Having an exclusive interview at the legendary UofA bar Dirtbags, Coach Brennan spoke to us about several hot topics. His genuine and sincere manner was shining through his determination to make the necessary steps to get Arizona football to where it wants to be. Not only is his advanced knowledge of the game itself on a whole other level, but it’s also his desire to build it in the right way he was taught while envisioning his beliefs and bringing them to life. He knows what it takes: time, commitment, and culture.

Dirtbags is a staple for any Wildcat and the most iconic bar in all of Tucson, AZ. They recently opened up their second location in the Arcadia area, showing that “wildcat country” isn’t just a phrase. Not only do they have the iconic Dirtbags logo, drinks, and ambiance. You also never know who might stop by there for some great conversation.
