Just heard from multiple sources in the building.
Duane Akina has been offered a job by Brent Brennan and is expected to accept.
A massive pickup for Brennan as Akina recently departed the Wildcats for Texas but looks to be coming back to Tucson
What we’re not going to do is paint a narrative that Washington fans and people are rubbing it in ‘Zona fans faces.
Haven’t seen anything from Washington fans/media of that sort
A couple players have reached out following Brent Brennan’s introduction and the common theme has been that they are impressed and like what he had to say to them as a team.
The early reviews are positive out of Tucson
BREAKING: Noah Fifita and Tetairoa McMillian, ARE staying at Arizona.
There was a lot of rumors after the departure of Jedd Fisch that the duo that lit up the Pac-12 would take their talents elsewhere. The Juice County boys instead send a strong message that they’re ready to…
The official list of Arizona coaches leaving for Washington so far:
Brennan Carroll (OC/OL)
Scottie Graham (RB)
Jimmy Dougherty (QB/Passing Game)
Matt Doherty (Director of Player personnel)
Jordan Paopao (TE/ST)
Tyler Owens (Strength and Conditioning)
The lone offensive coach…
BREAKING: San Jose State head coach Brent Brennan is expected to accept the offer to become the next head coach at the University of Arizona.
Brennan’s ties to the university go back to his time near the beginning of his career in which he served as a GA under the legendary Dick…
Noah Fifita & Tetairoa McMillan’s podcast “Island Time in the desert” just dropped a new episode on the gamenetwork app and they just dropped a preview of the episode on IG.
Here’s a tidbit from that preview. Make sure y’all go download the app and hear what Fifita and TMac have…
Alright Washington Fans, here’s the type of player you’re getting with Adam Mohammed.
Adam finished his high school career with 113 touchdowns which was the 5A conference record, just one shy of Bijan Robinson’s Arizona state record.
His career stats: 5,180 rushing yards, eight…
Can confirm that Jedd Fisch and his staff at Washington have their eyes set on multiple early enrollees from Arizona’s 2024 class and have prioritized specific ones they’d want to transfer to Washington.
Their main target is at a big position of need for the Huskies
This has been a wild 48 hours to say the least. I’ve gained a lot of new eyes on my tweets and my work. I’m just a newly 21 year old person just trying to make it in this industry. I’m grateful for the connections I’ve made and for those who’ve allowed me to report on the…
So DeBoer and Grubb left UDub for Bama after Pete Carroll left the Seahawks. DeBoer and Grubb’s replacements at Washington were Jedd Fisch and Brennan Carroll, Pete’s son. Grubb then leaves Bama for the Seahawks OC job to work under Carroll’s replacement who was a former DC for…
From everything I’ve heard from sources in the building.
If Brennan is able to bring back one of Nansen/Cummings
The majority of the roster including Fifita, TMac, and Manu have committed privately to stay at Arizona
The AZ to Washington pipeline has grown today with Basha QB Demond Williams committing to the Huskies and Apollo ATH Adam Mohammed committing as well.
Centennial ATH Noah Carter still has a visit planned with the Huskies soon.
Safe to say that Montlake Motion still going strong…
Brent Brennan has me ready to run through a wall for him and I’m certain a lot of the people watching this press conference are feeling the same way.
You can tell how genuine he is and how much he cares about nailing this opportunity to lead a major program
This will be my only tweet on the subject
So let’s set this straight and let me be clear. You are correct I did buy one this weekend.
Because I was told to do so and wanted to see something. Have I been on the board since then yes, in the background to see the conversations.…
It is expected that Brennan will be attempting to lure Kevin Cummings away from taking the job at Washington.
Cummings and Brennan have a long history together.
Jedd Fisch accepts Washington job, sources told
@ActionNetworkHQ
. Arizona has team meetings w/in next hour. Arizona had opportunity to get Fisch new deal but it wasn’t a priority for school, source said. UW 2024 schedule includes: Washington State (in Seattle); home Michigan &…
The meeting with Heeke and the players went well and was brief. The players from what I’ve been told looked “happy” and “pleased” with how the meeting went as they were leaving.
Whether it’s this year or next, the moment Demond takes the field as QB1 will be special.
Finished as the
#19
QB in the class and there’s not 18 QB’s better than him.
The next 48 hours are crucial for roster retention.
If Arizona can make it to Saturday without a lot of key players and leaders announcing their intentions to enter the portal, Brennan and Arizona will have weathered any potential storm and that would bode well for certain…

