X-box boy to Texas?

[uostudent]

Rumor is that Justin Wilcox is set to become the DC at Texas. Wilcox is very good friends with Tosh and may try to bring him to Texas as his defensive line coach.

Texas would reportedly double Tosh's current salary.

Tosh leaving Cali would be awesome.

Could be some of the best news we hear this recruiting cycle.

Not so sure the news is all that good, could mean the XBox boy will close off the Texas pipeline for Duck recruits

Texas already gets pretty much every in-state recruit they want, before any other team in the nation.

Unless Tosh is able to increase the NCAA scholarship limit, I doubt it has a significant impact on any Oregon "pipeline".

Do they even play XBox in Texas?

Eh doubt it, Texas has so much talent and TX usually has to pass up on some good recruits because they run out of space quickly. Also, lots of the guys who came to Oregon really wanted to leave the state, so a different DL coach probably wouldn't change anything.

He's been hurting the Ducks on the recruiting front for quite a while now. Going to any team outside of the Pac-10 would be a big boost for Oregon IMO.

[Boom]

Thomas, LMJ, & Huff didn't have Texas offers (thank god).

Anthony Wallace was one of four LB's offered by Texas, but lost his spot once the other 3 committed.

Tosh leaving could help Oregon immediately, if the kids he has recruited to Cal are more interested in him, than Cal, per se.

[buckmarkduck]

LMJ has said many of times he was not a Texas fan and didn't want to go to UT. So if you take him at his word, he would have still ended up at UO even if Texas had offered.

Why do you think Tosh and Justin are good friends? They did not play against each other, grow up together nor are the same age...

[duxball]

they are both cheap?

[mrpd21]

Well on the positive side we mostly snag offensive position players from Texas so Tosh may not be a huge factor. I would certainly rather see him go than stay @ CAL!!

If he left I wonder if any of those kids that decided to pick Cal would come begging for the schollie offer back?

Just curious where you heard the rumor? Also, how much are they planning to raise Wilcox' salary? He's already making $600,000. Muschamp was making $900,000, but he was also designated the "coach in waiting".

If true, it may help the Ducks, though, considering that they have to play Tennessee again in a couple years and they'll likely be a lot better.

I saw it posted here. I'm not sure about the Tosh tie in, but the Wilcox story was reported by these guys. http://twitter.com/fbrumormill

Wilcox coached at Cal with him in 01' to '04 and they became good friends. Dont quote me on the exact date but I remember it was around that time.
