Rick Neuheisel joined me on the Bald Faced Truth radio show (weekdays 12-3p on 102.9-FM) to talk about Oregon State, the Washington-Oregon rivalry and why he's interested in being the Beavers next head coach.

Neuheisel said he missed coaching. Oregon State is without a coach after Gary Andersen and the university mutually parted ways last month.

"I think everybody saw what's possible in the effort they put forth against Stanford," Neuheisel said. "... They need somebody who can recruit the state of California. That has to be first and foremost. They have to go down there and find the guys who Mike Riley and Dennis Erickson got... someone who is going to harvest all that talent."

Is he interested in the OSU job?

"Always."

On the growth of the Oregon Ducks football program over the years:

"If you want to see what Oregon looked like, go back and rent 'Animal House.'"

On how the Pac 12 Network limited distribution affects the conference:

"The stories that are out there on the Pac 12 are great ones. This Khalil Tate story... it's unheard of... Rich Rodriguez is absolutely lighting it up and it's difficult to get that information because of the distribution. Somehow, some way, those stories need to be told... the country needs to understand what's being done."

On what caused Washington's slump between Don James and Chris Petersen:

"I saw that we were falling behind in the arms race that is a reality in college athletics... Oregon clearly took the lead, and you can see by virtue of their success."
