    Look at Texas A&M - what's the likelihood Jimbo is going to deliver the results they are looking for at $7.5 million x 10 years? There's no lock that that guy is going to win a SEC title. Georgia went the coordinator route and is in the fucking playoff. Miami went the retread route and got damn near the playoff.
    Jimbo has a recent title going for him. There's that. And the fact that he wasn't run out of town as a head coach like Cristobal was. I'd be happy if I were Texas A&M. Obviously they want to win titles and are willing to pay the money necessary to give themselves a shot, unlike Oregon.

    Jumbo was a career coordinator and position coach before FSU hired him. Then he won a title. That's how that played out. He'll likely never win another one.

    The only person in football who didn't think FIU was fs for firing Cristobal was the guy who did it, and even he probably figured it out eventually.

    I like to spend other people's money for them. I like to do that. - OBK/doogie

    Part of the deal is that Knight doesn't want to put the UO program into a deficit hole they can't climb out of. It's part of the reason the north side of the stadium hasn't been done yet. The new basketball arena was on life support before Altman got the program hopping again.

    You can't pay 105,000 seat salaries with a 60,000 seat stadium. The athletics endowment gives UO more cushion and margin for error than most but you don't spend money just because you have it.

    Between ridiculous stadium expansion and crazy salary for Jimbo, AnM could actually be looking at #stadiumdefault even if Fisher does reasonably well. Their AD was subsidized by the academic side as recently as 2014. Fortunately for AnM, they don't really care all that much about the academic side of the university so they will probably just shovel cash from their oil endowment into the AD like OBK wants Oregon to do.

    Other than Mike Norvell, there were no good, realistic candidates out there this year. And who knows, maybe Norvell hates Oregon.

    Krystal Gayle either succeeds or he doesn't. If not, we fire up the machine in a couple of years with enough time to line up a good set of candidates in a year when Oregon has more than 50 or so kids on scholarship (thanks Mark!).

    Yes, you do. You do spend money just because you have it. It's an advantage Knight and Oregon aren't putting to good enough use. Why drop half a billion (allegedly) on some stupid science center when you can drop half a billion on the football program and buy your way to a national championship...

    Lol

    So you have figured out how to use the Internet to get here and post word vomit, but you still don't know about the Google. I could have a field day with this one, but it's starting to feel a lot like smacking krisvashon around for sport. It just didn't feel good at some point.

    Coachella actually means "Greatest Collection of Losers in America at Worst Music Festival Ever where a Nuclear Bomb Detonation Would Improve All Humanity." Loose translation of course.

    Disagree, Corvallis would be a better choice.

    put another way, If Phil Knight cared as much as Oregon fans wished he did, he could park five tenths of one percent of his wealth into about one third of the new Portland School District muni Bond issue and pay $10 million/ year for Real Coach’s salary with the Tax Free Income he’ll be earning Guaranteed by the Full Faith and Credit of the Portland taxpayer.

    Wouldn’t cost Knight a fucking dime.

    Or he could just do nothing like he's doing now, be cheap and hire unproven assistants (Helfrich) or assistants with bad head coaching records (Cristobal). It's enough to satisfy low expectation Ducks like ArizonaDuck, NTXDuck, PDXDuck and most of the rest of Quook Nation. Making a bowel game this year was a huge fucking win for these guys.
