RauRaur’s Required Reading (8/27)
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 [...]

RauRaur’s Required Reading (8/18)
It has been quite the exciting weekend for the Wildcats, as optimism is now reaching epic proportions. Even ESPN is seeing us start 6-0!
The past few days in Fort Huachuca are partially the reason for this increased optimism. For example, Gronk has been unstoppable.
Tui also seems a force to be reckoned with. In Saturday’s scrimmage, [...]

More Fantasy (YA!)
We’ve already discussed how former Wildcats are projected to perform in the cutthroat business that is fantasy football. But how about in fantasy sports’ Johnny-come-lately competition, collegiate fantasy football? With the numbers Arizona’s offense (fingers crossed) figures to produce, you could possibly manage players you love AND dominate your league. It’s like being a [...]

Fantasy Cats
With the NFL kicking off their seemingly-endless preseason last night (did that catch anyone else off guard?), we decided it’s time to do a Wildcat-centric fantasy football preview. (This might be embarrassing…)
All projections come from Yahoo! Sports and should provide a “close enough” analysis for the purposes of this discussion.
First, the good news:
Nick Folk is [...]

RauRaur’s Required Reading (8/06)
ESPN.com posted their conference Power Rankings for the upcoming football season. The ‘Cats were picked 5th best team in the Pac.
Our week one opponent, Idaho, holds the #1 spot in the Bottom Ten. Be nice, we were on that list not too long ago.
Pac-10 coaches were also ranked by ESPN.com, Stoops did not fare well [...]

Matching Up
Arizona was ranked 7th in the Pac-10 by the media, just ridiculous. Especially when you look at where our individual players match up against others in the Pac-10. Ted Miller of ESPN.com has been compiling rankings of positional players in the conference and Arizona is up there in each category.
Quarterbacks - #2 Willie Tuitama (Though, [...]

Pac-10 Media Day
Today is Pac-10 Media Day (we were not invited) and Coach Stoops and Willie Tuitama will be addressing the press. Things that will be probably be on tap for the two of them are, how much pressure is there to win this season, how hard will it be for the defense after losing so [...]

Sorry
So things have been pretty quiet around here to say the least. We want to apologize, and now it is time to get back to business. In basketball, Chase is testing the waters, and has until June 16 to return to McKale (PLEASE!). Lute is out recruiting at AAU Tournaments, getting people for [...]

NFL ‘Cats Shine (Relatively Speaking)
Pictured above is Dennis Northcutt. You may remember him from such teams as the 1998 Holiday Bowl winning Arizona Wildcats (you know, back when we actually went to bowl games). More recently, he caught a 55 yard touchdown in Jacksonville’s 29-22 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. And he wasn’t alone, Brandon Manumaleuna’s first [...]
