I found watching and listening to Mario's meeting in Miami very tough. His speech starts at about the 8 minute mark. I'm happy for him and his loved ones, but I wonder if his heart was sold out 100% to the U...of Oregon.

When Wallace threw the towel in the face of Sabonis during the playoffs on national TV, I was done.

If you can get a proven winner without the drama, then why settle for anything less? Here's Mullen's perspective.

Miami has a decommit, as well. Sports is just another version of a soap opera.

Miami U has no halo, either.

^^^^^^Bingo!!!

Same news on BR site, but with a twist. He's in San Diego and he cancelled his Monday recruiting visits.

No way. I'd boo at Chip before I would Mario. Chip left Oregon with a sanction and was banned from CFB. I would not boo at Chip, just giving some perspective.

You were trying to update us on what you thought was news. No harm there. I have news from a very reliable source, though. The ENTIRE Husky Football team and staff are opting out of their bowl game this year.

But the part that seems true is IF he signs, he effectively fires Diaz? Otherwise, Diaz keeps his job? What planet am I on again?

I have family that travel to games. The championship early on a Friday each year isn't appealing at all knowing there is a bowl game. They attend the bowl games. I sit home anxiously watching for their selfies.

ONE red flag for me is would I want to join a bush-league organization that leaves the current HC looking like a worthless SOB? I know almost nothing about the U, but how an organization treats their employees is high on my checklist. It feels like "Willie Makes It 2, Return of the Floridian".

My take on Chris is all the noise fried his love of coaching. I honestly don't think he wants or needs to go back to that crap. If memory is correct he and Helf had a conversation on flight about it all right before he stepped away. Might have been a Canzano article. Does that ring a bell?

No worries. I often don't finish my thought to drive the point home clearly. Example Me: I don't like Escargot. Wife: What's your point?

The QBR was created by ESPN so things like garbage time aren't a part of the algorithm. But when garbage time starts the first series, there must be a minimum number ESPN hands out. 🧑‍🏫

I feel Oregon burned that bridge, not Mark.

If a top tier HC is worth 7.5 mil+, what's a top tier OC worth now?

Thoughts on poaching Bill Musgrave?

Ha! I just read he has been a 3rd and 4th string QB in Canada.

Thank you. I did forget that and know there were most likely other player differences, but I believe the QB play had the biggest impact in that game than any other position.

If MC is gone by then, it's a new dealer shuffling the deck. I think he stays, though.

I saw that, too.

I'm not sure how you drew that conclusion based on the info provided. With a good QB, the Ducks thrived. With a bad QB, the Ducks tanked -- like last night.

Agree. If this were a 3 game series, I would expect the same results.

Alamo Bowl 2015 Excluding OT With Vernon Adams: Ducks 31 - TCU 0 Without Vernon Adams: Ducks 0 - TCU 31 Same O, same D...different QB
