ATLANTA (AP) — Raheem Morris wants to make the most of his second opportunity as the Atlanta Falcons' coach. Morris brought up the Super Bowl loss and said he will be motivated to bring Atlanta its first championship. “I would never, ever feel slighted ... for what people would feel about coach Belichick, right?”Team president Greg Beadles said Belichick “was obviously a serious candidate. “I do understand the importance of being the first Black coach in Atlanta history without an interim tag,” Morris said. “He’s got two rings,” Fontenot said of Morris, who also won a Super Bowl as a Tampa Bay assistant.

SEATTLE (AP) — Looking out at Lake Washington and the Cascade Mountains from his new football offices, Jedd Fisch saw a place that can consistently contend for championships.

"Recruiting was first and foremost the number one consideration in who we were looking for.”At Washington, Fisch will immediately be tasked with putting his recruiting skills to use. “I loved my time at (Arizona),” Fisch said. ___AP college football: https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-football-poll and https://apnews.com/hub/college-football

Washington has targeted Arizona's Jedd Fisch and is negotiating a deal with him to succeed Kalen DeBoer as the next coach of the Huskies, according to a person with knowledge of the talks. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because Arizona and Fisch were not making any public announcements yet. Less than a week after playing for the national championship, the Huskies moved quickly to fill the vacancy created when DeBoer left for Alabama. Arizona is moving to the Big 12 starting next season but is facing financial issues within its athletic department, and Fisch could see more stability at Washington. Fisch, 47, would be the fourth head coach at Washington since the 2019 season.
