He just arrived into town, be ready for the big announcement tomorrow guys. Oldie Out The long-time SDSU fan in me is suspicious that Chuck Long is going to get off of that plane. Based on what? Fear and insecurity?

Didn't Sanders demote him this year? Anyone that’s been demoted is not a good sign It's not how many times you get knocked down, it's how many times you rise up! I like a guy with a chip on his shoulder and a point to prove. Kind of the Aztecs way, wouldn't you say?

"...my family and I can't express how excited we are to be joining this incredible community," Lewis said. "We are looking forward to partnering with all of you in serving and leading our amazing football program. This time is now to support and make Snapdragon Stadium the place to be for Fast, Physical, Fun Aztec Football."If that was the pitch he made to JD, I can see how he got the job. Should be music to the ears of many here... It's just coach speak. Keep in mind in an earlier post in this thread he pretty much gave the same spiel when introduced to the CU team. I like that outsiders give us kudos for signing him. Unfortunately it's a long time before kick off to find out.

Impressive press conference.
Disappointed that the media didn't ask one question on:
defensive philosophy-with SDSU running the 3/3/5 for so many years, will you be looking for a DC that runs this system or are you looking for a new system?
Staff- do you already know who some of your staff will be?

Wow, the press conference was really good and got me excited again, which I guess is what it was supposed to do. I was actually hard to keep up with Coach and how fast he speaks after listening to Hoke and his hemming and hawing and gravel-mouthed speech. This guys was fast and decisive, which hopefully is how he'll run the team.
President de la Torre wasn't bad either.
AD Wicker on the other hand, his speech I thought was terrible. Full of mistakes, re-speaks, and didn't sound genuine. I was actually surprise at how bad he was, but didn't care once I heard Coach talk himself.

Lewis being a Wisconsin guy, the Badgers always had HUGE quality O-linemen and a powerful running game. I hope he can recruit the same to the Mesa.

Dino Babers for OC! He coached at SDSU and has strong West Coast ties and good recruiter.

DLT has really grown on me over her time as president. I was skeptical at first because of her background at CAL, but she has been a pleasant Suprise.

Dino Babers having been on The Mesa early in his career, and now we have a HC who very clearly points to Babers as probably being the strongest influence -- coming from "the Dino Babers coaching tree".
