Arizona football coach Rich Rodriguez found a quarterback for the 2017 season – his son, Rhett, a Catalina Foothills High School junior who has passed for almost 4,000 yards in two seasons.

Rhett has accepted a scholarship offer and will play under his father at Arizona.

Rhett's addition will bring in a brain that knows the system inside and out.

It will be fun to see Rhett go from the boy holding the towels to helping give the play signals and potentially play a role on the team.

Rich, of course, was the head coach at West Virginia and Michigan.

Best of luck to the young man. He should be a excellent fit for the Rodriguez offense scheme. Rhett probably knows it well already, growing up around it.

That will also help to end the RR to WVU or anywhere else, but only when the ink is dry. Like father like son, he will bolt if something better comes along before then.

No one? Obviously, you're only speaking for yourself and fellow haters, who are violating the basic tenent of Christianity.

Rich is a West Virginia native. A Mountaineer. And he did the best coaching job at WVU in the 21st century. So we went for more money. Who doesn't? Was he an *** for his comments from Ann Arbor? Of course. But WVU management at that time was equally to blame. If Oliver Luck had been here with Rich, he still would be at WVU and we might have our first national title, and certainly a Big 12 title with Geno, Tavon and Stedman, the best offensive trio in Mountaineer history.

"No one"? Hardly. Even you would be cheering Rich if he won the Big 12 and maybe a national title for WVU.

Hell, Huggins turned down WVU, too, you know. Do why did you allow him to return? How is that working out? Maybe Rich coming back would have the same results. Who knows?

Hate is an ugly thing. It makes the hater the target and the target the winner. Is that what you really want, for Rich to be a winner at your expense?

Not to be a smart ***, but who really cares? I for one could give a rats *** about what Arizona does or doesn't do.

A once respected sports journalist now depends on negative attention from the Internet to stave off feeling completely irrelevant



Where have we seen this happen before?

Wouldnt say this guarantees that RR never comes back, is this kid actually supposed to contribute? If he is just going to be 3rd or 4th on the depth chart he can easily transfer if we were to hypothetically hire RR and assume the same role even if he sits out a year.

Shawn Penn: "I’m really sad about the state of journalism in our country. It has been an incredible hypocrisy and an incredible lesson in just how much they don’t know and how disserved we are…Again, journalists who want to say that I’m not a journalist. Well, I want to see the license that says that they’re a journalist."

It was fun to have Rich here in his prime and when his offense was a unique and difficult thing to prepare for (with the exception of Jim Leavitt). It was sad the way it ended and sad to watch a promising-looking coach just fade into mediocrity/obscurity. Good to see his son will get to play for him, but unless he has some new coaching revelation that makes his team suddenly have a streak of 9,10, or 11 win seasons and some big bowl wins, I have no desire to bing him back. He's been very inconsistent over the last 8 years. I think he'd fare no better than Dana in the Big 12.

You will get your wish. Rich ain't coming back. No one has a desire to bring him back. Yes................I agree that it's all sad. Even the $4M a year salary that Arizona pays him is sad.
