THE greatest steal in Football is Arizona hiring Rich
Rodriguez for Head football coach before the other fifteen schools even fired their
coaches.
PAC 12 schools that
fired coaches are WSU; UCLA; ASU; and Arizona. Outside of the PAC 12 were Penn
State; Ole Miss; Illinois; Kansas; Memphis; Akron; UAB; Ohio State and a few
others.
Arizona got a deal! Rich is being paid over a five year
contract what some colleges coaches make in one year.
A sweetener is the PAC12's TV deal that will bring Arizona
$20,000,000 in new revenue each year. Arizona went big when they contracted to
build a new hangout for the coaches and players in the North end zone to the
tune of $72,000,000.
Arizona is going for broke and why not? Oregon and USC have
literally unlimited funds to spoil their coaches and players. (Remember that
scandalous pimp-job at Oregon where special friends were provided with young
female escorts?-----Hummm?) Thanks to Nike, they are rolling in money.
Prediction: Arizona will name their stadium for a $$$ corporation by 2013.
