Nope, a better chance that Cramsey is a coach there.

I thought so too at one point but you would think there would be a little more buzz at this point if that was the case. Did I miss something? Also, if Tim ends up on the (O) staff wouldn't you think Prukop has a little better chance of seeing the field there?

Yes, I would. But, I think there was ZERO chance that Cramsey would even get a glance at Alabama, so Oregon is the next best option for Cramsey should he get in the door. Not sure he will though like you said.
Catsrback76 said:
Zero at Alabama, not sure Oregon is the next best option for him. He might think so but I don't think they share the same love. Plenty of other schools that will welcome him with open arms. Not saying Oregon is out, he has more immediate and definite options to make his mortgage payment.

Yes, I agree. I don't think he is going to end up in Oregon, though I think he thought he would. When the dust settles, he will go where he can get the work. Likely another FCS school, but we shall see.
Holy Sh :shock: t...
I guess that 2011 semifinal run didn't do anything to bring exciting offense to the Big Sky...and has the kid seen EWU the last five years? You know, with a national title mixed in? He was perfect for the Cats, the best because we say so, facts be damned.

I think Prukop is a good kid, his press conferences over the years have indicated he knows what to say, knows how to protect his teammates.
The more I read his comments since his decision to leave, that image is fading for me a bit. Some of his comments have rubbed me the wrong way for sure. Could be a classic case of kid got too big for his britches.

If God would have intended Texans to ski, he would have made bulls**t white.
He shoulda considered borrowing a pair from Coach Ron Ash. Plenty of room to spare in those babies.

He was the offense at State. But from what I saw, he made one read and tucked it if the throw wasn't there. As the season went on, the better teams in the Big Sky put a spy on him and lessened his effectiveness as a runner. He gets the FCS first team as quarterback? Wasn't even the best QB in the Big Sky.
This leads me to a couple of predictions: First, he will struggle mightily against better opponents. After all, getting hit by a kid from USC is a bit different than running circles around Fort Lewis.
Second, the Cat cupboard is empty on both sides of the ball: o-line, quarterback, nearly the whole damn defense. There may be some transfers and some improvement with experience, but .500 ball will be a reach, even with the typical, early season cupcakes.

That points to a question I have had from the start of this whole ego trip for him. Has anyone actually seen anything that officially said both Oregon and Alabama were truly interested in and offered him, or was it just an imagined case of his horribly over inflated sense of worth?

From Alabama.com
"Saban and Kiffin attempted to sell Prukop on playing for a program with the history of Alabama's and on being able to add a dual-threat quarterback dynamic to the Tide's offense.
Saban and Kiffin made a final pitch over the phone Monday before Prukop decided on Oregon, which was his early top choice.
"It was tough because there wasn't one wrong answer," Prukop said. "There's two really good decisions, two really good schools to choose from. And it was more so what's best for me, where I'm going to be happy, and that's what it came down to.""