I’ve been blessed to be in the media the last three seasons and to cover the great football athletes and teams we have in the state but it’s time to transition into a new chapter. I’ll still be covering hoops and college football but I’ll be taking a step back from the high…
Just letting y’all know right now. UDub is going to take him to the next level.
I wholeheartedly believe Noah will be playing on Sundays in the future. In 3-4 years when his name is called in the NFL draft remember this.
First wanted to thank god for putting me in this opportunity. Tomorrow we make it official! I will be singing my NLI tomorrow at 10:30 at centennial hs! Tune in to my instagram live if u can’t make it 👀
Ig: Official.noah3
According to
@MattRMoreno
, Rahshawn Clark has been released from his NLI.
Clark was the player I hinted at being released from his NLI in a now infamous tweet.
I wouldn’t be surprised one bit if he commits to Washington seeing as he has a good relationship with multiple staff…
Scottie Graham, current RB coach of the Wildcats is expected to join Fisch’s staff at Washington as well.
As I announced yesterday almost the entirety of the offensive staff will be leaving to join the Huskies offensive staff
Arizona is expected to hire Arizona State analyst Bobby Wade as receivers coach, a source tells
@247Sports
. Wade, who played 7 years in the NFL, returns to his alma mater, where he was inducted into the Ring of Honor in 2015.
Desert Edge had the game won on a two point conversion but a “holding” call costs the Scorpions the 5A title.
That’s the story of the night.
You be the judge?
There is an attempt to bring back Nansen as a DC, obviously financials will play a role in if it’s possible but from what I’ve been told…. They’re working on trying to make that happen.
BREAKING: San Jose State head coach Brent Brennan has accepted the offer to officially become the next head coach at the University of Arizona.
Brennan initially was offered the job last night and after consulting with his inner trust, he’s decided to head to Tucson to continue…
Rylan Griffen is a HUGE wrestling fan. Listen to him explain why he’d take Latrell Wrightsell to be his tag team partner and why Stone Cold Steve Austin would be his choice as well

Two things to note:

2. The push like I mentioned earlier for Nansen is strong and from what I’ve…

Multiple people have said this. Let me make this clear so everyone knows. I didn’t grow up a fan of either UofA or ASU and I’m still not a “fan” I’m a reporter.
In fact all I really want is for the STATE of Arizona to be the best football state in the country from high school to…
Update on team meeting.
Brennan is expected to land in Tucson around 5:50 PM.
The Team Meeting will be in the evening closer to 7PM.
Over the next eight hours Brennan and UofA officials will work on possible staff members.

There was a late push to keep Jonah in Tucson but ultimately the relationship between Coleman and Scottie Graham/Fisch was the deciding factor.
Most likely we’ll be seeing multiple kids who were on visits to Seattle this weekend committing soon, with those dominos possibly…
Arizona RB Jonah Coleman, commits to Washington.
The first domino. Absolute stud RB, fits the mold of the shorter, balanced-bruiser, with a lot of speed.
Will be weapon in the UW backfield.
BREAKING: Former Saguaro lineman Parker Brailsford is entering the portal.
Was the starting center this year for Washington’s national championship run and was the second highest graded center by PFF this season.

during his Sophomore year, these have been his numbers.
As a starter, Bruzon has been 27-2 versus in-state competition, 27-3 overall and will finish his career a perfect 14-0 in home games at Liberty…
Brennan will have the support of the NIL collective. His history of success with offenses as well as his track record of development with the wide receiver position played a big role in choosing him

If you would’ve told me the Fiesta Bowl was the best sporting event I’d get to cover this year… I’d be alright with that.
April is going to one up that by a country mile. I look forward to the Final Four
The total compensation is around $3.5 million. I see a lot of comments from outside people about the 2.6 and those trying to take a shot at Arizona’s financial situation.
The financial situation isn’t why Fisch had an offer in his lap for a month that he liked and didn’t sign.…

Can Confirm that Jesus, a 5 ⭐️ prospect from Bethlehem is entering the transfer portal.
