Leavitt leaves Colorado, for Oregon
- Thread starter GBRhuskers
- Start date
Wow, great hire for the Ducks. I hope Thomas Graham hates him
I'm kinda wondering why Leavitt would leave a school with a NC trophy and Pac12 championship appearance for a school with no trophies and 4 wins last year
Maybe his girlfriend lives in Oregon.I'm kinda wondering why Leavitt would leave a school with a NC trophy and Pac12 championship appearance for a school with no trophies and 4 wins last year
Show me the money! I put it in the other thread, but I bet Graham was not in the dark about this given the timing.
His former teammate, duh! Wait, what if the two are the same?
Heck of a hire by Oregon. Interesting thing, they both coached at USF.
I hate coaches who hire their friends.
They didn't coach at USF together, are they friends through a different avenue?

I think you're losing it.
I think someone needs to remind recruits why Leavitt was fired from USF.
Here's the Denver Post story:
Leavitt to Oregon
Colorado was paying Leavitt more than $500K per year and he probably got a bonus for making the PAC-12 championship game. But I think Colorado has some tough restrictions on multi-year contracts for assistant coaches, and Oregon apparently is offering four years and big dollars. This will be a big setback for the Buffs - Leavitt made big strides with that defense, despite having only so-so talent to work with.

Eight senior starters helps any defense, no matter how good the coach is. CU was bound to fall back to earth next year, losing so many seniors on defense and a senior quarterback.
4 year contract that will make him the higgest paid coordinator ever in the Pac12I'm kinda wondering why Leavitt would leave a school with a NC trophy and Pac12 championship appearance for a school with no trophies and 4 wins last year

Be nice to people on your way up, you might pass them again on your way back up.
That guy has done it twice now. Made a program from scratch starting with a double wide trailer at USF, goofs up royally, then works his way back to this. Must be a very intelligent football mind.

I think you're mistaken about that NC trophy, think they got the other one:I'm kinda wondering why Leavitt would leave a school with a NC trophy and Pac12 championship appearance for a school with no trophies and 4 wins last year
