Let the search begin. Ron james is a great guy. He would make a great choice as head coach. They should think about bringing back hunckie cooper and possibly lee leslie who is know with the boise burn of the af2 league. May not as head coach but leslie and cooper would be great coordinators.

Ron James will either be the coach of the blaze or we risk losing him to another team in the league. I dont think there is any question he would like to stay in utah. dont let him get away front office!

Danny White was not a good coach why do think Arizona let him go. He always thought it was someone elses fault that they lost. He was lucky this season that his players did not quit on him.

Good riddance Danny and take the rest of the Blaze with you.

Coach White was a great coach. He wouldn't be in the HALL of Fame coach in the AFL if he wasn't. Period!!I THINK UTAH made a good decision though. Let him go and we will try someone new. Good luck to him. We will see him with another team I bet!!!

It is ttime for the Blaze to hire Ron James. He is an excellent coach who deserves a chance to run this team.

I know that Danny did his best. You can only do so much with what you have to work with. The players in Arizona love to play for him, and they were also his friends, they had a great one on one. Danny puts his all into everything he does. He'll come out on top again.
