I'm not fully sure it's insane. I mean, listen I'm not a Babushka guy obviously - so that is what it is; but this isn't really different than Rocky Long or Bill Snyder. At these kind of schools, if you have a climber as a coach you are always going to be in flux. It wouldn't surprise me at all if this didn't turn out to be a good strategy for them.GrundleStiltzkin said:This is such a chincredibly chinsane fucktarded idea.
Get a guy that understands the job, knows the landscape and will do well and care. If I were Oregon State, I would be pretty interested in this type of hire. -
I just don't know if Uncle Denny has anything left in the tank.Dennis_DeYoung said:

He sure knows what it takes to move the ball downfield. -
Shit, Erickson is only 70? I thought the dude was creeping into his 90s at this point. But as much as I would love Erickson to drag Smith away, I don't really see why Babushka himself would go for it. Unless he sees the writing on the wall here, you're really looking at a substantial demotion with no actual guarantee of becoming OSU's HC any time soon.

What a cool day for Smiff, man

Let's hope his heart beats his head. -
It's great for us(?) no question. For OSU, I just don't get it. Denny's MO has been to come in, get a bunch of JC dirtbags, win some games quickly, then run out of gas. I don't see how combining the quick-fix with some kind of long-term heir apparent works. If Denny does what Denny does, the next guy has a big mess to clean up. If the AD keeps Denny on a leash, then what's the point of hiring him at all?Dennis_DeYoung said:

Pending Corvallis bar revenue boom.

How shitty does a program have to be to even consider something like this. And yet the Beavers really are that shitty.
-
If someone would have told me 3 days ago that Denny and Herm might be the conference's 2 newest 'splash' hires, I would have jumped off the top of the space needle.
This is something I could see going over well in the SEAC or American Conference. -

Would be great for us to get rid of Smith, but I suspect OSU prefers Beau Baldwin.UWhuskytskeet said: -

2) I’m sure Smith knows where he stands with Pete -

Possibility for Scott Barnes to become a candidate for the spot next to Pat Haden on our Mt. Rushmore?
-
Pete's got a solid system in place. It wouldn't be smart to remove one of the cogs from the wheel. The whole thing might come apart.
I stand with Smiff.

Can we start a go fund me page to make this happen?

They were shooting this idea around on the Beaver board (the OSU one) a few days ago.
For OSU, Smith mostly makes sense because if he's succesful, he'd likely be there to stay. Baldwin, if succesful, would jump to a better job as quickly as he could.
Smith and Erickson were also the leaders of the team for the microsecond that they were a good program. Makes sense for mostalgia's sake too. -

Step 1, Ericksen and Smiffy to OSU
Step 2? Trade OSU to Mtn West for Boise St. WDWTA -

All I know is that it would be sweet to see that crusty old fart beat Weird Willie. God that would be sweet.
-
I watched him ass rape the Ducks in the 2000 Civil War on Larry Scott's Innovative Network the other day and his single back offense would do pretty well in today's game. It's the same thing Auburn runs but out of shotgun. Buck, counter, power, power stretch. All you need is a Simonton and Jackson and that fucker is unstoppable.
It just beat Bama. -
