    I'm still trying to figure out how in the hell did Helfrich fuck it up this badly this fast

    It was not fast. He coached a shitty game in the championship against Ohio State. Since then he has made stupid and confounding decisions in most games. He is a bad hire. The deal is that he had really good players, who he did not recruit except for MM, and they made up for his horrible coaching. He does not know what he is doing and never has.

    When they lost by five touchdowns to an 8-5/4-5 qb-less Arizona Wildcat team in 2013, I knew for sure Helfrich wasn't the guy. I also knew he would ride the talent and Chimp's system for a couple of years.
    Didn't expect them to drop off this far, this fast.
    ..but I'm more than fine with it...

    This part I like.

    After watching every game Chip coached at Oregon I can honestly say, the moment I knew Helfrich was shit was week 3 in 2013 during a 59-14 beat down of Tennessee.

    Success is about the little things. I noticed right then and there that Helfrich lacked the attention to detail necessary to be successful at a school like Oregon. The procedure penalties, the cute play calling, these were well prevalent at that point.

    Chip was a guy who knew he was smarter than you, so he didn't try to prove it to you. He trusted his system, and stuck to his game plan. He always made you adjust to him. I miss the days when we could have a 6 play drive but run the same play 5 of those times and still stick it right down your throat.

    We? currently have a coach that wants it to be his system, and wants to prove to people how smart he is when in fact he isn't. Now we're the team with no identity that has to make in game adjustments to teams we used to be able to beat down with our three deep units.

    Helfrich was successful because he had players in the system that learned from Chip what it took to win, and had the discipline necessary. The current roster he has "developed" doesn't have that foundation. In essence, this is the first year of it being Helfrich's team, and this is what you have.

    Sounds like no one was harder on Helfrich than you.

    I know you want to hit the panic button, but the most important thing right now is coaching continuity...
