It seems

At this point I'd be very surprised if Tosh Lupoi remained on staff. Not sure he ends up at #USC either. Will be interesting.

That's cool, but we have a D-Line coach. You all seem to forget we aren't looking for any coaches.

He's a liability.

Yes sir, I agree. But he isn't going anywhere unfortunately.

Golden's view of stability is going to cost him. All for stability as we haven't had it in a while but the fact that Jethro still has a job is beyond concerning. Stability is only good when coaches are earning their paycheck. It feels that Jethro loses more key recruits than any other coach on staff and his on the field performance speaks volume for itself
 
Apparently the guy is a dirty recruiter which is why Haden and the USC admin are reluctant to sign off on him.

He's a snake too. He left the school he played for (Cal) last minute a few years ago for Washington and pretty much destroyed their class.

Just give me Kevin Patrick

Lol tosh is not a snake. Cal didn't want to give him the money he wanted, Udub and sark did. Simple as that. Look at cal now lol.

As far as him being "dirty". What do you mean?

I think Lupoi stays on the west coast regardless of USC buying his contract out or not.

Lupoi screwed the Cal program and an unsuspecting Coach Tedford in 2012. Tedford trusted him and being an "old school" coach he was slow to understand social media's role in recruiting. He left it to Lupoi.

In the middle of recruiting season Lupoi, a Cal Alum, took a HUGE salary bump to go to UW. He also took all his recruiting contacts and they ended up with him or elsewhere. Tedford never recovered and soon lost his job. Look at Cal now as the spiral has gotten worse.

You can argue that Lupoi did what the system allowed but if you were a HC anywhere would you trust him?

So what do you expect the guy to do. Take 150,000-200,000 dollars less because it's the "honorable" thing do? Surely you can't be serious. Tosh knew what he was worth and so did the guys at Udub. Tedford should've figured out something, EVEN if it was having one of the boosters pay Tosh the difference off the books in cash.

Like you said, look at cal now. 1 WIN. 1. And Can't get the same type of recruits anymore. That 2012 class cal would've had if Tosh would've stayed..... Shaq Thompson, Arik Armstead, Jordan Payton, Aziz ****tu,Ellis McCarthy, know Eddie Goldman was going to visit, etc.....
 
I'd take him in a heartbeat. You find a place on your staff for a guy like this.

But, given what happened at Cal, no way Golden even entertains the thought.

there is no way for anyone to know that for sure. everyone is just assuming at this point and acting as if Golden is running the program into the ground for some reason. Wait until after the bowl game at least and if their isn't a coaching change or an announcement about defense scheme changes, then by all means, continue to ***** and moan. At least then it'll be warranted
