Slingblade hires yet another guy who has been a position coach for a million years with no coordinator experience.

Too early to speculate who Phil and Pat have reset the entire program in two years.

Can't wait until they push Helfrich out to promote Hoke!

Hoke is well known for success taking over for spread option coaches.

I we? deserve Owen Twelve.

The absurd number of Duck fans? everywhere with their claim "Hoke is a great defensive coordinator, solid hire!" With a very few number of people like me replying "He hasn't called a defense since he was a high school coach in 1982."

Every single one of us have been right since the start. The guys in Oregon camp trying to find positives, but the reality is if your head coach sucks your program sucks.

Slingblade is moving around bad coaches, snagging free agents to replace the talent Chip left him that he hasn't been able to replace recruiting, and trying to be smart but he's just a shitty coach. Hard work doesn't matter if it's towards nothing.

Yeah that sounds extremely (and horrifyingly) familiar

Welcome to hell

Sling blade is a soft loser. Didn't matter who he hired.

I'm hearing Chip's coming back and Slingblade's going back to OC. It's been the agreement from the beginning. He only left so the NCAA would go easy on the Ducks, but his heart's been in Oregon this whole tim. Just what I'm hearing.

Slingblade delivered Mariota by discovering him when he was just a back up in pee wee, gave him a full ride on the spot.

The guy has an eye for talent.

Just give him some more time to get his own guys in there.

THAT is your complaint about Hoke? That he hasn't been a coordinator?

You're a weird dude.

allpurpleallgold · January 2016

I swear I was just reading about how Slingblade was working so hard and making big moves with his staff.

Muttzen · January 2016

I turned to my wife and said thank God we have a coach like slingblade who is an oregon man and will be here longer than chip kelly

The guy was a head coach for twelve years. Calling a defense is not some magical ability only acquired through experience as a coordinator. He's been on the defensive side of the ball his whole life including for some very good teams. He knows the basic procedures of making defensive calls. This isn't some up-jumped lifelong position coach with no other experience.

The real concerns are:

1. He sucked as a head coach at Michigan and wasn't great at his previous stops. He might be a poor leader.
2. He is old and kind of washed up. Does he have any innovative ideas or is he stuck in the 90s?
3. Do his philosophies clash with the rest of the staff?

Horrible abundance attempt. Don't try so hard.

Howdy, Stranger!
