Sorry and inaccurate post Eugenean.  The Ducks are loaded and will remain so.  Compete for the NC each year--unlikely.  This is not Alabama for e.g.  But compete for the PAC 12 title, kick your dawgs or beavs annually and win 9-12 games--absolutely.  Yes, Helfrich is no CK but that is both good and bad.  Now we have Yost, Lubick, and Hoke--all significant upgrades.  Defense will improve and offense will evolve.  Another 10 win year at least with an excellent shot at the conf champ.
