New coach intends to fill stadium, improve offense

New UA football head coach John Mackovic has high expectations and goals now that he is at the helm of the Arizona football program.

Nothing is more important to Mackovic, though, than reaching the Rose Bowl.

"First of all, I want to be the best, and I want Arizona Wildcat football to be the best," Mackovic said. "What that measurement is, first of al,l we have to get to and win the Rose Bowl. This university has not been there, and that would be my number one obligation to our team, our university and our fans."
