After weeks of waiting, Oregon State finally has their man.
Jonathan Smith, the quarterback that led the Beavers during the best season in the program's history, is coming home to be the head coach.
Many fans are excited for the former quarterback's return, as the name Jonathan Smith conjures memories of an 11-1 season; of a 41-9 dismantling of Notre Dame in the 2001 Fiesta Bowl; of a #4 ranking in the season-ending AP Poll. The idea of Smith taking the disaster that has become Oregon State football and somehow stabilizing the program, building the program back up to the heights that he once took it to as a player.
