A lot of posters here raved ... RAVED ... about the hiring of Anderson. He was the second coming of Jesus. How lucky we were to get such a great coach considering when and how Riley departed.
Just sayin' ...

And your point is? Yep, he was a great hire. A fantastic hire. Had an awesome resume.
He's also a bust. It happens. Nothing is guaranteed. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. I saved 15% by switching to Geico. Any other cliches we can pull out?
Having a great resume never stopped anybody from making stupid decisions about running a program, and the only decisions this fraud has gotten right over the last 3 years have happened by accident.

Just sayin' ... All that means to me is *we* know jack sh!t about hiring coaches. But firing coaches, on that subject we all rule. |

Just sayin' ... I thought it was a home run hire, and predicted we'd rush for a minimum of 2500 yards in 2015... Figured we'd have an impressive spread attack similar to Baldwin's 2014 CSU team. Close, opponents rushed for 2700 yards against us!!! Silly me for thinking CGA would use what he had available! |

Just sayin' ... Heck, I thought he was a great hire... however there were people on this board who were glowing about his "turning around Riley's mess" while a few of us simply said he hadn't done anything yet. Those who acted like he actually was accomplishing anything are the people who should be a little embarrassed right now. I'm still hoping he can turn things around, but so far it appears the only mess is the one he essentially created. |

Somehow Riley got 3 wins though. I guess there's still hope. |

The supposedly "soft" teams won at least 5 games. seems like a magic trick to win 5 games now. If Riley were in the mess that Anderson is in now (and he certainly was a number of times) he would maintain his cool, NEVER blame the players and keep even the underperforming guys on the field, especially if they were seniors. They might dog it for a couple of games then Hip Hip Hurray rise up and beat a Wazzu in Pullman for instance because the players took it upon themselves to get their sh!t together because they knew the coaches wouldn't do it for them. In fact the coaches would keep playing them even after they embarrassed themselves horribly. Yeah that would work about 5 times a year, sometimes 6. Hip Hip Hurray. |

It was hard not to be excited. A coach on the rise and left a top-tier program at Wiscy for OSU - seemed completely inexplicably lucky for OSU.
Frankly, this is what gives me the most hope that CGA will learn from his mistakes and figure out how to right the ship. Between how he left Wiscy and getting fired by OSU, I suspect it would be a long time before he'd get another FBS gig - at least any sort of desirable one. That's a tough pill to swallow for anybody remotely competitive about their career trajectory.
Unless CGA took a fat does of stupid pill somewhere around the tOSU game, he should be able to figure this out. The first one being that he has a lot of things still to learn, and can expedite that by bringing in/listening to smarter coaches. He may or may not have that within his wheelhouse. He'll either figure that out, or his coaching career effectively dead-ends here, at our expense.

Just sayin' ... Yeah, and Gary totally opened the floodgates to criticism when he won exactly zero Pac12 games that first year and ran off a bunch of guys that might have helped the team. Gary gets criticism because Gary hasn't won hardly any football games and keeps getting blown out at a record setting pace. DONT TRY AND PUT THIS ON US. |

I think we have mined that pit down to spent coal mine Perhaps we should try Montana, North Dakota or Washington DC |
