• So much has happened lately, and unfortunately not all has been good. Gronk is sick… and we are not talking the good kind.
• In better news Crier is back! I love 83 yard punts to the one yard line!
• The annual Herbies have been awarded by Kirk Herbstreit of ESPN and it looks a lot like the preseason before Tui’s sophomore year. If Herbstreit keeps up the Arizona love, he may get a Raurie award at the end of the season. (See best receivers, tight ends, old school QB’S, going bowling, movin’ on up, Pac-10 sleeper, and coaches who will exceed expectations)
• Herbstreit is not the only one making Arizona the fashionable pick though. Todd McShay of ESPN Insider has Arizona as his Pac-10 sleeper, (discusses Stoops on hot seat, introduction of Dykes last year, returning offense, and winnable schedule). Also check out #24 on the oddsmakers preseason poll.
• Ryan Finley of the Daily Star say this could be one of the coolest things you ever put your mouse on…we agree.
• Arizona Basketball picked up a commitment for a point guard for next year, but missed out on a guard for the year after.
• Also be sure to wear red on Friday.
