Exactly. Never proactive always reactive. The AD situation should have been reconciled already. End of the year, boom Manny is gone, spot him the extra two million as you are flushed with cash, and get Mario, Lane (who is dying for the job), Petersen, Stoops, or whomever. USC did it, Florida did it, so will LSU probably. You know what that's called? Being ORGANIZED!
It also stems from the clear division, infighting, and politics that has plagued this program for decades. When outsiders can see it clear as day, god only knows how bad it is within the walls. These people deserve no trust or confidence in the ability to "get it right" and it only exacerbates the issues when things get leaked only to fall flat days later. I for one am perfectly fine with not being informed on things as long as there is legitimate planning and action going on to lead to results. The constant smokescreens, leaks, and orchestrated messaging (on the other hand) plays right in the line with the running joke University of Miami athletics has become.
Jurich is so qualified that nobody else has offered him a job? As I've said previously, I'd be fine with Jurich, but given his history, you absolutely have to dig further into his background just to be sure there aren't other skeletons there. Doesn't matter that Louisville cleared him publicly, you still have to do your due diligence. That's just smart business. If he's not the guy and they actually are getting interest from current ADs at other schools, who's to say right now someone in that group isn't an upgrade from Jurich?
1) If Mario leaves Oregon, it's to Miami or Alabama. Doesn't matter what any other school does or offers him.
Great porst. Porst less though and make us miss them
And you sound like a guy who's never hired people to any meaningful jobs. This is how the process works. Many people can be qualified, but if they have stuff in their past that comes out later that's scandal-worthy and you didn't bother to check into whether it exists, that's a bad look. If they don't hire Jurich, I'm sure we'll learn why.

Blake was fired 2 weeks ago man... It's really not that long
So, your assumption is they have talked to AD candidates for the past 6 weeks and are just waiting on announcing the new hire for some unknown reason? I will go with the safer assumption that this administration will ***** up as they consistently have over the past 20 years, beginning with the hiring of Larry Coker for the head coaching job.
