The new Arizona Wildcats head coach speaks out for the first time since being hired.
Niumatalolo had emerged as the leading candidate for the Wildcats' vacancy.
Coaches teach lessons, pushing players out of their comfort zones. But Rodriguez seems to have crossed the line.
With the UA job on the negotiating table, the longtime Navy coach is "thinking it through on all fronts."
