Coaches are yellin Players are sweatin But that ain't nothin Compared to the punishment That the other team is gettin. That's all I remember from the early '90's song they used to play at the games.

Can someone post a link for the Sterk interview? On phone or would, but go to 1090 home page, type sterk in search and it's the interview from the 24th.

Zeigler is a realist and tells it like it is . Some fans can not deal with the truth . His comments about football were years ago . They are also comments made by others. He also said on the air two weeks ago he felt this was a year the football team could get to a better bowl . D. Smith who likes College football more then NFL would like the Aztecs to succeed , so asked if football is the money maker ,why isn't more money going to football so it can succeed . Some fans are only prefer to give to a certain sport , not just Aztec sports in general . There are fans here that only support 1 sport , are they and reporters going to asked to leave if they do not support football ? There is a major money difference in P5 and G5 football .

Name Hoke's biggest win. Now name Rocky's. You are looking at Hoke like an old ex-girlfriend, all sunshine, while downplaying what you currently have. #23 Air Force and Navy (Brady Hoke). This even after no one would touch this program in two years worth of rebuilding. The real question is how many FCS teams did Brady Hoke or/and Rocky Long lose while head coach SDSU? I seem to recall a Rocky led team defeating #19 Boise State in Boise and beating them the next season as well. If you ask me those wins are more impressive than Air Force and Navy at home. Sure that loss to E. Illinois is a low point but Hoke's two years here was hardly next level stuff.

Get over the Hoke thing. He's a decent coach, nothing more. The last thing we need is a new hire like that.

And, for better or worse, Long doesn't take bowl games all that seriously. But, I do think he's been good for the program. Of course, he's not Urban Meyer, but Meyer isn't coming here.

And, for better or worse, Long doesn't take bowl games all that seriously. As evidenced by the fact that his 1-3 bowl record here would be 3-1 if one field goal is missed and another is made. Yeah, sure.

Ziegler has the power to influence San Diegans on the perception and excitement for Aztec football.
If he really wants to do a good job, become an ambassador of the program, promote it, get people excited....I think everyone would be surprised at the effect it has.

That is the biggest crock of sh*#. Every coach in America plays to WIN every game, especially bowl games, and especially Rocky.

Well then rocky is awful in postseason games Must be true. Most of our coaches have not lost a bowl game, and none of them have lost as many as him.

I see what you did there, but it will probably fly right over the heads of too many so how about we just compare the Aztecs bowl game records of the current and previous head coaches -- and for some extra flavor we can include the number of years they were head coach vs the number of bowl games they went to as well??

for those who may know . How much did donors have to raise/spend to pay out the contract of the coach before Brady ? How much went into the search group for Brady ? Did Brady or U of M have to pay 1 million for his buy out ? would have been nice if it was higher similar to what CSU received for when their coach went to Florida . When Brady left, who were other actual options knowing SDSU budget ?,believe it was late in the year and Sterk wanted continuity .

Not sure about the first part of your question, although I am sure someone here can answer. But I will say that the timing of Hoke's decision was very bad for us (right before LOI signing day). I also agree that we need to learn from the situation and make sure we raise the buyout clause the next time we hire an "rising" HC.

Rocky is our current coach at this urgent time so I don't understand why the history of his predecessors are meaningful. I commend him for getting teams being bowl eligible despite the quality of competition. However his bowl record @ UNM is 1-4, here 1-3. There's a pattern so of course some fans have questions. So the bottom line is either his bowl teams weren't as good as fans thought or he's a below average bowl game coach. Which is it?

Which is it? reading through this thread I find it interesting to see some fans celebrate the fact that SDSU has been to bowl games consistently throughout RL's tenure as HC when compared to the previous 20+ years of Aztecs football ... while others instead deflect from that accomplishment by pointing out how RL's total bowl record makes that meaningless.

Here's some food for thought ... www.philsteele.com/Blogs/2015/JULY15/DBJuly23.htmlAwesome that 3 of the Power Poll's top 5 G5s are all MWC schools ... 1. Boise St (#30) 2. BYU (#44) 3. Marshall (#45) 4. San Diego St (#49) 5. Utah St (#52) "The next question you might be asking is, “ how is the Power Poll calculated?” To evaluate teams, I rely on nine different [sets] of power ratings that look at different factors. The Power Poll is an aggregate of all nine sets of power ratings, so it tends to be the most accurate summation of how I rate each team. In essence, the Power Poll is the result of numerous computer rankings that have been developed over many years of close study."

His job is a reporter - not a PR person He does an excellent job, he writes so many great stories & to boot there's never a fee to read all the UT content any time you want.
