Bellotti twice took the Ducks to within reach of a national championship. His 2001 team was cheated out of a chance to play for the title by the head-scratching permutations of the BCS. His 2007 team appeared to be headed for the title game before quarterback Dennis Dixon's season-ending knee injury.
He hired virtually all of the current UO football program's coaches and support staff, and recruited most of the players.

If Bellotti wants to coach, I think he can do better than Colorado. The Buffaloes' glory years are in the rearview mirror. They haven't had a 10-win season since the 2001 team that Bellotti's Ducks pounded in the Fiesta Bowl. They last finished with a winning record in 2005.
The Buffs are an afterthought in the Denver market, which is dominated by professional sports. They are cash-poor.
It will take time, patience and a commitment from the administration for Colorado to successfully rebuild.
