I would have said, Arizona Finally Makes a Difficult Decision, but never mind.
Pre-Snap Read takes a look at Arizona’s firing of eighth-year football coach Mike Stoops.
“There’s clearly more to it than just wins and losses, even if that’s always – always, always – the ultimate motivator behind a coaching move, particularly one that occurs in October, halfway through a season. When it comes to another quote from Byrnes, you can read between the lines as you will: ‘I think (Kish will) create a culture of calmness, which is probably a good thing for us.’
“Red, redder, reddest: that’s Stoops, or that was Stoops, along the sidelines as Arizona’s head coach.”
The school has to pay Stoops $1.4 million.
