Don't think it was a money thing.
:lol:
That obviously plays a part, but Oregon State likely would have given him every dollar they had available if he wanted to stay. Not sure the money differential in the contracts, we'll have to see. I think it was more a move of "This Oregon state program is crashing down so hard, I won't be able to recruit anyone, our team will suck and be in a bad conference and I'll be stuck there for years.... Or I can go to a huge named school in a big division and try to turn that around and if I do, I'll be able to recruit better there"

He will have more resources, money and prestige at Michigan State to work with than he would ever have at Oregon State. Even if the Pac12 didn't implode, he was going to leave. It sucks, but it's just the way it is. The Oregon schools are stepping stones. Both of them.
I really don't think he would have left if the Pac didn't implode. He really embraced the school and the program and the town of Corvallis. We were on the up, and there was no reason to think we couldn't be a top 25 program for years and years to come.

The schools leaving changed everything and it's now a sinking ship for The Beavers.
 
Well, Michigan was resilient once again. McCarthy was classy giving props to OSU as a tough opponent, seems like a good kid.

Day was walking slow and his head was hanging low in the tunnel as Michigan has taken over the rivalry. Day letting clock run out in first half instead of being aggressive helped Michigan. Day got outcoached by a Michigan assistant. Time to cut bait.

Those 2 announcers drove me crazy today. Almost ruined the game for me.
Nah, Day needs an extension.

He has his sights set higher than top 25 and the Michigan State job gives him that opportunity better than the Oregon State job. That was true 5 years ago and it's true now. He's got a lot of years left in life to coach football. He could always return to Corvallis later in life but you can't fault him for taking this job.
 
Late to the party, but Michigan’s Sherrone Moore called a helluva game. A couple aggressive fourth down plays; bringing in a bench QB to pull off a big run; RB Edwards passing to the TE; played it straight on defense (announcers mentioned they disguised coverages well). Very happy for him …that win is something he can carry with him for the rest of his life.
 
I did love that Auburn double tight end motion play that drew Bama offsides.

What a cool play.
Awful, 3 in motion at the same time. They would have hit a FG anyway but ran more time off.

Hats off to Auburn for their play, not taking anything away from their effort.

Dude has done a 180 from just a few years ago. I railed against his play calling all the time as being predictable and really conservative. Hes changed my opinion of him. If Jim leaves, Id love for him to be the coach.
