One final thought on the Ben Howland negotiation… I’m told my figures of Howland wanting $2 million annually plus $250,000 per assistant were exactly on the money. Oregon State just couldn’t fathom eating those numbers while also paying Craig Robinson to go away.
Looks like the dissenters and trolls were wrong again.
Weekend baseball thread.
No official word about this, but I have heard Howland isn’t the coach due to money.
Just want to make an observation about Bob D: He reminds me of the friend we all seem to have who at 40 or 50 and bringing in six figures, is still asking everyone in the car for gas money when he drives up to Portland. From here on out I declare Bob D “Gas Money Guy”. Let’s see if this sticks like Lucy and the football, Ranker, Biley, and all the other great AB slogans/nicknames/observations.
By the way, if you’re asking for gas money after high school your friends hate you–consider this a public service announcement.
I’ve been away for a few days, and I come home to hear DS is the leading candidate to be the new coach?
This sounds a lot like the CR hire…a smooth talker who can (probably) recruit, but not proven as a coach or a guy who can run a program.
I mean, it is intriguing (so was CR), but the Beavs need a proven coach.
I’d rather see David Grace, even with his CR associations, over DS. This just sounds too familiar.
