Very cool, and great article!

NICE. Voted on by Peers. Dan Lanning Wows Peers, Wins Prestigious Stallings Award For Humanitarianism WWW.SI.COM DALLAS - Oregon Ducks coach Dan Lanning beamed with pride and gratitude as he received the prestigious Stallings Award for humanitarianism at the Dallas Country

Thanks, as I noticed last year that the left side of the offensive line was doing a great job of sealing the defense to the inside when running outside. But those were veterans, and now when I see RS Freshmen employing this technique? It means that Coach Terry is implementing this adjustment from the beginning now with all offensive linemen. For those who have not watched...the videos are very short, and it is an easy, short read! Now THAT is a running lane!

"Great defensive play" from Garate and Walsh is happening every game now, and Aroz slamming homers, along with the leading home run hitter in the country, Mason Neville! Drew Smith, Mr. Consistency.

They sure would! If Sarr is at all comparable to Ant-Man, I don't understand how, why, Duke or Kentucky haven't wrapped him up. If the Ducks had had a player that could get to the rim like he can last season...

CONCERNING? Oregon 2026 recruiting woes should NOT raise major concerns. In Dan Lanning we trust!

The Ducks have an advantage in my mind. Any 5 star offensive tackle should see playing time immediately. Just being a homer I guess.

The Big 12 is one of the most intriguing leagues in CFB. Texas Tech is spending like a B1G or SEC member so they've become a trendy pick. But would it shock anybody if any team emerged to grab a CFP spot? ASU lost to tenth place Cincy last year. As far as Florida goes I'm not in a position to objectively predict where they finish, it's one of the reasons I refuse to ever put them higher. If DJ Lagway is even half as good they are a playoff team. He went 6-1 in his starts and the loss was in a game where he went out while Florida was winning. If this was baseball he wouldn't take the L for a lost lead.

Thanks Mr. FishDuck for the analysis. Wow!..That is some amazing blocking with a hat on a hat and the red sea parting. Thanks for providing the video. Running backs love running behind an awesome line! Kudos to Coach Terry.

