It is Year 2 in the Gary Andersen rebuild and Oregon State is looking to make it offensive.
Gary Andersen knew it was going to be difficult. Perhaps he didn't know exactly how difficult it would be.
Taking over a team that just three years prior had been one of the surprise "breakout" teams in the nation, you would forgive Andersen if he had assumed all that was required was a little tinkering of the playbook, a few well-placed transfer candidates and a little bit of his patented "tough love" leadership style.
What transpired was completely different.
