    Rich Brooks' 17-year plan to lose the Rose Bowl

    It’s actually amazing that he was able to get a team to win the conference given the lack of support he was given by the AD and boosters.

    Phil Knight/Nike didn’t kick in until after the 1995 Rose Bowl.

    BTW: Oregon started that season, 1-2, losing to Hawaii on the road and Utah at home.

    It was remarkable the Ducks won the conference that year.

    Shout out to Damon Huard and Kenny Wheaton for the memories.

    We know all that. My line was a longstanding joke around these parts. @iDawg always said that Brooks' 17-year plan made the Communists' plan look like child's play

    It was actually very pathetic what Brooks had to work with. Oregon was so desperate they hired a Beaver alum as Head Coach,

    It was fun being a fan because they always played hard at home. Brooks was a hard-nosed defensive minded coach who ran a very predictable offense.

    God help a running back who fumbled. To the bench. When you came back, another fumble, you may be in the Dawg house for the season.

    Penn State had a great team in 1994.

    Oregon did not have the level of talent nor the depth.

    Given it's "Hate Week" how would you rank the Oregon coaches by which ones you can or can't stand the most since college football was invented in 1994?

    Most Likable
    1. Taggart - Got the fuck out of Eugene at the first opportunity. The fact he even went 7-6 and hasn't been able to put up anything better since in equally easy situations is a testament to the mystery that is Oregon success.
    2. Helfrich - Can't think of a less of a personality for a head coach. He also delivered the 70-21 jubilation in Eugene.
    3. Brooks - Too young to remember this dude. Maybe he sucked. He got out of Eugene quick though which I commend and quickly found out that you can't be average and suck and reach great heights once you're out of the shroud of that program. He was there for 17 seasons LMAO!!
    4. Bellotti - The first I don't like. Never took another job too because he knew he would suck without Nike.
    5. Chipper - He's kind of got a thing with Husky fans like Libs have with George W now where in hindsight he doesn't seem so bad. Personally I kind of actually liked Chip's odd no bullshit persona and I don't think he ever preached hating Washington. I hate the temporary shitty hurry up bullshit he started though and he should have left earlier.
    6. Lanning - I'm shocked this guy is anything but roadkill as a head coach. Entire vibe is fake door to door solar panel salesman or Verizon booth at the mall legend.
    7. Crisco - Fuck this guy. Reignited an unnecessary hate for Washington and was just a giant doofus who is a joke of a coach outside of the Nike shroud. It's too bad Miami didn't actually play Washington in 91 because there'd assuredly be footage of Emptman trash compacting him.
    Least Likable

    I meant he got out of there the first opportunity he got unlike the guys after him. Though, in minor defense of those guys, the program was in much better places when they were getting offers. I will say Chip was super smart to wait until he got the Eagles offer instead of taking a shitty NFL offer, which is what separates him from a lot of meathead football coaches. I think Crisco was too scurred and new he was a pretender other than the Miami job that he finally had to take.

    1. Brooks - Nebraska classy. Knew his place. If he's good enough for @DongJames he's good enough fo me.
    2. Chip - Could have helped us get rid of Sark much sooner but was too break out the plunger. Grudging respect. Winners win.
    3. Helfrich - Needed more tim.
    4. Booger finger - Hasn't given me reason to hate him. Yet.
    5. Bellotti - Leveled Oregon up but was basically their Lambo, shitty stache and all. Nothing special.
    6. Taggert - Blessed us with memes but a hatable persona.
    7. Crisco - Turned @creepycoug into a fucking Quook. Unforgivable.

    Propping up your coach by shitting on the only good one you've? had in 20 years is a new level of doog. No surprise considering the source. Peterman quit, we get it, he was supposed to lead a decade(s) long dynasty. This shit is hilarious tho.

    Season after winning the conference and having recruiting momentum, Petersen's 8th win was a bowl game against a mountain west team.

    Fuck off loser.
    lose a CFPO gayme and pop off
    Imagine being a butthurt loser for this long over Peterson leaving you because he fell out of love. LOL.................................
