CONNECTTWEETLINKEDINCOMMENTEMAILMORETUCSON, Ariz. —
Tomey spent 14 years at Arizona, going 95-64 while taking the Wildcats to seven bowl games, including the Fiesta Bowl in 1993. Arizona went 12-1 in 1998 under Tomey and beat Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl to finish a program-best No. 4 in The Associated Press poll. "He was hard on them. He constantly raised the bar. He could do that because he knew how to find the goodness and the talent in people. If he didn't find it immediately, he kept looking until he did, and once he found goodness/talent he never lost sight of it."
