I just think there is no way Smith comes back and more so I don't think the Beavers would go that route. I do think he would be a better coach that what they have had this year. Lets all hope this new hire will be good.
Yeah, I have no sense if they would or wouldn't take him back. I think it would be a smart move to do it.

Hopefully the new guy makes that irrelevant. It just sucks that there's bad blood between Smith and The Beavs. I'd love to see it healed and see him take them to new heights.
 
It's not that Smith left, Riley and Erickson left but we're welcomed back.

It's that Smith quit on the team during the season, the final of 100+ PAC seasons. That would be disappointing for a player but is beyond unacceptable for a coach. There is no action from Beavers AD or others that can excuse that. Smith could have accepted whatever job he wanted but still coaches here until he left. That is the normal practice of all coaches in CFB. Smith failed in that small bit of standard professional courtesy. To do it during the darkest hour of Beavers football history is beyond insulting.

Now could have an argument of who is worse between Smith and Barnes. Unfortunately we're still stuck with one of them.
