Arizona is batting about .500 on ex-Michigan coaches. (We're going to ignore RichRod's lightning-in-a-bottle 2014 season, and Larry Smith is too far in the past for consideration. Jim Young, too.) Do they take another swing? :) If they offered the job to Sherrone (something I don't see likely for multiple reasons), taking it would be a no-brainer.

I heard Fisch in an interview share a funny story  that his wife was wearing a “Michigan vs Everybody” sweatshirt for the National Title game last week.  He had to tell her that she probably shouldn’t be wearing that now that he’s the head coach at another school.  
Good luck to him, except when he plays M.

This sucks for Arizona. They were looking at making the 12-team field next year. Now the core of that team will likely transfer. 

If the 9M/year is accurate though, no brainer for “Jeff” 

I would expect they come after both Michigan coordinators.

Explains what Grubb said - that he wanted the Washington job, but UW was already going after Fisch.

Good hire for them, under the circumstances. Jedd is an excellent coach that really turned Arizona around.
