    Not going to happen.

    Why not? It's a replay from the past when Mike Riley returned to Corvallis (replacing Erickson).

    Pete leaving and Smith being promoted to head coach with playcalling duties would be great.

    The Doogicide would be funny.

    Yikes! Let’s compare situations. Suitcase Denny arrived in Corvallis after the San Diego Chargers hired Mike Riley to be their Head Coach. They were on the rise when He got there.


    While Denny may have still been on the sauce, He was still in his prime. It was his first college gig after an 8-8 fest in the NFL. And Denny was as good of college coach as there was in his prime.

    However Denny is 20 years older now and OSU is Pettibone era now. While Denny is one of the great college coaches of his era. He’s not Bill Snyder who has bled for one school for 40 years. He won’t be able to assemble a staff that can go out and rip the fallen angels like He had before in Corvallis. Would be a bad move for them.

    Never stopped them before. They hired Jerry Pettibone for fucks sake.

    Then they made these socks for their FOOTBALL TEAM:

    Jerry Pettibone is my favorite classy Beaver coach

    We used to get the NW coaches shows on the old Prime network

    Taggart leaving for Florida State, collapsing your recruiting class and all program momentum, and handing us Treshaun on a silver platter would be great. Please and thank you.
    Coaching changes don't always collapse recruiting classes. UW fans just see it that way, but it didn't actually happen here when TW or Sark left. Neither of those assholes bothered recruiting their last season leaving the new guy to start from scratch (Pete succeeded, Sark did not).

    This isn't the case at Oregon. They have the resources to get a good staff quickly, and the new staff would have a good core of commits to work with. They'd lose a few but their class would be fine.

    Momentum? But I thought he was Black Sark?

    You know, cause he’s black and you guys had Sark. It’s just the maths.

    The win for UW would be long term. The FLA kids would bail on them this year, but long term UW is still competing for that core of commits you're talking about.
