    Small time

    25-13 over the last 3 years at Oregon State is quite good. In fact, it's probably one of the best 3 year stretches ever for Oregon State. Oregon State is a historically bad program that had an all time NCAA record 28 straight losing seasons from 1971-98, and was 7-29 in the 3 years before he was hired.

    Still, I'm very skeptical of the idea that we can pay our coaches more than Michigan State, which 1. Is getting a full Big Ten share 2. Has much less travel costs 3. Themselves started this new trend of $10 million a year coaches by giving that to Mel Tucker of all people.

    And we're going to have to outbid MSU not just by a little but by a lot to get him in mid-January.

    Dennis Erickson won the Fiesta Bowl

    Reilly was another loser who "did great" for Oregon State. He sucked too

    Winners win where they are. Smith is a loser

    Small time hire by a small time program

    I don’t understand the poo pooing of Jonathan Smith here. He basically made OS into what most teams would kill for. A dominant Oline with dominant RB’s and a decent Defense. And a big play passing offense despite having shitty QB’s.

    He’d be on the A list for sure if He was still in Cornvalley. I never understood him going to East Lansing as they are the worst fit for someone like him. I guarantee that He’s regretting it today.

    He won 2/3 of his games once He got his guys in there in a place that’s slightly less difficult to recruit to than Pullman.

    I'm sure WSU will be in the market soon. He'd be a good fit for you

    7mm buyout, easily covered by the 12mm we'll get from bama.

    Do it UW.

    That $12M is going toward the stadium debt
    Pea patch?

    Would it be worth it for the sake of endless memes of 90 year old eastern European women?
