I'm officially over Rich Rod. I see why Michigan canned him. When does AZ? 2014? 2015?
We've seen this song and dance before...new coach comes and inherits talent he had nothing to do with, posts a surprising record and gets fans excited after Year 1. Gradually gets exposed after that.
The knock on Rich Rod was that he ignores the defensive side of the ball. Yep. As an in-game coach, he's completely inflexible (you don't really need to go no-huddle, hurry up ahead by 14 points with 6 minutes left in the game) and sometimes downright stupid (let's not use the first three cupcake non-con games to flush out the passing game with a new QB...save that for UW and USC).
Hoping he can steer us to wins over Cal, Colorado, Washington State and one other team so they can go to some lame bowl game. Aim for the stars.
