Let's Just Take Miami's Money and Move on.
Wasn't Wilcox leading the Boise State defense that took several cheap shots at Oregon players and injured Jeremiah Masoli, forcing him from the game?

Let's Just Take Miami's Money and Move on.
Peterson still works within the UW athletic dept. If he wanted back into coaching all he needed to do was say the word and the Huskies would have hired him in an instant. I would bet good money that UW asked him if he was interested.

Player's Dad just Confirmed Cristobal leaving
Don't know how to embed tweets so I just copied and pasted. Bottom line is we still don't know the decision, probably because it hasn't been made. Manny Diaz, in past 2 hours, has canceled today's trip to California for an in-home visit with an OL prospect, per Canesport's Matt Shodell. Staff had been recruiting this AM and early afternoon. Diaz awaiting word on his employment status while UM awaits the go-ahead from Mario. Chance Hudson @Coach__Chance · 17m Let me say I haven’t been told anything. Jus sending my appreciation to the family giving my support to whatever they decide. I hope he stays in which he’s gona be pissed at me for sending this early.

If Mario Does Leave, What Should The Fans Do?
I don't get the "hire Chris Petersen" line of thinking. He spurned Oregon once because UW was the job he wanted and was willing to wait. Two years ago he stepped down because coaching lost its allure. He still works at Washington and I'm certain he was asked if we wanted to return to coaching during their recent search. He could have written his own ticket. Why would he come to Oregon?

Mario and Miami appear to be Close to a Deal

For a visit.- It's Official: Akron Hires Moorhead....Jo No Mo.
Musgrave has roughly a dozen employers since 1997, his career path is promotion then demotion and nobody has thought he is HC material. Not sure if any of his NFL stops resulted exceptional results and the offense at Cal is pedestrian. He was great as a Duck QB but hasn't shown anything to make me want him on staff. We need an upgrade.- MC to Miami

Another voice that wonders if there is an over emphasis on power and mass rather than flexibility. That was a point of emphasis with Jim Radcliff.- Ducks Must Start Ty Thompson in Bowl Game or Forfeit
Or perhaps he did and just didn't care, or worse. I haven't seen anything positive from him regarding UO or Eugene. I saw an interview, probably pre-season, where he was asked about living in Eugene and he struggled before finally giving a lukewarm answer. Was the performance last night a proverbial middle finger?- Great news!
Rather obvious he didn't enjoy his time in Eugene. "My family and I are very excited for this opportunity," Moorhead said in a statement. "We can't wait to get back to a region of the country we consider home...- Great news!
Long rumored, now confirmed. His performance last night was pathetic. Akron: Oregon offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead is expected to accept the head coaching position at Akron today sources have shared with FootballScoop. Pete Thamel has tweeted the same.- Moorhead Leaving: Pundits Seeing What We Have Been Discussing...
Couldn't agree more. Former player I believe, very knowledgeable.- Moorhead Leaving: Pundits Seeing What We Have Been Discussing...
I'm not sure what Sports Pac12 is but, after reading this opinion piece and rooking at their recruiter rankings posted in another thread, it seems more like a click bait site than a legitimate news operation. Andy Avalos as OC is probably a typo that wasn't proofed. They dismiss that of the three coordinators who left two got head coaching jobs. They decry the Akron job as a big step down (it is) but ignore that that at Miss State the local paper reported "His tenure was also marred by scandal". Isn't a lower level job is a path to rehabbing your reputation? As for the Akron salary I believe JM still has at least another years pay from Mississippi so his income won't be affected at all. Sorry, not impressed.- Best Pac-12 Assistant Coaches at Recruiting
The acclaimed Donte Williams, located in a recruiting hotbed, is only number 12, just ahead of Andy Ludwig. Which is wrong, the ranking list or Williams reputation?- Mike West: "I Saw Improvement from Cristobal this Year"
Cristobal quote from a 247 article. Seems to have worked for all involved. “We didn’t run him all year because we thought it was the right thing to do,” Cristobal said. “He came back as a senior and we didn’t want him running around and getting banged up, we wanted to keep him upright for the whole season. But if we got into championship play he was gonna run it, and he did against two unbelievable defenses. He showed his athleticism, his wiggle, his shake, his explosiveness, aside from all the other attributes he has as a quarterback.”- Oh Crap! Donte Williams to Washington?
He will probably be unemployed soon so I see this as just covering his bases. It would help to know how many other accounts he started following recently. Although he will be effective wherever he lands I have reservations after hearing a rumor he glossed over vetting Luke Hill, who was subsequently arrested for attempted murder.- Youth Everywhere!
When the season started we all knew the team was young. Looking around this site I found Chili Duck's superb depth chart I was stunned to see after injuries we went into the Oregon State contest with only three seniors starting. Less than half the starters are upperclassmen. While the performance on the field is sometimes erratic the future is bright.- Per ESPN, Riley Scoop "This will be the Mecca of College Football."
My thoughts exactly. Roughly 70% of OU's roster is from Texas or Oklahoma where football is a way of life. Completely different story for kids from the LA area. Also it is reported that Oklahoma was blindsided by his departure, that they had no idea he was negotiating with USC. To me that is sinking into Slick Willie territory.- Per ESPN, Riley Scoop "This will be the Mecca of College Football."

The unknown question is his health. . He spent 5 years years at Akron and he may view it as lower stress.- Lincoln Riley to USC ??!!
Deep pockets at USC, a private school so contract records are sketchy. Clay Helton's buyout was reported at roughly $10 million, offset by a $700,000 annually from Georgia Southern. Todd Orlando's buyout is unknown but he was making $1.7 million at Texas. Figure at least $10 million for the staff. Lincoln Riley made $7.5 million at OU--you know he got a raise. $25 million buyout to Oklahoma. Alex Grinch got $1.4 million at OU, another salary increase plus a buyout to move to LA. $45-50 million in buyouts, figure another $15-20 million annually for Riley and staff. What are the odds that well heeled boosters will think they have a say in how the football program is run?- Apple Cup
Just looked it up. UW is ranked 109 in rushing defense at 192 YPG. Looked a bit further and found Stanford at 127 (241 YPG)! https://www.ncaa.com/stats/football/fbs/current/team/24/p3 - Interesting Remarks from Recruit Cyrus Moss
