Guy Benjamin also, Pac-8 Player of the Year and played six seasons in the NFL.
And Todd Husak did lead Stanford to its first Rose Bowl in almost 30 years.

Great memory DC. I haven't looked but could only get Benjamin

Oregon got Alabama OL coach Mario Cristobal as its co-OC/OL coach: https://twitter.com/CoachSamz/status/819950549483327489
nice hire.
Re: Coaching carousel - fullmetal - 01-13-2017
Whoa. Is Oregon going to a pro-style offense?
Re: Coaching carousel - BostonCard - 01-13-2017
Darned, I was hoping they would have gotten Alabama OC Steve Sarkisian.

Taggart, Leavitt, Cristobal > Helfrich, Hoke, Lubick
Taggart seems to be doing a nice job on coaching hires and on the recruiting trail.

Remember Willie Taggart was our running backs coach during the Harbaugh years, so, yes, I would expect lots of Power from him.
I wonder if we have reached "peak spread"

BC, allow me to update and expand a bit. After two years @ USF Taggert hired a couple of new assistants and dropped his power run offense for a spread type offense that they labeled a "Gulf Coast" offense. This was on display during their recent Birmingham Bowl victory over South Carolina where they rang up 46 points. The coach calling the offense for that game was David Reaves, one of the architects of the Gulf Coast, and newly hired as an Oregon co-OC with Bama's Cristobal. Ducks also picked up WSU's D-line coach, Joe Salave'a, who has done a great job for them the last several years.
Re Taggert: I'd extend larkinforever's "more than line" by a couple of entries. I'm reminded of the old Michael Caine line from The Eagle has Landed: "It seems that this man knows his business".

With Taggart's good coaching hires, perhaps rumors of Oregon's demise have been greatly exaggerated? Three-way battle for North division supremacy?

They were always greatly exaggerated. Oregon had a super-young offense, partially by choice and partially by injury; and of course an awful defense. Both problems can be remedied.

To hear the national pundits, Oregon is over.
Re: Coaching carousel - unclechuck - 01-13-2017
LF -Oregon may be hard to figure. No question there were locker room and off the field issues that will need to be resolved. And, while their front line players - particularly on offense - are formidable, they do have depth issues particularly on defense, that may need a couple of good recruiting classes to resolve.
At this point the coaching staff appears to be entirely new, so there will be challenges with all new playbooks, schemes, & terminology so I'd expect some growing pains at least early in 2017, if not the whole year. OTOH, I wouldn't be surprised to see them run up 50 points a couple of times next fall. Following how they close on recruiting this year may be instructive on how quickly they may be getting back up to their peak years.,

Looks like the 49ers have settled on Kyle Shanahan, so Shaw ain't going nowhere, as they say.
