Nick Kranz: Chip Kelly has to be the best, and Herm Edwards the worst, right? So really it's now a debate between Oregon State Beavers coach Jonathan Smith and Oregon Ducks coach Mario Cristobal for 2nd/3rd. I guess I'd give the nod to Cristobal since he has previous head coaching experience and a better resume as a coordinator and recruiter, but neither hires strike me as obvious coups. Smith was about as good as you could expect OSU to attract considering the state of their program and the money they have to spend.
Cal fans, thoughts on the new Pac-12 coaching hires?
