Ouch!

I might volunteer to coach UCLA against the Ducks.

Not that it'd matter one way or the other...

I think he has done some good things there, but considering he just isn't either recruiting well enough or coaching up the players well enough (or both) shows. That's a school that should be a much better team than they have shown recently.

If Belotti wanted to return to coaching, this is a good opportunity.

People are expecting an announcement on Wulff too. Wulff leaving would suck. He's good people. Not too sure about Slick.

Wulff reminds me of someone who wears velcro shoes. I've heard that his players find him very awkward.

Velcro shoes sound really cool.

I like rooting for the underdog. Hope Rick doesn't end up at WSU. Could never root for them again.

Somebody should tell Neuheisel he's been fired, because I just saw him on Fox talking about Friday's game at Autzen.

Slick Rick just got fired. Will still coach Friday.

Slick Rick just got fired. Will still coach Friday.

Man, the ultimate dis. "Rick, thanks for the 50-0 loss to 'SC. Oh yeah, you're f****** fired. By the way, mind staying on for the Duck shellacking? I'm sure they'll want to discuss the fake punt again. And one last thing- if we make a bowl game, you won't be there. Thanks again, Rick. Look, here's a few bus tokens for you."

Local media weighs in. Slick may have earned a few respect points from me.
