DONE DEAL:ARIZONA wildcat Football Just Officially Announces The Signing Of Top Experienced Superstar From
After a swift two-day search, former San Jose State University head coach Brent Brennan is set to become the 31st head coach of the Arizona football team. The news emerged on the evening of Jan. 15, indicating that Brennan had been offered the position.
Then today, Tuesday, Jan. 16, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel and 247 Sports’ Jason Scheer, the Arizona Wildcats have reportedly reached a five-year agreement with Brennan to appoint him as the next head football coach.
The 50-year-old Brennan will take the reins of a
Wildcats team that concluded the previous season with a 10-3 record, an Alamo Bowl victory over No. 12 University of Oklahoma and securing a No. 11 ranking in the final Associated Press Top 25. This ranking marked the program’s highest in nine years and tied for the second-highest in a final poll, behind the No. 4 finish following the 1998 season when the Wildcats went 12-1. However, coupled with this decision, Arizona lost its defensive coordinator, Johnny Nansen to the University of Texas and former head coach, Jedd Fisch to the University of Washington. The coaching change now allows more Arizona players to decide whether to stay and see what Brennan has in store or enter the transfer portal, as some have already done.
