lmao, this is just, just amazing, A+ effort (effort?) on that comment.creepycoug said:
And, Taggart had been a coach at USF. That's a lot closer to coaching in the Pac 12 than FIU. And we both know that these ADs get sucked in to the "who's hot" crap like a teenage girl, and Taggart was a relatively sought-after coach at the time.CuntWaffle said:Why didn’t they just hire Mario before Taggart then?
My [semi-serious] poont is, who ever really knows about this. I have heard good things about Cristobal for a long time, but that means next to nothing. I just always try and remember with these things how lucky the Trojans got with Pete ... how, despite themselves, he fell into their laps. He was an also-ran failure in the NFL, which of course is more significant than anything Cristobal has to offer, but at the same time NFL coaches flail and fail in the college game all the time.
My theory, as stupid as it sounds, is that I have no theory. If there is anything good about the guy, you cross your fingers and hope, and that's about all you can ever do. What convinced me of that more than anything wasn't so much that the random guy comes in and is successful, but rather, that superstar coach who left to go somewhere else who couldn't bring the magic. That's why I like Meyer so much. He's one of the few who has been able to do it consistently.
I know Race used to subscribe to the Jim Tressel theory, formerly known as the Don James theory: super successful head coach at a mid-major or worse program who steps up to the big time with big time resources. I used to buy that one too, until I didn't.
im literally creating fake accounts to chincredible this more.

If I really cared about winning I’d take a chance on Norvell.creepycoug said:
Maybe. But I've heard nothing about him as a recruiter, which I think is crucial at Oregon and which the Ducks are doubling down for ... not just this class but overall. You could hear it from Mullens n that presser that the local area blah blah blah would be nice but they want that recruiter, and I don't blame them because to me that's the name of the game. Leave the whole "stability, wants to be here" bs for fs Canzano and Washington fans who are smugging it up because they tripped into a coach who's done moving around. I think Mullens is smart af to not be reactive and knee-jerk into someone like Wilcox because "he's an Oregon guy and will be here for life ... " That's just so fs and so hokie dokie anyway. Who cares? Harbaugh is a Michigan guy and wants to be there for life too. (btw, I'll admit I thought he was going to kill it there too. See my prior post on rolling the dice).haie said:Norvell.
The Autzen Peapatch is going to be top dollar though.
Ask yourself, would you, or would the Ducks, trade the Kelly era for a less successful but more "stable" guy who stuck around? Of course not. You take the winning while it's there and if the guy leaves you move on and hire someone else.
I don't know what Autzen Peapatch means.
He was the reason ASU got to the conf championship. He could beat much more talented teams with Memphis. Went toe to toe with a superior team in the championship. A real offensive mind; not the sark kind. With even an average d coordinator Oregon could be a really dangerous team.
Oregon is not doing anything without stellar coaching, even with a good recruiting class. -
Nobody really ever does. I'm not in a position to dispute Norvell. We'll see what happens. I'm sure the Ducks could have pulled him in; all I can say is that if they guy doesn't have a record as a recruiter then I don't really blame them for rolling the dice on a guy who does.haie said:

Also, you're not at all saying that Oregon doesn't really care about winning are you? You know as well as anyone that they're committed to the fb program. -
Norvell wasn't coming 48 hours after inking an extension in Memphis.haie said:Norvell.

If that's really true then that's more damning about Oregon than anything I could have imagined.IPukeOregonGrellow said:

My perception is they care about being respectable and not going into a UW type vortex of embarrassment.creepycoug said:

But controlling the conference? With this hire? -
Yeah, I'm a meth head, porking lot attending Duck who doesn't believe in red flags, and that's a red flag for me.dnc said:

So Taggart was successful?creepycoug said:A couple things, since we all know Creepy is a closet Quook:
If he's successful and leaves, it means he was successful. If not, you have to fire him
