I'd go with 5 more years at best. He is 62.

I hope he wins a title or 2 in the next 6 years. Sloan will be ready unless Baker is still here. CBK needs both here to win said titles.

I think he is here to win multiple.
He's no Ed O

ETA: he’ll re-up his contract after the first natty for 4-5 years more

If he wins a championship he would be wise to retire and let the new generation take over. He’s already out of date IMO guys like sark Kirby kiffens heupel are in their prime

With all they’ve accomplished so far, I truly hope the best is behind them

I honestly think he coaches until about 70.

Then calls it quits

If he wins one with us, he will want another. If he has success, he will coach til 70ish.

I doubt he'd leave for another job at this point. It just all depends on how long he wants to coach.

He'll coach until he beats Saban's record of 7 National Championships.

So I give him 8 years max.

Let’s just hope he can win the season opener. He’s 0-2 so far at LSU.

A long time time, he is doing a great job winning 10 games per year.

2 years. Maybe 7. Possibly only 5 years. Could be 10 years

Assuming he maintains consistency at Oregon why would he ever want to come back south?

He’s playing in a big time conference now. He’s got the best facilities money can buy. He’s got the world’s biggest sports apparel company as his own personal bag man.

Short of being run out of Oregon I can’t foresee him leaving for another job.
