Our Oregon football program had some massive turnover in this offseason at key positions. Usually, that’d leave most programs in a spot to rebuild, but head coach Dan Lanning has continued to do such an outstanding job recruiting year round that the Ducks are virtually always ready to reload. Even our own Mr. FishDuck took a break from his gaming fun at Slotozen to ... Read More Source Read the full article here...

The next championship-caliber football team that

All three of them have some talented WR’s to throw to. None of them are going into bad situations offensively. Sure, Moore has a new OL and he loses Stewart for the season, but DL didn’t leave him with a bare cupboard. I remember thinking Bo was a bust because he wasn’t really all that good at Auburn. Then he got to Oregon with Troy, Ferguson and Tez and became a first round draft pick. Being talented is one thing, but QB’s need to have good talent on the other end of their throws.

Jabba, "Great Post" wasn't sufficient for yours! Nobody is calling Minnesota elite, what about Pitt? Yale? Oregon burst on the scene with Joey H and being screwed by the computer into missing the chance to play Miami. Oregon is elite, it wouldn't have mattered if Dyer was down if Chip had gotten out of his own way, and 2007? Only the Women's 2020 Basketball team was a more sure thing. Oregon is elite. From the Duck to the uniforms, the facilities, Oregon is always in the discussion, right up to, " need to win a Natty" U-Dub has a Natty, outside of Mountlake, no discussion of elite has included them in a long time.

IMO we’re elite whether we like it or not, but no title is an albatross. Minnesota has 6 titles in football, Harvard has 8, etc. Nobody is confusing them with anything good. I’ll take it a step farther, nobody (outside fans of the team) is overly impressed with teams that were voted in as a champion…that impresses people as much as when we tell them we have a hoops title from 1939. An anecdote from ancient history. Take that UW! That time of year to post a pic of the school with the most titles (18) in college football history!

Oregon has just now entered rarified air with the highest percentage recruits in these past few recruiting cycles. #4 average percentage for 2024, #1 for 2025, and currently #1 for 2026. Everyone has their own rankings and some claim to be better, but the reality is Oregon is compiling a, top of the line, roster. It takes 3-4 years to bring it all together. An above average QB can win it all with a stellar line, a solid RB, an above average receiver or two and top tier line with everyone knowing how to block. Then have nearly equal 2nd string to back them up. It's lining up to be this year or next year. I'm going with next year. But, surprise me and make me a happy man come January!

I think being consistently ranked in the top-10 is elite, and most fans would agree with it. Now, are we a "Blue-Blood?" No, winning a 'Natty or two will generate that title, but not until then. And BTW...you have to be consistently in the top-10, and we have not been until recently. Top recruiting with a Blue-Chip ratio at 78% will keep us that way, IMHO.

No mention of the USC endowment of 8+ Billion dollars. Apparently they are going to try to actually balance their budget like the rest of us have to do.

The author is trying too hard to draw eyeballs by mentioning football. Until their football program starts to lose money big like our fellow in-state rodents, I don't think USC will think about touching it at all.

I feel like the roles of the two teams were also flipped compared to when we played them two years ago. in 2016 we were the undisciplined team that was all about flash and then the wheels fell off. In 2023 they were all the college football world was talking about until they stepped into Autzen...

Too early to worry. Sayin, Moore, Manning and others have yet to play much ball. Players gotta play. Some of these media outlets use false hope or fear as click bait. Sayin finished the spring with a strong scrimmage game.

I think Helfrich did a great job with QBs. He found and coached Mariota for his first two seasons. He coached Darron Thomas who has a great red shirt freshman season. Scott Frost, Helfrich's OC and QB coach, I feel came up short on developing new college QBs. He could polish a QB... See Mariota and Adams but both were already very good QBs who knew the basics. But when it came to taking raw talent and elevating it... That just never happened. A couple four stars were brought in and left without ever developing. That shows a lack of introductory development. Helfrich as a QB coach didna great job on that front. Though he probably needed to have more say in the development of the young QBs brought in.

Signing players does not make one elite. Winning games and a Natty or two makes one elite.

I will remember Mark Helfrich as the guy who recruited and coached Oregon’s first (and so far only)Heisman Trophy winner. Mariota attended an Oregon football camp in the summer of 2010, which allowed Mark Helfrich, Oregon's then offensive coordinator, to be one of the first recruiters to discover Mariota.[8]After the camp, Helfrich visited Mariota in Hawaii to watch the somewhat unrecognized quarterback practice going into his senior season.[17] Helfrich called Chip Kelly during the visit and they made the decision to immediately offer Mariota a scholarship, despite never starting a varsity game.[17]

Ever since playing for a national champion instead of voting for one, the system has clearly been slanted in the SEC direction. Start with only 8 conference games. Add in preseason biased rankings and top with ESPN being conference broadcasting and very unclear committee voting, you get a definite SEC advantage. When Natty's were voted on more conferences won more frequently. Now that everyone can throw $$ around, it should make it more difficult for the SEC to win it all. Until every conference plays same number of games in conference, the SEC will get the preseason ranking advantage. Got to admit, reading about their 'panic' is hysterical.

“The SEC is different. The Big Ten, you’ve just got your big three: Michigan, Ohio State, Oregon. That’s it. Penn State? They’re mediocre.”

“Even being an SEC guy, the Big Ten keeps getting better and better,” said Jordan Rodgers, a former Vanderbilt quarterback and now a college football analyst.

Jon...just know your word-play is great fun and I enjoy it!

Interesting to see how fan attitudes in the SEC are turning to panic. https://www.wsj.com/sports/football/sec-college-football-panic-860533f4?st=HrBfWt&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink
