  1. Not to derail this thread and expanding on Charles' comment above.  

     

    The article referenced is from a content management service.  The service, Essentially Sports is owned   by Full Spectrum which is a digital product company based in India. Their primary business is Web and Application development and Digital Marketing.

     

    The author of the article is not one of the usual 'DUCKS beat' writers.   

     

    What these content services do is scour the web for articles, take them and put a spin on them that will cause people to click on them, hence they become 'click bait'.

     

    The net here is there are  things in the article for discussion but the author sensationalized it to get all of us to read it.

     

    I find myself looking at these articles and seeing who wrote them and if it's not one of the usual DUCK beat writers, I pass.

  2. This guy has done stuff like this before. Apparently, he thinks it's humorous, and has anyone seen any of his writing?  He claims to be a PNW football writer. I think this is a burner account for some other pathetic husky fan who just can't deal with his Oregon envy.

    Maybe a bit interesting that the Cowboy's RB coach is expected to be slotted at between $400,000 and $450,000.

     

    Tashard Choice is already making $700,000 at Texas and Samples I believe is set for a bump to $650,000 at Oregon if he stays.

     

    Certainly it isn't always about the $ as both coaches interviewed for the job with likely knowledge of what Jerry Jones and Dallas is going to be offering. Just more to where college football is at, the $ involved, and the continued blurring line between college and the NFL.

     

    All that said, I could very much see how coaches might tire of recruiting, NIL, the portal, having to work year around on roster retention, and the realities of player poaching. Life in the NFL, with its other non-monetary benefits, might be looking more and more appealing.

     

    But could working for Jerry be better than the things cited above?
