Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Assuming Pete is smart enough to get a new OC & QB coach at season's end, who do we want?

    Slingblade is a real possibility given his friendship with Pete

    Quite honestly, I don't know much about Hellfreak's prowess as OC. I just don't want Pete to hire a friend and keep him on the job even if he stinks.

    Hire a good coach, not necessarily a friend.
    True, it's tough to really judge how good of an OC/QB coach he was by himself given that most of his time there was spent working with 2 high caliber offensive coaches in Chip and Scott Frost (who is absolutely killing it at UCF)

    That's who I want. Taking off your purple tinted glasses
    Oregon has had a top notch offense forever. Helfrich
    has been ingrained in it. Perfect offense for Yankoff
    and our running backs.

    He is Oregons Gilby. Fuck it.

    The problem is that Pete won't (and rightfully shouldn't) pick a OC/QB coach now based off of any assumptions as to who wins the QB competition between those 2. Needs to be someone who is flexible enough to build an offense around the better one's strengths (Sirmon's arm vs. Yankoff's mobility).

    But he definitely can't hire someone with a rigid offensive philosophy who'd try and fit a square peg into a round hole (see Miles, Cyler and Smith, Jonathan)

    Doesn't make much sense then why you'd recruit two
    quarterbacks with vastly different styles. I'm at least hoping
    Sirmon has some running ability. If he can at least move as well
    as Justin Herbert then Helfrich I think would be a hell of a hire.
    Just don't let Sirmon or Yankoff run goal line keepers.

    Wasn't Gilby a hell of a coordinator?
