    Canzano thinks its greg schiano.

    I think that would be a good hire.

    Yeah, he isn't the sexy name but it's also hard to build a team like Rutgers into a contender within their conference.

    Bad decision to fire him in my opinion. But as a Beaver fan, I love it! He had them in the national championship game not long ago! He had a bunch of injuries and a very young team this year. He deserved one more year to prove himself.

    Lol we were only in the championship because of Mariota, and veteran playmakers on the defense.

    I'll kindly disagree. He can't recruit for shit. His game management sucked.

    You know, the more I think about Kiffin the more I'd be okay with it... he would bring in a stellar staff with him (Saban/Carroll coaching tree type hires). It would just all depend on his ability to not fuck up... it's the classic super high ceiling and super low floor.

    The problem with Helfrich was the slow deterioration of the winning culture. It started immediately after he took over though. The players clearly didn't fear/respect him. He's a super likable guy, but I think that was eventually his undoing. Mariota propped him up, and once MM left that was the beginning of the end.

    Why would he leave Ohio State for little Oregon?! You'd have to start at like 50 million per year to get him to even consider Oregon haha
