1. Mark Helfrich

Mark Helfrich is basically just riding it out with the Oregon Ducks now. After another ugly loss last week, Helfrich is likely on his way out of Eugene and will look to find his next home as a coach in college football.

With rumors of Phil Knight willing to throw all types of money at any coach that can make his team a National Championship contender, it signifies that they likely have already moved on internally from their current head coach.

If we are being real right now, then there is likely nothing he can do to save his job. The writing has been on the wall for a while and the Ducks currently are a mess of epic proportions. Things won’t get any easier this week.

The Ducks are playing the Utah Utes on the road and things will probably not end up well for them. Utah is in a fight for the Pac-12 South and rolling over Oregon and keeping their standing is a top priority this week for them.
