The 9 mil buyout would be insane for an OC. 

That would be a high buyout but does it go down after Jan 15? Chip was on the hot seat, maybe UCLA is willing to let him walk and bring on Aranda.

Maybe just maybe this is isn't for the HC job? Chip comes in as the OC and a HC is announced soon after? One can dream.

Oregon should go all out in for Aranda. He’s a defensive guy and our roster is set up to win with defense thanks to MC’s recruiting (Hopefully they stay). I like Chris Peterson as a plan B because he would bring much needed experience to Eugene. The issue has been the offense which can be fixed with the right hire and I think that position should be filled with Sac States

 

Troy Taylor who just lead the Hornets to their second consecutive winning record and a place in the big sky championship game (they lost to South Dakota state). He has experience as OC of the Utes in 2017-2018 and that is his strength, play calling. The hornets finished 9th in total offense this past year. Taylor has ties in Nor Cal and Washington which would also help with Recruiting.
