Good Interview with Bob D

68

Link here.

What I don’t understand is if he really believes that a Rose Bowl is the “expectation”, or if he is playing lip service to the folks at angrybeavs? The evidence points to the latter, since he rewards Riley with a contract extension for any bowl. So how exactly is the Rose Bowl the expectation? Where is the evidence of that.

Also, he declines to talk about Robinson and says they should have made the NIT. Very interesting.

This article, overall, reeks of angrybeavs, from Canzano’s questions to BDC’s lip service. If BDC is willing to field those types of questions maybe I should shoot him an email and ask for an interview myself. And Canzano, when are you going to send me royalties?

Craig Robinson May Get Fired

Hearing that Bob D has a meeting with him once he returns from the women’s tournament.

And then there’s theĀ scathing piece Eggers wrote, which mildly implies he’s not afraid of ruining any future relationship with CR. While driving through Corvallis mid-week, I heard a lot of talk radio with the same sentiment. The host was saying he had to go because the fans weren’t engaged. That there is nothing worse than a fan base that’s too apathetic to even hate the coach. Obviously I agree, having written about the apathetic football fan base for years.

The buyout is 4 mil. It might be worth paying — attendance will be sub 1k per game next year, donors are bailing, and a new coach would likely boost both. So the 4 mil “loss” might be greater by keeping him around.
