A six-seat twin-jet that belongs to the wife of University of Oregon booster Pat Kilkenny left Teterboro, NJ airport in the wee hours of Wednesday. It carried not only Ducks athletic director Rob Mullens, but a big question.
No return of Chip Kelly?
Willie Taggart instead.
That's the next man in at Oregon, per multiple reports. Taggart leaves the University of South Florida and replaces fired Ducks coach Mark Helfrich. Taggart knows the West Coast, having been an assistant at Stanford. He's recruited Florida well, having set up shop there. He's rebuilt things, having turned a pair of 2-10 programs into winners.
