I see UW graduating NFL players and replacing them with decent college players, which is classic Peterman. They will be very well coached though.
Willie will be landing Top 10 caliber recruiting classes every year. If he can coach the series will be firmly back in Oregon's grasp in a couple years. If he can't coach we will be USC North in a couple years.
Either way, Chinteresting.
i hear florida calling, but the OL is pretty fucking good.
If it weren't his first year and Florida actually did offer him I think he would take it. Personally I think it's easier to get to the playoffs from Eugene now than Gainsville. Nick and Kirby aren't going anywhere any time soon. You will have to basically beat both to get in while having to play Auburn or LSU on top of that. Oddly every Bama fan I've talked to has a ton of respect for Willie. I guess when he was at WKU they played Bama tough.
Eight of the ten man O-line rotation is back next year. The #1 JC tackle will fill one of the spots after this redshirt. It will continue to be the strength as RB will be a new adventure and the WR core will be freakishly athletic but freshman and sophomores.
You guys have an adventure of your own next year. Losing those two D-tackles and your punt returner/only deep threat are going to make it a much different team.
