There is the old saying "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice...". Slick Willie was the original sin. The guy was a hustler and Mullens fell for his scam, as did many Duck faithful. He rode that con to a huge payday with FSU. That's on Willie.
Then came MC. He sold the players and they wrote the letter. I don't know that MC's game was an actual con. MC, I think, believes himself to be something he is not. He is dam good at selling others on the idea and vision, but Mario has no idea how to bring great football to fruition on the field at game time. I have said that Oregon won on raw talent despite MC's inept game day coaching.
My first thoughts of "Uh oh" came with the first time-out of Marios first game on the sideline. My brother (huge fusky fan) and I talked about Marios coaching abilities from that point on. He knew and I knew, I just wasn't going to let him know I knew. And Fusky had Peterson, dang it! He loved watching me squirm at the thought.
Now we have Lanning. Time will tell if we are being duped a third time. A lot of the same writing on the wall. But this time it feels different. Lanning seems genuine. He doesn't have the HC experience SWT and MC had. He does however, have a resume that boasts actual leadership of a unit to unparalleled heights, as does his OC. Something both previous coaches lacked.
I have fully bought into Lanning and his vision. Something I never did with with MC or Slick Willie. I love the vision of the Oregon Ducks new youth movement. One day I hope to congratulate PK and RM. This could bring Mullens to being considered one of the greatest AD's in College Football. Going to be a heck of a ride the next couple years.
I wanted what M C appeared to originally be offering. I was excited, until I witnessed a couple of his first games. Since then, I’ve been waiting for M C’s departure. IMO, M C promised what he had no intention of delivering. With Dan Lanning, I know ( as much as this is possible) Oregon Football is once again destined for happy & healthy: exciting Team Play

M C, for all his admirable attributes, was a near disaster for Oregon Football. I am delighted with Dan Lanning’s potential-:)

I'm feeling like Oregon Football is about to take off! I'm sensing a cooperative responsibility that translates to winning with team passion, grace & respect. TEAM:-)
Think of your favorite amusement park ride! Imagine getting to ride often---better & better-----with style. It's gonna get good around here!

painful, true, ad infinitum.

Seems like Husky star running back, Hugh McElhaney, received “untoward” compensation during his football activities at UW—-back in the dark ages.

Another unnecessary risk to go with a weak coaching performance----again! This stuff is getting difficult to observe, seemingly, ad infinitum---

There must be numerous high school FB coaches in the state of Oregon with superior game management skills. It’s appalling how regularly MC is easily out coached. Game after game. How frustrating it must be for many of the players. Extraordinary talent & facilities—-boring results! I’ve been watching Ducks football since the days of George Shaw. We seem to have an “albatross” running the show——
