I was just going to post the first part of that.
This would be so fun and so good for the Pac-12. Thinking about it, I quickly realized that my Duck hate does in fact have room for growth.

You‘re assuming that he would have had offers. I sincerely doubt that.Nope. If FHCMM would have gotten that 1 extra win, he'd have gone 6-6, made a bowl, and bolted for a different HC job. The relationship between him and RG was at an end and MM had his agent shopping. The big difference is that instead of CU firing him & owing that huge contract settlement, another school would have been paying CU some buyout money.
I think he'd have gotten Ole Miss if he hadn't been coming off a losing season.You‘re assuming that he would have had offers. I sincerely doubt that.
Wasn't Ole Miss the year before?I think he'd have gotten Ole Miss if he hadn't been coming off a losing season.
I don't think so.Wasn't Ole Miss the year before?
Ole Miss was 2017. There was some mutual interest but there was no way Ole Miss could have sold him after the season he had in 17. MM had one foot out the door and sealed his own fate. Could have been a completely different story if he put together a 7 or 8 win season.Wasn't Ole Miss the year before?
Done deal, best of luck to him

I’n certain Brian Kelly’s agent is well aware of the market for his client’s services. If he wins there, he’ll get that 8 figure level ASAP.Brian Kelly might be.

It's the Golden Rule. He who has the gold makes the rules.My favorite part of this tweet is that there's 0 mention of Rob Mullens. It's entirely Phil Knight's call on coaching hires isn't it? lol
Just to spare you some suspense, you probably still have another week or so.Crickets from CU
I think we are looking at this the wrong way. It's better to be hopeful for an additional couple weeks, than to be disappointed in CU's inevitably trash hire.Crickets from CU
Im disappointed now.I think we are looking at this the wrong way. It's better to be hopeful for an additional couple weeks, than to be disappointed in CU's inevitably trash hire.

Fixed for accuracy.Just to spare you some suspense, you probably still have another month or so.

Wilcox to Oregon, with a big budget would be a good hire IMO. There's other hires that would instantly boost their recruiting profile for sure, but Oregon has recruited well enough to be dominant in our conference. I see Wilcox as the next Kyle W level coach but would have a much easier time recruiting to Oregon than Kyle does to Utah, and a much bigger budget to go with it.
Wilcox paired with a very competent OC will yield a team that can compete right away for top 10 level play and with that, recruiting will boost itself because...NIKE.
That's a big advantage that they have. Wilcox just needs to make the right hires and that thing could take off. He's good and there's no question marks there IMO.
