A few things ...
-- It will be interesting to see what ex-Oregon coach Mark Helfrich does next.
He doesn't have to make up his mind today, tomorrow or this year thanks to the $11.6 million buyout he is getting from the Ducks.
Some guys live to coach football, and it's hard to imagine them doing anything else. Former Oregon State coach Dennis Erickson springs to mind. Erickson, who recently retired at 69 as running backs coach at Utah, reportedly will join the staff of his son, Bryce, at an Idaho high school.
I've never seen Helfrich as one of those guys.
