I have always said, my number one role is to surround myself with great people, and I have done that! We have an OUTSTANDING equipment staff and I couldn't be any happier with our work and attitude.
Our staff does an incredible job each week in making sure we have our team ready to play the game. I think what I like the most is they get the job done and seem to have a GREAT time doing it. I have said this before, but we have awesome leadership and 8 incredible new managers that are picking things up rapidly!
I have told many people close to me that I can't remember the last time I had this much fun coming to work. It is so much fun to see things come together as planned.
Like I said, we sure wish the outcome of the game was better, but we see our team improving after playing such a tough schedule. This will be the third Top 10 team in a row that we have had to play. Many of our younger players are really getting an opportunity to learn the college game at an extremely high level.
Below are some pictures of our work this past Saturday in our game against Stanford.

Many home game weekends, we host recruits from all over the nation, and I always speak to them before the team arrives at to the locker room:

Longtime friend, Andre Moore of Houston, TX, came to Tucson to spend the weekend and game with me:
