That game did help us excise one of the main tumors. Helfrick is going to sink or swim the next two seasons.

Pretty much.

Frost was a leftover from Chip. Speaking of Chip being gay, how about this scenario: Oregon needs a WR coach. So, Chip hires a guy who played defense in the NFL, has only coached defense, and was the D-coordinator at a small college. Oh, and he's one of the best looking coaches in history (no homo). The two of them also went a long trip to Spain together with no one else on the coaching staff during the summer. Yeah, not gay at all.

Slingblade hired Don Pellum over Dave Aranda and Todd Orlando. So, he passed up two of the best young DC's in the business for arguably the worst DC in major college football over the last five years. Obviously I'm not confident in his hiring of Hoke. It seems like an attempt at a poor man's Ed O.

Lubick did a tremendous job improving the inept passing game schematically Frost had put together. Promoting Lubick to be a first time coordinator and hiring Yost who is one of the best OC's of the 2000's seems odd, especially since Yost is the QB Coach. You can probably count on one finger the number of Power 5 OC's that aren't QB coaches.

I thought Slingblade was a terrible hire initially but I got why they hired him. I knew he was a terrible coach after the ass raping in Tucson. This Alamo Bowl meltdown was historically shitty. Yes, Pellum got moved but Slingblade hired him to begin with.

Oregon is a middle tier program with its free agent QB's and sieve defense until proven otherwise. By the end of year two there weren't two guys in the program that could snap the ball to the QB or throw a five yard slant? Pretty fucking pathetic.

Mosster, come on man...

That Alamo was embarrassing on many levels. It was the only time in 25 years of following this team, I laughed when they lost. I actually started to root for TCU late in the 3rd quarter when they showed a shot of Pellum on the sideline. I realized then, a loss like that would send him packing. By mid 4th quarter though, I realized after the 47th ground ball snapped by our backup center, that if this coaching staff can't even get our 2nd string center to shot gun snap the ball or go under center, then how can I expect them to actually hire a decent coordinator. I realized, it was over.

I opened up the scotch cabinet, poured a 12 year Glendronach, and watched in cynical laughter, as the final 8 minutes and overtime confirmed my observations.

Oregon football was diagnosed with terminal cancer on January 16th, 2013. It officially died on January 2nd, 2016.

I'm an oregon fan and haven't thought that many words about the game since it ended.


Someone else beat Oregon, nothing else matters. Again.

If you can't see an Oregon fan wrote those words then I can't help you.
