John Mackovic was one of the worst coaches in Arizona history, so let's remember that era a little bit.
I have almost no memory of John Mackovic. I remember some of the players at Arizona during that time - Bobby Wade and Lance Briggs, in particular - and I remember Dick Tomey. But I've tried to repress any memories of John Mackovic at Arizona.
John Mackovic was the head coach at Arizona from 2001 to 2003. He had previously been the head coach of the Texas Longhorns, but was fired in 1997 and didn't hold a coaching job during that four year gap, instead working as an analyst for ESPN.
