I think ASU hated firing Dennis Erickson but knew they had to as soon as the UofA game ended.

I think this season cost ASU a chance at a 5 year window of divisional dominance and a chance at multiple Rose Bowls in a small amount of time.

I think If Vontaze Burfict had the character within himself or if Dennis Erickson would have used a firmer hand over the last 3 years, there wouldn't be a coaching change occurring.

I think ASU never considered Mike Leach and that was a mistake.

I think no football team in college football could hire a coach that fits better than Mike Leach fits Wazzu.

I think Mike Leach will replace Golden in Miami in 5 years and Wazzu will then complain they got cheated.

I think ASU never said, "Do you want the job," to Kevin Sumlin's agent so they're right when they say the job wasn't offered but that's semantics.

I think they offered the job.

I think Mike Sherman was fired because A&M was afraid of losing Sumlin to ASU.

I think Sumlin didn't know for sure which job he wanted and was given $4 million reasons to choose A&M.

I think The University of Houston never had a chance of keeping him.

I think ASU doesn't take me seriously when I say Hue Jackson should be their next target.

I think ASU was going to hire Sumlin without a search firm.

I think ASU will now hire a search firm.

I think Lisa Love is still ultimately making the decision but there are now other people in the room, unlike the Erickson hire.

I think it's a much tougher decision this time for Lisa Love because the last time no one wanted the job and now there's lots of candidates.

I think I don't have as much power as the agents of coaches think I do.

I think this process has shown me just how bad NCAA football needs a commissioner.

I think Jim Leavitt would be an incredible choice for ASU but they are too scared of his South Florida baggage.

I think the new HC should keep Noel Mazzone.

I think Mazzone should be able to pick his O-Line coach or at least have one that will listen to him.

Unless ASU gets Hue Jackson, I think they should go defensive head coach so they can keep Mazzone. A defensive head coach would also help combat the offensive coaches in this league.

I think if ASU hires the wrong guy it will be 10 years before their next Rose Bowl appearance.

    Defensive Minded HC needed
    I whole heartedly agree with you about Mazzone, why would we hire Sumlin who will bring the same offense that Mazzone currently has in place? Why not hire a defensive minded head coach, and keep Mazzone on as offensive coordinator, especially considering the fact that 9 of 10 Pac-12 schools have an offensive head coach running their team! The team that decides to play defense in the Pac-12 will have a leg up on the competition.

    I agree 100% with all of these things. I am actually for Hue Jackson over Sumlin.

    How the ?!?!
    How can Texas A&M afford to fire a coach who has 4 years remaining and then pay another coach 4 million a year. That shows you what kind of money these colleges are making off of football that the players will never see

    Until he is ruled out, no other name should be mentioned. He's the only name out there that is big enough to overcome the mediocrity that is ASU football.

    Sumlin to A&M
    Is this just innuendo or is this a fact that he is going there and ASU is gonna be stuck with the Junior Varsity Coach at Brophy Prep?
