Petras > any Husker QB recruit. We would do well to have Drew Sanders consider us as his college destination.

Sanders is a 2020 kid so Petras being better is irrelevant; they will need a QB recruit in the 2020 class too. I'm saying keeping Petras onboard is priority #1. He's the real deal. Big thumbs up.

Every paid assistant needs to be willing and able to spend long hours on the road recruiting. Will Riley’s heart be in it? If not, he’d be better utilized as a consultant. Recruiting is the lifeblood of any program, and you can’t sacrifice a single spot on the staff. I feel like Riley would be able to handle the rigors of recruiting fine. He loves the game and still has passion (even if his time has past to run an entire program) and he’s not an ego guy, he loves OSU and Corvallis and has a great track record with QBs and receivers. In particular, I’d love it if even more than having a region, he was the guy recruiting QBs and receivers. I know that realistically assistant coaches don’t just recruit position groups, but if it was possible here, IMO that would be the perfect arrangement. He doesn't have to be charge of an entire region... just potential QB recruits. It's done all the time. Let the guru be a guru with input on other tapes. Still find it funny that JS is thought so highly of, yet having MR in staff brings so many reservations. It's not like JS is being forced if it happens. If you trust he's the right hire then trust his ability to determine if MR belongs.

If you trust he's the right hire For me, its not about trusting or not trusting JS. For me, its about how the fan base reacts if OSU is 1-4 in 2018 and if they start chanting for Riley. That is where my reservations come from.

That is where my reservations come from. this would never happen in a million years. Why? Based on how a significant percentage of fans react when anyone questions Riley's last few years at OSU I disagree with your assessment.

There’s a difference between defending and not thinking his last few years were as bad as a significant portion of fans thought they were and wanting Riley back for a third time. I disagree with your assessment.

Based on how many fans want the backup QB at any given time at OSU, I’ve no doubts there would be fans calling for the “backup coach”.

Angrybeav site claiming this was leaked from one of the pay sites. If true, how do you feel about it? I like Riley, but I feel like him being on staff in an official capacity will undermine Smith with players , and even some of the staff if they are former beavers. Don’t think Riley would do this intentionally, but the threat is still there. I like the idea of having him in some capacity - not calling plays that's for sure... For the haters - if this resume had a name other than MR's would you want him on the staff: As a player: 2-time Oregon State HS Champion 4 SEC Conference Titles 1 National Title As a Coach: 5 Conference Titles and a National Title while at Linfield 3 Canadian Football Championships with Winnipeg (2 as HC) 2 Pac-10 Conference Titles (as a USC assistant) Notes: Coached Jim Harbaugh in SD (thought that was funny) Drafted LaDainian Tomlinson Drafted Drew Brees Coaching tree includes Paul Chryst and Norv Turner Put him in a supporting role - allot of knowledge in that head...

I'd personally love to have him back in that role. Riley is a great offensive mind, and for the haters out there, I think it's pretty clear we were always a lot better with him than without him. He ran his course here as a head coach, yeah, and no, I wouldn't want to go down that path again....but if we could utilize him in a supporting role of some kind, it's a no-brainer to me.

Can we please move on from Riley? He's done nothing but lose over the past 5 plus years. The game has passed him by as should smith The fundamentals to success in football do not change. So to suggest the game "has passed him by" is to suggest the fundamentals of the game have changed. They haven't. People said the same thing about Paterno too. Starting at the age of 74 he had a 5 year run from 2000-2004 with one winning season. The next five years went like this: 11-1, 9-4, 9-4, 11-2, 11-2. Players, teams, injuries, schedules, and circumstances change. The critical fundamentals to winning don't. MR's QB this year, playing in a new system to him, and behind a porous O-line, was the second leading passer behind McSorely in a 14 team conference. He threw for 23 TD passes. That's 17 more TD passes than our QB threw.

4 wins 8 losses and you are counting td passes. How many picks did he have? Or is that irrelevant. Who was responsible for Nebraskas poor o line play, Gary Anderson lol. Living in the past, move on Or learn how to use the quote function before throwing meaningless barbs... really ofer three? Or just two and gave up? PS- there is a delete post function too!

Living in the past, move on And Paterno went 3-9 in 03' and 11-1 in 05'. So the point you're trying to make is an uneducated one. By the way MR won 9 games last year, which sadly is 3 more wins than we've had over the past 3 years. Relax and let 9'er put together his staff. I'll support whoever he hires. Suggest you do the same, or just stick to your duck board springfieldpatricia.
