Latest on Arizona from TSN... "Problems continue to pop up for Arizona in what could be coach John Mackovic's last season. Star RB Clarence Farmer has said he won't talk to Mackovic this season unless he has to. Farmer already has had a he said/he said public spat with Mackovic about his work ethic. Potential starter DE Brad Brittain has been kicked off the team for undisclosed reasons, and WR Andrae Thurman, the team's only deep threat, might not be academically eligible."
Farmer does not like Mac. They were in the Sunday paper today. the wheels are falling off. LSU needs to take care of business in AZ
Can you say "program in turmoil"? I thought Arizona should have gotten rid of Mackovic last year. It was clear then (and ever more so now) that he has completely lost control of this team. And when a coach loses his authority, he can no longer do his job. We saw that back in the late 90s with DiNardo. Arizona should cut their losses now and fire him. Regardless, I can already tell you the secret to beating Arizona. Get all over them early. Jump out to a 17-0 or 21-0 lead. A team without leadership will lay down if you jump on them early.
Of course the board is lame. AZ hasn't been any good at football for years but they should have more on basketball since they have been a contender for years and actually won a NC a few years ago. The LSU - AZ game in the PMAC last year at a time when AZ was rated #1 was the best basketball game I saw all year. I always was a Luke Walton fan. I love that Greatful Dead tatoo he has of 4 dancing skeletons twirling basketballs in honor of the Greatful Dead and the 4 basketball playing Walton brothers. Adam Walton was at LSU but he didn't get to play much. Luke was drafted by the Lakers. I hope he does well in LA.
I'd like to see Gainus Scott get more playing time at running back this year for Arizona. I watched him run here in LaPorte, and the guy's got some serious wheels. I'd also like to hear how my old Baylor teammate's son is doing at quarterback at LSU. Can someone give me an update on Matt Flynn?
