    Considering he is currently unemployed with no job openings left, I would say yes.

    Also, if his name comes up to some boosters, I am sure some extra money will start coming out.

    I just don't want OS to overpay another coach, and then have the taxpayers of Oregon pay to set that guy up for life after he fizzles out, too.

    Phil Knight has been audited many many times.

    In their defense, Craig was pretty well set up for life from his wall street days.

    I just think what he did at Northern Arizona and Pittsburgh speaks volumes of him being more than just a product of UCLA recruiting.

    Then he should have insisted that he didn't need 10 years of PERS eligibility that he'll now get for the rest of his life. I forgot, though. He's one of the good 1%, along with Steyer, Zuckerberg, etc. etc.
