Also Lubick is a riser. Has taken a new job every few years since the mid-90s. Probably wants to be the head man like his dad.

Was in a pretty good position as OC for the Ducks at just 44 years old until the epic Helfrich meltdown last year.

With three new jobs in one offseason he must be desperate to find the right landing spot to get back on track.

All that being said I expect this to be a one year situation with either Smith ~~or Lubick~~ moving on next January.

I wouldn't have complained if they brought back any of the offensive coaches. Albeit, I don't think Lubick had the it factor that Frost did in terms of coaching or recruiting.

He was one of the only position coaches (read: not coordinators) that people wanted to hang onto. Did a great job with the WRs, pretty good recruiter, son of Sonny Lubick. So, you know, bloodlines or something.

Hard to say how good he was as an OC. The offense as a whole performed reasonably well last year by Oregon standards, but there was some bizarre play-calling.

Sling or Lube? It's anyone's guess.

Also, if someone could figure out which member of last year's brain trust decided to get the hook out for West Dakota Fanning and put in Herbert that would also be a good data point.

For that matter, whoever called the play where Vernon Adams tucked and ran in the backfield and got knocked the hell out against TCU (that was Lubick's first game as OC). Who am I kidding, that was probably Adams - he just went out there and ripped it no matter what the called play was.

Apparently he really likes being out West, since he's fled from a bunch of jobs down South, so unless USC comes calling, you? should be able to hang onto him.
