Love the hire! A new energy needed and hopefully no more "we had a great weak of practice" in trying to explain defeats week after week.  All you "experts"(ROFL) on here yapping about W-L records; moving to the MWC; suggesting Les Miles should have been hired(You have got to be joking),  etc. make life easy on yourself and go watch teams next season with "big name" coaches. The fact is, nobody predicted Chip Kelly's success coming from New Hampshire either and I recall similar commentary as I am reading here when he was promoted to head coach.  Why don't you stop pretending like you actually know what it is like to interview / make a DECISION to hire a Power 5 Conference head football coach and instead wait and see how he does beginning with recruiting?  One thing is certain, IF this time next year Oregon just played in the Pac-12 Conference Championship Game...none of you will be on here complaining that Helfrich should still be the coach and spewing all your other nonsense. GO DUCKS!
