In this latest episode, hosts Bill Shirley, Jake Merrifield and I have a very special guest join us to talk about the upcoming Arizona-UCLA Football game. Former Wildcat Brandon Nash (1998-2001) joins us in-studio as we prep for this week’s game.
We start the episode with Nash giving us a behind-the-scenes look at one of the greatest Arizona Football teams in program history as the 1998 Wildcats went 12-1, 7-1 under the guidance of one of the greatest coaches in program history, Dick Tomey.
Nash also dishes on how Arizona took a dramatic downturn with Tomey’s replacement, John Mackovic, who went 5-6 in Nash’s final season and why players turned on him a few seasons later.
