Unofficial reports out of Arizona say that Mackovic will be fired on Sunday and (Taa Daaah!) Mike Price will be named the new head coach. http://arizona.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=1522&mid=22896809&sid=&tid=22896447&style=1 Oh. My. God. "It's rollin', baby! It's rollin'!
They better get some Nudie bars in Tuscon pretty quick or they will have one upset head coach... I wonder if they will hire Destiny as a coaches assistant.
If he's trying to starve his players, that ought to be a cause for concern. I smell another player mutiny coming, and if that happens, Mackovic is finished as a Division 1-A football coach. Why he wasn't fired last year I don't know.
Mike Price and Rick Neuheisel were the front runners for the Arizona job. Both have baggage, but in less that one month of the season, Mac makes them both look great.
From what I've read, Mackovic should've been gone a long time ago. If Price does get hired, we'll see if he can do any better than Mackovic.
It's official. John Mackovic has just been fired at Arizona. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=1625726 So, now we will see what route they go for a new coach. Old sleazeball (George O'Leary, Rick Neuheisal, Mike Price??) or hot rising star (Urban Meyer, Darrel Dickey, Pat Hill??)
