Earlier today someone on one of the educk message boards, "Open Season" mentioned that Oregon might be interested in the Louisville Athletic Director in that he held people accountable. I didn't think much of it until I later today read from the Associated Press that Louisville TODAY gave a two year contract extension to Louisville AD Tom Jurich after several schools (not named) had made overtures to Louisville about Jurich.Click on the title above for a link to a Sporting News story on the contract extension. He may be thanking Oregon for the extra money and contract extension?
Louisville, Kentucky? Rich Brooks is the head football coach at the University of Kentucky and is mentioned as a potential AD candidate at Oregon as is Kentucky AD Mitch Barnhart. What a coincidence, three potential candidates all in Kentucky..... developing....Update Brooks and Barnhardt both got contract extensions today too "in principle" Another coincidence? Developing...... I wonder if they too can thank Oregon for their contract extensions....????? An agreement "in principle" is not necessarily binding.
