Rick Neuheisel interested in return to coaching, Oregon State job

Throw Rick Neuheisel into the mix as a possible candidate as the next football coach at Oregon State.

Neuheisel, who most recently served as the coach at UCLA after stops at Colorado and Washington, confirmed to ESPN he is intrigued by the job. The current CBS Sports analyst and SiriusXM radio host first told Oregon-based radio host John Canzano on Wednesday that he misses coaching and expressed interest in the opening, which was created last month when Gary Andersen and the school parted ways after just 21 games.

"I'm not going to pursue it," Neuheisel told ESPN.
