As Arizona athletic director Dave Heeke was walking toward the visiting locker room at Mountain America Stadium late Saturday afternoon, his grin was from ear to ear. But behind that smile was also the understanding that the 59-23 win over ASU made it even more likely his department would have to pony up to ensure coach Jedd Fisch didn’t get poached by another program.
“We’re gonna do everything we can to keep Jedd around here as long as we can,” Heeke said to a handful of reporters who had made the trip up north for the Territorial Cup.
