Wilcox is a very good defensive coach. His offense at Kal has be run by Beau Baldwin and subsequently Bill Musgrave. It hasn't gone well on that side of the ball.

However, Wilcox has done nothing that indicates he can deliver an offense. Maybe he can, but Oregon isn't going to hire on a maybe. Wilcox would be greeted by incredulity in the fan base.

No question…
The Ducks are looking to make a big hire. Wilcox hardly qualifies…..
I'm not the only one who feels Wilcox would win big at Oregon:

Here's another vote for Wilcox.

I've never been all that impressed with the guy, but apparently a fair number of people are.
Out of curiosity, do you find anything impressive about him? To me, he's a no-nonsense, no shortcuts kind of guy. He's exceptionally honest and doesn't have a defensive bone in his body. Cal ties boat anchors to its football program like few places do. Nick Saban could coach Cal and it's hard to imagine them being any better. One thing you will never call a Justin Wilcox team is soft. He has been remarkably unable to land difference makers at the offensive skill positions, and Cal's QB situation after Garbers is a giant ?, but his teams always compete hard and just don't have the talent to beat top competition consistently.
