Herm will be Back in 2022

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

What are you basing your "energy" comments on? Herm is older than a lot of coaches, but he is actually a high energy person. He is regularly in the weight room working out before the players.

I will spare you my tirade against ageism since I know you are a U of A fan poking fun at our team. But be sure to stay out of the HR field with those kinds of comments.

Lol. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, fans on an internet sports board aren’t working for any entity that owes a duty of care to a protected class. Your insistence on bringing that up is just silliness.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I prefer my news straight. I can form my own opinions.

Bickley is more editorial columnist than news journalist. I don’t understand why people can’t get that.

Bickley would be a tame columnist in most big markets. Phoenix media has always been pretty soft.

The articles I choose to read are mostly for facts. I'm not looking for the writer's opinion.

Wow, is Crow that stupid?

ASU President, Michael Crow appeared on Arizona Sports this morning. Here are a few takes.

A ruling on the NCAA investigation is likely some 10-12 months down the road.

Those who do not play by the rulers are gone. Herm Edwards did not ask them to violate the rules.

ASU is making adjustments. They will be looking at a hybrid pro-model going forward.

Then I will say it again, if it is not ok to post racist messages, or posts demeaning the fact that some people are gay, or putting people down because they are Jewish, then why is it ok to post comments that demean people because of their age?

Also ASU Athletic Director Ray Anderson is now on Arizona Sports. He discusses adjusting the pro model among other things.

A definite PR effort is underfoot.

I didn't get much from listening to Ray Anderson, mostly filler about the new college model.

What is "the new college model"?

What is "the new college model"?

As I view it, it involves things like the transfer portal and things like NIL, which allows players to make money over name, image and likeness.

He's pushing this "no timeline" idea. I'd have to go back and look at previous articles, but I thought we were promised certain things within the time frame of Herm's original contract.

The article is mostly a recap and quotes from the interview with Ray Anderson.

If you find any promises let me know.

Wow, surprised to see Crow put his own a## on the line with these comments. Time will tell whether he or the "three people with direct knowledge" who are sources for this reporting is right about what happened, but for now it sure seems like a big disconnect with respect to Herm's involvement.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Bickley would be a tame columnist in most big markets. Phoenix media has always been pretty soft.

Having lived in Boston and DC I completely agree. But then again, a good segment of the cardinals board goes apoplectic if you dare criticize a player or team, so I’m not sure the valley could handle real tough sports reporting.

That response to herm is spot on. I don’t micromanage my team but they sure as hell know where the boundaries are, and if they aren’t sure they know to ask for guidance.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Then I have no idea why you would read anything bickley writes. That’s more a you issue than a bickley issue.

Lol. So wash, rinse repeat. Lame.

No one has actually said anything demeaning about the elderly. So far one person (me) expressed an opinion that college aged kids may be more attracted to a younger coach and another poster made a comment about getting someone with energy that you interpreted as a comment that herm doesn’t have energy.

So . . . what every college program is doing. Got it.

I don't. I quit reading him years ago.
