    It's a shame really. Would have liked to have seen him signed to an extension.

    I love my Ducks but I'm expecting them to do something lame like bring Bellotti back.

    I was afraid this would happen. Oregon's only draw was that they were winners.....

    Some insider on the Oregon 247 board that has been right about stuff in the past says Chip is coming back.

    I have been beating the fire Helfrich drum since last year, but I still have to feel kind of sad for the guy being a fellow Southern Oregonian, there was a bit of pride there seeing one of us in that position.

    I loved Chip when he was HC but I don't want him back. He's not a great recruiter.

    If he wants to come back I'd certainly take him back, but right now I'd rather they went after someone like PJ Fleck. Lane Kiffin is also being beaten around and would be hilarious in a dumpster fire kind of way.

    I want Pj Fleck. Big time motivator, young, and looks like he can turn teams around.

    Problem is he is young and if has major success... we will be in the same place as when Chip left. I like him a lot but I'd prefer someone who is established and looking to stay long term.

    Good ol Joey Freshwater lol

    He is a good recruiter and he has been learning under Satan himself so a comeback could be in the making. I doubt it's us who make that call but someone will.

    Another name to consider would be Josh McDaniels.
