Is Taggart leaving?

Norvell just signed a contract extension with Memphis.

Sumlin seems to be the best bet IMO.  If he can keep QBs in Eugene, that would be a plus.

You've been here long enough to know how this works.  An extension won't stop the Ducks from signing Norvell if they want him.  Memphis still isn't paying him anything close to what Oregon would.  He's a longshot candidate anyhow.

So you're Sumlin or bust?  Any other candidates you like? 

I think Mike Norvell and his misdirection offense would be really fun in Eugene. 

 

sumlin or bust based on the other names being brought up. if jeff brohm's name suddenly gets thrown around, i'd love for it to be brohm. he made purdue fun again -- that's like splitting the red sea.

i'm sure there are other coaches i'm simply overlooking that a search firm would find.

Yeah, Neuheisel was floating his name around the OSU job. There are plenty of recyclables out there.

I'm guessing Sumlin or Bryan Harsin, although Matt Campbell is an intriguing idea.

Campbell has a 9 million dollar buyout. Not saying that is a deterrent, but probably is a consideration. There is always Dino babers

that 10 part twitter thread by fentress was actually pretty good. several good points.

I fully expect him to fired soon for his comments to that porn star over the weekend.  He tried to delete if and then she reposted it.

I don't think UO plans to offer him anyway, but my morbid curiosity compels me to ask you why you think Leavitt would be crazy to stay in Eugene?

The only thing crazy would be turning down the 2mill  year they are going to pay him.

Jeff Tedford to Oregon! Book it!

In all seriousness, none of those options look very good.  I would take Tedford over any of those guys. 

He missed the two at the top, Sumlin and Wilcox, who I've been told reached out to UO.  Leavitt interviewed last night, and really wants the job but I don' know if he'll get it.

Wait, Wilcox is in the top two!?  I've been told my two different posters on this site that he isn't a legitimate candidate.   What happened?

If Leavitt joins Taggart at FSU, that's a national championship caliber coaching staff at FSU.  Leavitt recruits GA and FL pretty hard (from his CU days) and he might still be holding out for the Kansas State job or maybe even the CU job if MacIntyre leaves after next season.  If he had more west coast ties (outside of his stint with the 49ers), it would make sense for him to stay in Eugene.  If I was in Leavitt's shoes, I'd head for Florida too.

Why coach on the west coast far away from the recruiting areas that you are quite familiar with?
