    The best Arizona coach since Larry Smith

    Some peeps may not know who that is. Duckduckgo is your amigo.

    I miss Dick Tomey and Bruce Snyder.

    Im trying to understand why he has a rep as a good recruiter. Had one good class, last two haven’t been impressive (ranked in the 50s). What am I missing?

    All I know is there's a lot of context behind recruiting to Arizona after what Sumlin left. And that first class was some great proof of concept and combined with their success of this past season that makes people think he's solid. I dunno. Yeah you would think the 2024 class would be better. He was very in on lots of studs, but lost out in the end. Remember it's Arizona. Coach V, who coaches in Arizona as far as I'm aware, had some interesting thoughts in the Spaces starting at ~55:40. Hard to tell how much doog was involved but I like it.

    If someone is going to poach him from UW, that means he's winning at UW

    You're spot on. The reason UA had a good class in whatever year is because UW, USC and UO all had head coaching vacancies. TMac was committed to Oregon (yeah he bounced well before Crystalballs did, don't fuck with my narrative).

    It doesn't mean Fisch can't recruit, but it's some head in the sand shit to hang one's hat on that cycle.

    And obviously recruiting to Washton is different than recruiting to Arizona.

    Unless you're KDB.

    Dannen just paid this dude 8 million and he is 17-22 as a HC. Dannen may end in a mental institution after these last 10 days. The guy got abused.

    Arizona, where they don’t give a shit about football. They haven’t won a conference title in 30 years. Historically, that’s the worst job in the Pac12
    All this part is good

    New AD couldn't pry Leopold from Kansas, so we got his #2 choice in Fish.
    I'm ok with this...was probably the best HC UW could actually get in this cycle.
    Leopold will get a better/bigger offer next year with his track record - Ohio State etc.

    I listened to an interview with Fisch. He's a smart, driven guy. He's way smarter than DeBoer in an East Coast, Jewish, chain-smoker voice, had all of his teeth replaced, kind of way.

    He's in deep with multiple NFL GOATS and will probably be there in 2-3 years if things go well at UW.

    I can't wait to hate him.

    I already hate him and until we know all the players that he is bringing with him. Then I will know if I should hate him more or less but hate him I shall.

    Everything I've read is that Fisch was #1 from the get go.
