That sai Jonathan Smith would have to make more sense for OSU. Or Rocky Long. I’m sure he will. Joe Salave’a makes more sense right now. Asst Head Coach experience. If the Beavs go for an asst. an offensive coordinator makes more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clpp01 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Long is creeping up on 70, Doesnt make much sense for Oregon State to hire him to rebuild if he (likely) won't be there to see his first recruiting classes graduate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Jesus. This does not bode well for potential hires if a guy said "$2.5 mill a year to stay here? No thanks, I'm out." Can't tell if this is pride (not wanting to wait to be fired) or just frustration and misery. This is a decision he may soon regret. Nobody comes out smelling like perfume.

The other thing you have to remember is UO just gave Leavitt $1.15mil a year. Grinch will be offered somewhere in the same neighborhood by a school either in the confrence or someone like Texas A&M, if he's not offered a HC job, and I doubt WSU can compete.

KUGRDON Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I know he will leave. I’ve been around awhile. I think he will probably have to have a little more success and I dont think he will need to expose himself to a program as bad as OSU is now when he does leave. I would think he moves up the DC ladder, and that could happen anytime now, before he goes head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueDuck Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I'm not saying he'd take OSU. At this point OSU is in real danger of reverting back to what it was before Riley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think many coaches would leave that money on the table. I don't know if he has any personal issues that impacted his decision, I hope it all works out for him. Liked the comment in the comments section about the Beavers being unique by going back to the triple option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickydlck Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Reading one of the articles, it sounded like Andersen a blame it on everyone/everything else kind of guy. Admissions too hard at Wisc, no locker room remodel at OSU. Kind of surprised by it. Maybe that's just the press bent on it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakedmolerat Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Look man, no one is so noble to walk from $12million guaranteed. I don't buy that as far as I can throw it. My thoughts are twofold, either: He was going to be forced to fire one of if not most of his assistants, and didn't want to face that decision, or The rumors of impropriety with the staff and coeds had legitimate teeth and he is saving his family values face. I don't believe he hated coaching at OSU or losing to the tune of $12 million. I just don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe he hated coaching at OSU or losing to the tune of $12 million. I just don't. I agree with this. There had to be some sort of personal issue, or something else that may or may not come to light later. Perhaps we'll see. Sure, it's tough at OSU. Not the best facilities, but also not the worst. They've invested more than in Pullman. They've been able to draw recruits on par with past years under Riley. There is a recent history of some success. More than half the time over the past 18 years the team has gone to bowl games. This isn't Cal Bakersfield for crissakes. Maybe 3 ADs in 3 years was too much? Dunno. It's mystifying, for sure.

Scscsc89 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I’ve read a few articles that place the blame on Andersen’s coaching staff. If they’re so bad, I’d think you’d blame the guy who was in charge of hiring/managing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
