Came in expecting OS beav

Bray is reportedly going to be paid $2 million per year.  

The OSU AD wanted to make it seem like it was going to be status quo without the P5 PAC 12 but we all knew that wasn't the case.

Bray was a disaster as the linebackers coach at Nebraska. I hope he does much better as a head coach or it could make Oregon State a lemon for the MWC.

OSU and WSU will settle to USU level in the MWC if they don't fight to maintain momentum coming in and sink.

Welcome to ballin' on a budget Beavs and Cougs.

Well he's been outstanding as a Pac-12 DC. Perhaps the problem at UNL was bad players, since you haven't had a winning season now in about half a century.

I guess he isn’t much of a recruiter at his position then.

Assistant coaches recruit by geographic area, not by position.

I just. 

I remember watching OSU get spanked by University of Alaska. 

They kinda always suck. 

I would tell em and wsu to kick rocks. But I am in the minority. I like the mwc.

Until it's "go time" of course.

To be fair, Bray is a rookie head coach like Smith was. Smith started at $1.9 million with an assistant pool of $3.3 million. Bray is starting at $2 million with an assistant pool of $4.85.

So this technically is status quo for Oregon State.

That’s not to say that I believe the Beavers can continue operating at a P5 level in the future. I just don’t think that the number is an indication of Oregon State operating on a lower budget immediately.

So if Bray is successful and doesn't get bumped up to Smiths previous salary that would be.
