I partially agree but I also don’t think that’s an entirely fair context. I think we made an effort to get people Oregon didn’t have including Joe Brady, Charlie Partridge and Seider.
Raymond was a miss. I think we were late to that party but
@Cribby would know. TRob is an upgrade to his Oregon Staff. Mirabal is one of the top guys at his position as is McClendon so I don’t know why you would complain about those guys as they are also from his Oregon staff
As I understand it, with his kids in school, Seider wasn’t leaving Penn State without a co-OC title. UiF tried as well. I didnt love the Mastro hire but
@Brooklyndee says he’s a good hire and he turned down the OC job at Nevada.
We talked to Partridge. Again I’ll defer to Cribby but I’m pretty sure he wanted a title we couldn’t give. Salave’a is considered one of the better DL coaches out there and we got him. So what if he was at Oregon.
Oregon did not have the Coordinators we are rumored to be getting. If Schumann and Briles happen, that’s a huge upgrade over what was at Oregon in terms of splash and how I think they’ll do here vs if we had the Oregon DC and OC. I’d love to have Lashlee but he got a HC job. Joe Brady is staying in the NFL.
It seems to me that we got the better guys off of Oregon’s staff - all an upgrade over what we had - and we’re adding some in demand coordinators. These guys don’t grow on trees. We’re still subject to what’s out there and who is willing to make a lateral move.
