a real talent I'd rather shore up our LB's or Dline. Also McCall was a RS Freshman who started for us. Sure he made freshman mist...

That's nutty. Anyone have a read on this? Did we cool on him at all? Or did we just lose out to Wazzu for a linebacker? Which would be nutty given all the success our star linebacker is having.

Any team that kicks the shit out of ASU is alright by me.

And he's only a sophomore... We are witnessing a once-in-a generation player for UA.

TuiTouchdown

Matt from that other site retweets all of the UA recruits/commits and it looks like the staff is hitting the trail hard.

TuiTouchdown

Anyone know what Anu's status is? Was he yanked in the CCG because he was injured or because he wasn't playing well?

And what do you guys think his status will be for the bowl game?

TuiTouchdown

I'm fine with playing NAU every other year or so. But that's where we should draw the line. I don't see the benefit of playing FCS schools from Georgia or some random state.

TuiTouchdown

It feels like we need to start changing our attitude with OOC opponents. I was fine with scheduling 3 duds when we were still battling for 6 wins and a bowl game, but I firmly believe those days are behind us. And that schedule has another 10 win season written all over it. Even without the bye, whi...

TuiTouchdown

How many teams are going to end their season with double digit wins? 15-ish? We had an awesome season. And next year might be phenomenal. Agreed. Only a few of us even dreamed of a 10 win season. And I'd venture to guess they were being very optimistic with their predictions. 10 wins in the hardest...