Neville Homers Again, Ducks Pick Up Midweek Win EUGENE, Ore. — Mason Neville hit his nation’s best 24th home run and Anson Aroz added a three-run shot, while Ian Umlandt had a stellar outing out of the bullpen to lead No. 5 Oregon to a 6-3 nonconference win over Saint Mary’s on Tuesday at PK Park. Umlandt (5-1) inherited a one-run lead when he came out of the pen to start the second inning and proceeded to allow just one run on five hits over 6.2 innings of work to pick up the win. Umlandt relieved Oregon starter Toby Twist who was on a limited pitch count in his first game back on the mound after missing most of last season as well as Oregon’s first 46 games this season while recovering from an injury. How It Happened: Saint Mary’s (26-21) scored a pair of runs in the top of the first, but Oregon (34-13) rallied in its half of the inning scoring three. Freshman catcher Coen Niclai doubled with one out before moving to third and Drew Smith walked to put runners on the corners. Aroz followed with a three-run home run, his third homer in the last three games. Oregon added to the lead in the third when Neville launched a solo homer over the right-field wall for a 4-2 lead. Mason Neville SMC cut the lead to one with a fourth-inning run, but Oregon tacked on two runs of its own in the bottom of the sixth. After loading the bases with two walks and a hit-by-pitch, Carter Garate picked up an RBI with a fielder’s choice and Neville added his second run batted in with a sacrifice fly for a 6-3 lead. Cole Stokes and Santiago Garcia combined to get the last four outs in the win. Stokes got a ground out with runners on first and second to end the eighth. Garcia picked up the save tossing a scoreless ninth. Box Score Notes: Drew Smith made his 100th career start at Oregon, but just his first in center field … Twist made his first appearance on the mound since March 9, 2024, when he went 4.0 innings at Arizona State … Oregon’s two home runs gives the Ducks 90 on the season … Aroz slugged his 14th long of the season, moving him into a tie for ninth on Oregon’s single-season home run list … Neville had his 15th multiple-RBI game of the season and the 26th of his career … He moved into a tie for ninth on the Oregon single-season multiple-RBI list … Aroz had his 14th multi-RBI game of the year and the 21st of his career … Umlandt’s win was the 10th of his career … Garcia picked up his third save of the season. On Deck: Oregon and Saint Mary’s wrap up the two-game series on Wednesday with a 6:05 p.m. first pitch (B1G+). Quotes: Head Coach Mark Wasikowski On overall performance... “Tremendous defense by Carter Garate. Had some clutch swings by Mason Neville, another home run and a sacrifice fly was tremendous. There were some good situational type at-bats. I thought the bullpen was really good, to be able to go to Cole Stokes and Santiago Garcia after Ian Umlandt did his job. Great to have the lefty out there too, Toby Twist getting the ball for the first time after an injury. Getting him back in the mix is going to be really helpful moving down the stretch.” On rotation in starting lineup... “Coen Niclai did a nice job behind the plate. He got a good swing off early in the game for a double. I think he scored later after that. Parker Stinson played well when we were at Michigan State. He had three at-bats, two of them were really good so we wanted to see a little bit more of him. All those guys are interchangeable, but Drew Smith is fast. He can run the ball down, and he’s just been a really good player for us.” On defensive performance... “It’s tremendous. You have to keep the runs off the board too. Carter Garate did that at the end of the game. Jacob Walsh did that too, to be able to go with the 3U on their best hitter, Eddie Madrigal, that was huge. Walsh is so good over at first base. The defense was spot on tonight.” Ian Umlandt Ian Umlandt On meaning of performance… “It means a lot, but I just try to enjoy every day that I get an opportunity to get the ball. We talk a lot about perspective. And so, there’s a lot of people who would give up a lot to be in the position that both me, individually, and us as a team are in. And so, just the true enjoyment of the opportunity and being on that day is something that I try to focus on. And being present, obviously, out there at all times. But other than that, it’s just finding the enjoyment every day, whether it’s practice or a game. That’s something that I’ve really tried to buy into, and I feel like it’s helped me become a better pitcher and also a better human.” On flexibility in role within the pitching staff… “It’s been different here and there each week. Starting a midweek, coming in on a weekend, pitching out of the pen on a Friday, so, it’s been different. Last year I didn’t pitch a whole lot, but I made four midweek starts. That was my year. So, this year having so many different roles, it’s been fun. It’s also difficult at times, trying to balance the body and the workload and the life of a reliever and also the life of a starter. I knew I had the game after [Toby] Twist was done, so that was nice. But just like I told Brady, just the opportunity and just having a true enjoyment of that, being grateful that it’s an opportunity and just trying my best to run with it.” Mason Neville On confidence in the outfield... “We work our tails off day in and day out and we’ve had some different guys out there since the fall, just getting work out there. We’re athletes at the end of the day and so I have total confidence in anyone really to go out there. Walsh played a great left field last weekend, Drew out in center now, Anson, I mean anybody can go out there and get the job done. We do a really good job with our outfield here.” On role as designated hitter... “It’s definitely a mindset kind of flip. A lot of times if you have a bad at bat you can out to the outfield and focus on defense and it helps kind of flushing it out. So maybe just getting your mind off it for a little bit and just talking to a coach or someone on the bench, I feel like that's beneficial. But just staying locked in on hitting, really just doing whatever I can to help the team win.” Toby Twist On Toby Twist’s return from injury... “We’re pumped for him. He’s an absolute beast and to get him back when we really need him is huge. Whatever he throws out there we know he’s going to do what he does. He has tons of support, and we were pumped to see him back out there.” Anson Aroz On a competitive first inning... “We had a lot of guys running into the dugout after that first half inning just saying, win the inning. So, they score two, you score three or more. To have the opportunity to do it was huge. Not that I was making an attempt to do it in one swing, but getting runners on, we had guys ready to score.” On having guys ready to play anywhere at anytime... “We’ve got guys that are ready to go when their names are called, bunch of good athletes out there, and guys that are willing to put in the effort once that game is going. So, whoever it is, Drew Smith, he's stepping up and playing a really solid outfield for us and just being that utility player that we really need, as well as those other guys. Jeffrey Heard picking up late innings. We’re missing a guy like Mason, Parker Stinson running out there. It is pretty interchangeable. I think that goes back to our work and the trust Waz has in us that we have in the end.”

Mama liked Oregon but definitely wanted him in Athens where OC Mike Bobo had forged a special relationship with the Curtis family.

Sarr sounds like ex-Dawg Anthony Ant-Man Edwards of the T-Wolves. Ant has much improved his outside shooting and is unstoppable going to the hoop if there is the slightest crease in the defense. Routinely jams over 7-footers. He reclassified to get to college early and was the #1 overall pick of the NBA Draft at the end of his one-and-done year. He's still a baby who, I believe, would still have been a college senior this year had he stayed in school. If Sarr is at all comparable, the Ducks sure as h-ll want him.

Ducks win 6-3, as Santiago Garcia finishes it off with a massive curve ball for strike three on the St. Mary's batter. Before that...a crushed high, line-drive was caught by Jacob Walsh at the top of his jumping radius. Because it was a hit-and-run...the runner was nearly at second, so all Walsh had to do was walk over and touch first base for the double play. If he had not caught that ball headed for the corner... incredible play!

6-3 Ducks after eight innings, as Cole Stokes came in after two outs, plinked a batter, and then got the out. Three more outs!

6-3 Ducks after seven innings! Ian Umlandt has been a rock star, as the Gaels cannot hit him with any consistency.

6-3 Ducks after six innings, as Ian Umlandt put them down 1-2-3, and I hope he can go longer. Meanwhile the St. Mary's pitcher lost control and walked Maddox Molony and Parker Stinson. Then he plinked Ryan Cooney, so we had Ducks-on-the-Pond, (bases loaded) with no outs. I like how we sacrificed a grounder and a fly to score two!

4-3 Ducks after five innings, still.

4-3 Ducks after four innings. St. Mary’s got a double from the first batter, and sacrificed him in with a grounder to right, and a deep fly.
