Being fairly close to the program, I think Andy and Maurica Powell both have a lot to learn, and are WAY over their heads at Oregon.
They are much too young to administer and direct a running program the size of Oregon with all the expectations and tremendous athletes. They are fortunate athletes are attending the school just based on tradition.
I believe when the coaching changes occurred, Vin Lannana sponsored the Powells since he was the one who recruited them as assistant coaches in the first place. With all the tremendous athletes they recruit because of the Oregon name, they seem to get by..... for now.
Time will tell if the Powells can keep their jobs. But I don't think so, pressure will have them moving on. They will succumb to the big time college pressure, unfortunately.
Seems to be doing pretty damn well now, don't they? :)
