I don’t think you can blame him for wanting to leave Dooley. I would not want to work under that man. He was holding Wilcox back.Didn't he kind of pull a Kiffin by leaving after he had agreed to stay? I don't remember the details, but I thought he was gonna stay then went to play for Sarkisian or somebody like that.
Oh and I hate Cal. I hope Miami hangs a 50 burger on them.
Yup that 2012 Offense was one the the best we ever had but the damn season went to Hell because we paired it with the worst Defense we ever had.JW just on Gameday. Always liked him when he was our DC under Dool. Have always thought if he hadnt left after the 2011 season the 2012 team would have won 3 or 4 more games and gone 8-4 or even 9-3 . Instead Dools hired Sunseri and the rest is history.
How much time passed between agreeing to stay and leaving? I don’t remember. If it was one day, then I agree, that is shady, but a lot can happen in one month. If a better opportunity comes along that you cannot refuse, I get it.I get that, but if I remember correctly he had agreed to stay. So much for honor and integrity.
If you could master that selective memory erasure, you could make your fortune. So many applications for it.I'm trying to scrub the 2008-2020 seasons off my brain forever. I'm trying to get the beer to target those specific brain cells every Saturday. Having these thread titles pop up in front of me is hindering my progress.
Don't know about promises but he wanted to be on the West Coast where he grew up. His mother is from Georgia and he has relatives there but he wanted to be in the NW.Didn't he kind of pull a Kiffin by leaving after he had agreed to stay?

The offensive line that year was filthy nasty. Then add in two dynamic receivers (plus a burner in Z-Ro) and a qb who could sling it. Pair that offense with one of the Fulmer defenses of the Randy Sanders inept offense years and they would have won a lot of games.Yup that 2012 Offense was one the the best we ever had but the damn season went to Hell because we paired it with the worst Defense we ever had.
Dooley should have been fired after the 2011 loss to Kentucky. The 2012 team would have had a better opportunity with another coach.
