Oregon Extension on the Table for Mario

[AtrainCane]

I’ve always said money was never the end all. He wants this ran like a big boy program. The deal was selling him that they were.

This is all I needed to see…I got ya

if true don't do it miami!! bring kiffin

I'm concerned with how much we will pay his staff if we pay 10 mil a year for him. I do not want another situation like we had with Richt. I loved Richt, but his staff was cheap.

Understand the concern but my man, if he agrees to come here...we are ponying up enough for him and his desired staff and everything else he wants/needs. The buck doesn’t end with just him getting paid.

Just had a thought. What if Mario was never really the guy we wanted, but we acted like it in order to get a former alum a massive pay raise, all while distracting people from our real target?

Nah, we're not that smart.

Lol aint no way miami could pull that off.

The oldtimers would like this post and song from the late great Jackie Gleason from the Honeymooners which I used to watch in Black and White TV on WKOR, Channel 9, in New York City.

I’d like to send some of these BOT members to the moon, Alice. Bang! Zoom!

You think Lane would come here on the cheap?

Certainly not after what’s been happening

they came out and said they had the $$.

everyone knows how much $$ is in UHealth, they'll get solid coordinators too

they aren't going to pay 10 mil per year for a coach (who isn't a good coordinator on either side) and then neglect the coordinator positions

It would be a nastier move than Tim Hardaway's nastiest crossover ever. It would break ankles.

Phil Knight ain't going down without a fight eh?

Match it and we don't have to worry about anything.

Do you really think that they offer him an extension only because Miami is pushing for him? I bet that offer has been on Cristobal's table for weeks, if not months.

 

[Canes2082]

I understand it has to be done now. I was just asking the rhetorical question.

Ah ok gotcha

It's pure fantasy. I'm guessing he has a competent agent. Besides what do we care? Everyone is gonna be in the same cash strapped/buyout boat soon.. At least ask the big boys.

But suddenly it's very public

Any Eugene city taxes??

It’s mentally taxing to live in Oregon. Does that count?

I think we'll match whatever Oregon is offering Mario money wise. Where I think there gonna beat us is the commitment to the football program. Assistant salaries, Recruiting budget, facilities etc. Hopefully I'm Wong but we shall she

A live look at Mario with Oregon's extension paperwork

Wow... Mario looks good for a 60+ year old woman....

Disagree. Oregon has seen all the money being spent this week. They know miami is interested. They know his mom is sick. They know miami will offer big money based on this weeks deals.

They are throwing huge money at him to keep him.

Look I don’t feel bad for Manny at all, but there’s only one way the national media would view a program going after another teams’ head coach while still having their own employed.

Obviously we all knew what was going on, but they didn’t. So we should probably fire manny shortly (I know @Brooklyndee alluded to Sunday) but that buys 48 hours for more Miami hate and pressure from all over.
