Potential RUTS Bombshell! Coach Gump reportedly meets with Oregon boosters, trustees about head coaching position

In shocking developments this afternoon, Yahoo Sports is reporting that current Oklahoma Head Football Coach Gump, just days removed from his team's victory over #3 Texas, was seen boarding a University of Oregon private jet at the Norman (Okla) Municipal Airport.

What's even more shocking is this all happened while the #5 Ducks team and their current head Coach StuBucksman are in L.A. preparing to take on the #6 USC Trojans tonight in the LA Coliseum.

Rumors have been flying from coast to coast that Oregon trustees and their notorious booster Phil Knight have been advocating for Coach Stu to be fired because of the damage he's caused the program due to the Curse of the Duck. However, none of those rumors have been substantiated until now.

Reporters have called this week's game a "must-win" for Coach Stu, and even though his Ducks reeled in the nation's #1 ranked recruiting class last season, and sit at #1 in the recruiting rankings through week 6, he's undoubtedly on the hot seat.

The question is, why would Oregon fly Coach Gump into Eugene while the Ducks team and their mustached-coach were away?

Yahoo Sports' Dan Wetzel says: "This is something, according to my sources, that Phil Knight and the Oregon administration have been planning for a long time. To bring Gump in to tour Eugene, go house hunting, mingle with the co-eds, while Coach Stu and his team were on a road trip. The Ducks just didn;t count on us getting photo evidence of the trip."

Wetzel continues: "Not since the Auburn "Jetgate" scandal with Bobby Petrino has there been this kind of activity to go behind the scenes to interview a coach while another coach has the job. The Curse of the Duck is obviously weighing heavily on this administration. What if Oregon beats USC this week? They could be controlling their own destiny for a BCS title birth...and their administration is working behind the scenes to terminate their coach? Preposterous!"

Who knows how this will shake out. Coach Stu had no comment when confronted at the Ducks team hotel in the citaaay, city of Compton. And, we wonder how this will affect the Sooner team, knowing that their head coach either wants out of Norman or is shopping around for a pay raise.
