Source: Helfrich out as Oregon Ducks coach

Mark Helfrich is out as Oregon's football coach, a source confirmed to ESPN's Ted Miller.

His ouster was first reported by CSN Northwest.

The move comes just days after the Ducks wrapped up a 4-8 season with a 34-24 loss to rival Oregon State.

It was their worst season since 1991 (3-8) and marks the first time since 2004 that they won't appear in a bowl game.

Helfrich was expected to meet with athletic director Rob Mullens this week. Mullens had been in Texas until Tuesday, taking part in meetings with the College Football Playoff committee.
