Recruiting will take a step back to Chris Petersen at UW range but this is ultimately an upgrade imo.
The defense at Oregon under Wilcox will be improved but until proven otherwise I think Wiclox has offense AIDS. He just spreads it to whomever coaches offense under him. Baldwin was on an upward arc until he met Wilcox. Musgrave was an uninspired choice but even he is under what he produced at Virginia. This was the main reason I was wary of the Wilcox superior culture coming to UW. I just can’t handle any more bad offense.
I'm sure they will get a big-time OC but yeah, that's not necessarily a predictor of success. See: Joe Moorhead.
My fear is that Wilcox, as an alum, could end up the type who's there for 20 years. It might not be lightning in a bottle right away but he's going to bring stability and might be less about the glitzy glamorous Oregon hype machine. Oregon has a culture problem imo and Wilcox could very well be the type to fix it, or at least add a little substance to their charade. He will have the tools to do it. I could see him becoming Oregon's Whittingham. Not saying this will for sure happen by any means but I think it's a decent possibility that he's exactly what Oregon needs.
Oregon needs a head coach who has never won anything or been particularly good in any way.
How many dimensions of chess must they be playing to have formed such a strategy, where only you and Kim can see the brilliance of it?
JFC I hope they hire Wilcox. I love Oregon with reduced recruiting prowess, overachieving "superior culture", and no offense.

Yes, as a Junction City kid and UO alum, he probably seems appealing from a "we're a stepping stone school" perspective

This is a bunch of platitude nonsense that doesn't mean anything. Bringing "stability" means nothing unless you're a good coach. This is one of those buzzwords on Twitter people throw out to try and sound smart. What does 'might be less about the glitzy glamorous Oregon hype machine' mean? How do you qualify this? Gibberish.

Can you name literally any metric outside of "has ties to the physical area" that says Wilcox could be their Whittingham? Literally every sentence you typed is brutal wharrgarble nonsense.

I prefer revolving door Oregon coaching. In fact, I love it. You don't see it that way and that's cool, Chuck. That's cool.
Didn't realize suggesting Wilcox could be a good hire for Oregon was so triggering. What a bunch of fags.
Wilcox sucks. I pray they hire him.
You may be right. You also may not be right. I'm just saying there's a decent possibility of him being better at Oregon with their resources than you might think. You folks need some Xannies.

Bro, did you read the context? I'm saying there's a part of me that thinks that he could be the type to do so. Not saying he will ffs. I don't consider my opinion to be fact unlike some here. I'm raising the point that he could be good for Oregon as devil's advocate. Chill.
Didn't realize suggesting Wilcox could be a good hire for Oregon was so triggering. What a bunch of fags.
Haha. Well said.
I'm not triggered at all. I used to be a Wilcox "booster" of sorts, changed to more of a fence sitting excuser, and have recently had a change of heart on him. I just don't understand what he has done to get himself mentioned for any FCS jobs. He has one HC position on his resume. At it's absolute best, his tenure there has been excusable because Cal. There isn't anything that stands out at all though. He's given UW and Oregon some problems. What else? Title contention? Cranking out NFL players? High end recruiting? Leading statistically at anything?
I just don't see what Wilcox has done, or does, that puts him in the conversation. That's all.

A decent possibility is enough to justify a hire of a coach who has never succeeded anywhere?
Wouldn't you prefer to look at guys where the "decent possibility" is actually demonstrated by something that has actually happened?

He actually could be. I don't think it's a high probability, but I see your main point. I mean there are mega resources there, and if he could luck into or find a really quality innovative offensive mind he could maybe do some damage there. I'd have hated him at UW, but there is a different dynamic there.
The one thing that would worry me as a Duck fan (and you alluded to this arguing the other way though) is his "stable" (read that as boring) type mentality. Oregon has always been loud, garish and new money rich. It's a huge part of their persona. That is not Wilcox. So I appreciate you thinking he might "fix" that in a sense, but I think fixing it would break them. It's a 2nd tier school in a shithole town. What makes them get top 10 recruiting classes is the new money swagger.
Just my thoughts. On balance, I hope like fuck UO hires Wilcocks because I think there is a 10% chance or less he kills it. But there is a chance.
