Gary Andersen and the 2017 Coaching Staff: Where Are They Now?

To commemorate a year since his departure, we check in on the former OSU head coach and his counterparts.

NCAA Football: Oregon State at Southern California Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

This past week marked one calendar year since Gary Andersen resigned from his position as the Oregon State Beavers’ head football coach. After Cory Hall finished out the year as the interim head coach, Jonathan Smith was hired as the full-time replacement and what was left of Andersen’s staff went their separate ways.

There are still some hard feelings among sections of the OSU fan base about what happened, so not everybody has kept up with who went were after GA decided to bounce leaving a trail of rambling angry texts in his wake. If you’re curious, we powered up the Google machine and looked up where the staff went off to resume their careers.
