    Big, big loss for Oregon IMO. This will negatively affect their defense bigly.

    Thats alot of Pepsi.
    Either Leavitt got fired, or was half-assing it so much that they decided it was worth 4.5 Wazzu assistant salaries to let him go.

    Agree he was an upgrade from Demetrice Martin. Of course thats not saying much since Meat is the worst DBs coach I've ever seen. Not just at UW but everywhere hes been.

    Its not like the guys who washed out blew up elsewhere. Jermaine Kelly was somehow a 7th round pick even though he didn't distinguish himself at SJSU. Cleveland Wallace was 2nd team all Mountain West and went undrafted. Thats about it. He probably should have gone after Demontae Kazee but he only had a month after getting hired in 2012.

    I agree he is somewhere in the neighborhood of decent to good. Not bad.

    But how is he qualified to be a DC?
    He certainly wouldn’t be my first choice if I’m Oregon, but he’s been a long-time position coach with varying success at several major programs. So he definitely has the resume to finally get a promotion, just not at a school that is trying to prime itself as a national contender.

    Tracy Claeys from Wazzu to Oregon confirmed.

    Fair point on what he left in the DB ranks upon his departure. He actually recruited really well for us, but the early departures of guys like Kelly and Enewally definitely hurt the roster he was putting together and negated those gains.

    However, it’s also worth mentioning that he inherited a Demetrice Martin secondary that was instrumental to us having the 116th best pass defense in the country in 2011. We’re talking Baylor bowl game, worst secondary in school history bad. And in his two years here our pass defense was 23rd and 61st in the nation. Guys like Trufant and Glenn, who both had breakthrough senior years, were pretty key players in that turnaround. Given the absolute turd that Heyward took over for and the quick results he was able to squeeze out, I would absolutely grade him out as somewhere in the neighborhood of good.
    So a couple of 4 year starters came on as seniors.

    He recruited well if only the big gets had been good enough to stay on the roster.

    He recruited 6'3" bean pole Kevin King, a future NFL corner, and moved him to safety where he was shitty and got the shit beat out of him

    His secondary executed a historic example of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in the AC.

    He left behind such stellar depth that Sid Jones, a true freshman,and John Ross we're the two best corners on the roster the year after he left.

    Any other iron clad examples of how wrong I was?

    No, I think we’ve touched on them all

    If Leavitt was younger, had been a head coach in the past decade, or was REALLY good someone would hire him no matter how many walk-ons he choked. K-State and Texas Tech took a hard pass, and those programs have nothing to lose. If they thought Leavitt could win there no one in West Texas would give a fuck you hit some kid.

    Urban Meyer could livestream himself mouth fucking a nun, taking breaks for hits from a meth pipe, and he could have a head coaching job tomorrow. Greg Schiano probably knew kids were being diddled and Tennessee still tried to hire him.

    I'd rather Leavitt had stayed because after Pillows Pellum and that fatass Hoke he seemed like a genius. But if he was a genius he would have taken a few more years of his contract and retired to spend his time getting Pepsi enemas from his gold digger wife. Maybe use the talent that Heyward/Dennison/Williams brought in and put out a great defense and then maybe Miami of Ohio or someone could hire him as a head coach.
    I pondered this overnight - and YKW.

    No...unfortunately you just don’t know how to read them. Like I said Oregon had a cupcake OOC schedule to boost their stats. Compare the conference schedule, which should be the only good comparison, they were ninth and tenth. Next time double check the source before you squeeze in for that circle jerk.
