It was a shock to the college football world when Oregon State University announced that head coach Jonathan Smith would be leaving the program. After three seasons with the Beavers, Smith had compiled a record of 11-29, but had made progress in rebuilding the program.
Now, the search is on for a new head coach to take the reins and continue the rebuilding process. One name that has been mentioned as a potential replacement is Ryan Grubb, the current head coach at the University of Washington.
Grubb has been with the Huskies since 2016 and has led them to a record of 34-17. He has also been credited with helping to turn around the program, leading them to three bowl games in his four seasons.
Grubb has a strong track record of success and is well-respected in the college football world. He is known for his ability to develop players and get the most out of them. He also has a strong recruiting background, which could be beneficial for Oregon State.
However, Grubb is not without his flaws. He has had some issues with discipline in the past, which could be a red flag for Oregon State. He also has not had much success against top-tier teams, which could be a concern for the Beavers.
Ultimately, it remains to be seen if Grubb will be the man to take over at Oregon State. He certainly has the credentials to be successful, but there are some questions that need to be answered before he can be considered a serious candidate.
Oregon State will have to decide if Grubb is the right man for the job and if he can help take the program to the next level. Only time will tell if he is the right fit for the Beavers.
