Oregon is the constant to success, the coaches are the variable that fail elsewhere

Oregon has gone through 4 coaches over the last 20 years and they have all had success. Yet, when 3 of the 4 leave they go elsewhere they fail
Chip-failed
Tagget-failed
Mario-jury still out put it ain’t pretty
Seems like a huge risk considering everyone else has done well before lanning and not looked great after leaving

I'm assuming you're referring to Willie and if thats the case then you mean Willie Taggart not Willie Fritz. Fritz never coached at Oregon

I think he is talking about helfrich.
Don't know why it says fritz.

Thats what I thought at first too but Helfrich ended up getting fired from Oregon and never took a another HC job so I assumed that wasn't who he was referring to

I don't understand why any coach at a championship caliber program would move to another program. Success at one program is no guarantee of success at another. When everything is working consistency is the key to building a championship.

Oregon was always going to have success in a weak PAC-12. I think they’re in for a bit of a rude awakening when they start having to play defenses with a pulse.
If Lanning is the guy in Bama, I doubt he’s successful there. I don’t think there is a coach in the country that will come in and have success immediately following Saban. The pressure is too high. Whoever the guy is after this next hire will be the one that will have success imo.

I think that's where you are wrong... I think they will have success EARLY and then fail. The roster is still loaded. They 24 and 25 classes will still be legit. It will be 2026 recruiting that really seals it.
This isn't like FSU after Bowden or Fisher, the cupboard isn't bare.

Sounds LSU minus Saban….I like it 

Posted on 1/11/24 at 8:31 am to lsupride87
Playing against a Pac 12 schedule had a large part to do with that success

I don’t know a whole lot about Lanning. He’s been around some great coaches.
I’d prefer Kiffin right now. Bold dude who should bring an amazing offense to Tuscaloosa. I’m cool with giving that route a real shot. Rather try that and it fizzle out than hire a sorta Saban clone that is decent but never anything good enough to compete for titles.
Alabama can go get a program builder/sustainer in 7 years. Right now they need a crazy person to come in a try to win a championship out the gates with this talent. Someone the kids will immediately gravitate towards.

I wonder if Kiffin didn't ruffle one too many feathers during his stint in Tuscaloosa and after leaving.
