Vigen just landed in Portland… best thing for the Griz?

[GriznMN]

Vigen is not qualified for Oregon State. Pac 12 is not FCS. He is right where he is succeeding currently.

Pac 12 (2026) is not Pac 12 (1980s/90s). Pac 12 (2026) is closer to Wyoming than USC.

I can only presume five other coaches have turned down OSU's offer?

 

[Ursa Major]

Honestly I’m prepared for my cats to loose him, but god not to a P-2 school

Sixx seems to be a good man and all but in my mind if he takes the OSU job he’s 3-4 years away from dismissal and humiliation. Then he’ll likely join Choate as a drifter, riding the rails out west, making stone soup with any local that can put up with their boring ass stories.

 

[HikeGlacier]

Any chance he takes Bobby with him to be a special teams coordinator?

 

[GriznMN]

Reporting is saying OSU and Vigen are close to finalizing a long-term deal.

Any chance you become a fan of Beaver?

 

[kemajic]

Very interesting! As an Oregonian and often suffering Beavers fan, I would really like this. It would be a huge ass challenge for Vigen because OSU is in the shitter. Having someone like him steer the ship would be fantastic. He’s a hell of a coach.

As Canzano had previously reported, Vigen has already interviewed.

Vigen has good chance to turn around OSU program...the Cats were supposed to be
reloading this year now they are contending for the title...look what Mike Rogers. Eck,
Entz seem to be doing quite well...I suspect Vigen will have the same success...

Frank knows these things ? I wonder if he asked why they are not rotating centers? This level of job requires at least a phone and person to person interview.

Hopefully he takes about 10 Cat players with him

If true I don’t see him coaching a single playoff game. He will also take some of his assistants. This could get interesting.

 

[RABIDAWG]

I would rather see our Griz program elevate to superiority over MSU and NDSU than hoping for their downgrades!

yes ...you would think he would have to 'let the Cat out of the bag' confess to the players
and opt out of the playoffs and wish them well....

You could have included Bobby in that post.

He'd be about as successful at OSU as Choade has been at Nevada.

Then Do you think you could beat us.

I remember that same argument when he came to MSU...I think he is
a pedigree coach and will have success there...wish him well..

Well he'll beat the shit out of Choade's Nevada squad, that's for sure.

How were the bubs "rebuilding"? They were the 3rd ranked team in the country.

God I hate these fake GRIZ fan trolls.

Yes. Because "we" can beat "you" now.
