For Star subscribers: Jedd Fisch’s overhaul of Arizona’s wayward football operation isn’t really a rebuilding job as much as it’s a full transplant. Part I is working,
Greg Hansen If all goes according to Jedd Fisch’s boundless ambition, Arizona’s spring football game will someday draw 15,000 or 20,000 fans, he will no longer have to hire entertainment acts, supply thousands of free water guns to fans, or count on Tedy Bruschi and Adia Barnes to help create a buzz.
It would’ve been interesting to see how many UA fans would’ve been at Arizona Stadium for, say, a 6:30 p.m., kickoff. Maybe 10,000. Maybe more. The wall-to-wall positivity emitted by Fisch’s football program — its bountiful recruiting harvest and continued commitment to elite-level coaching staff — has kick-started a lot of optimism.Fisch’s overhaul of Arizona’s wayward football operation isn’t really a rebuilding job as much as it’s a full transplant.
To his credit, Fisch has reached out to everyone, and it is working. He estimated that at least 250 former Wildcats returned to campus for the weekend. In a golf outing Friday at Forty Niner Country Club, two men who assisted greatly in breaking up ASU’s domination of the Territorial Cup — Chuck Cecil and Craig Vesling — shared a golf cart.
Fifita and de Laura can play. It took about five snaps to see that Saturday. Fifita, a freshman, has arm strength, accuracy and command that go beyond his modest size . De Laura can improvise as well as run Fisch’s NFL-style offense. When Fisch declined to name a No. 1 quarterback entering the offseason, de Laura shrugged. He knows he can successfully play in the Pac-12.If you’ve got a Pac-12-caliber offensive line, you’re not going to go 1-11 any longer, either.
"I feel stronger, quicker, smarter," Morgan said last week."I got a little more weight, I feel healthier, I can move better, I’m stronger overall." As Arizona’s spring game began Saturday, it was 49 degrees in wintry Fargo, North Dakota, home of the defending and seven-time FCS national champion North Dakota State Bison. For its spring game, NDSU expects a sellout at the 18,000-seat Fargodome on April 26. The Bison will receive their national championship rings.
