They pushed aside Mr. Nice Guy Bill Stewart and stole OSU's Offensive Coordinator, Dana Holgorson to be the "Head Coach in Waiting." He's expected to be the head coach in 2012.

I like the move.

Why is this a good move? Stewart has one nine games each of his three seasons.

OSU's offenses have been tremendous. Also, Holgorson is seen as a great recruiter and a potential star.

as a huge WVU alum, season tix holder etc)

This is how it basically went down

Oliver Luck is the new AD... He broke it to Stew that he had to find a solution for his OCoord and OL Coach (which has been horrid) this season....

He basically said look you are getting fired or you can help find a replacement for you (to much politics for me)


They hired Holgorsen... keeping all the D coaches, but he will be reevualting the offense....

Stew has a pretty solid career winning pct... but Luck said the following.

"With Coach Stewart, we are unable to win a national title"

End of story...
