    The only people really reporting it as a very serious probability that he is leaving is Canzano and his cronies. The rest of the nation acknowledges him as a candidate maybe even the favortite but doubts he is going to leave.

    A lot of the local vibe has been Willies lack of commentary about it... prior today it wasn’t even an available job. By the time he spoke today he likely hadn’t even received any kind of offer.

    I'd bet Willie is workin' for the Ducks right this moment..focused on propping up the roster...I'm not a huge Duck fan but I like Willie in Eugene...Helfrich is an easy act to follow

    Yeah the clashing play styles with Kiffin would be a big question mark, but he's smart enough to tailor offenses to the strength of the team he is on. Also, his stint at USC had its ups.. he got there at a bad time with the two year bowl ban, loss of scholarships, and all those JR/SR players getting penalty free transfers.

    The only difference between your obsessive qualities and my obsessive qualities is that you collect shoes and I collect vinyl. But keep jumping up and down on that couch, Mr Cruise.

    Hopefully, that is what this is about. He wants bigger salary on his extension, and yeh they better give it to him. Right now.

    Personally, I don't take a job and then leave a year later. That's just me though.

    Really? Why on earth not? If I was a vp for some shoe company based across the country, and Nike offered me the same position in my home state for more money, a chance for my familyto be close to home and a more high profile job, I'd jump. Most anyone would

    I'm sure there a thousands of fans who have invested their hope in your employment decisions. Etiquette is not cheating on your girlfriend or wife because a pretty girl shows interest, even if that is what you want to do and even if she is your dream girl.

    I guess you better hope that you're going to stay at the next job for a long time, because short hopping from job to job makes you look unreliable and disloyal.
