West - SoFi, Allegiant Stadium in Vegas, and the renovated Coliseum, with additional remodeling coming before the Olympics. Midwest - Vikings Stadium, Minneapolis, Colts Stadium, Indianapolis, Ford Field, Detroit. But I liked your answer better than mine. 😁

Why on Earth would a departing coach do that?

Where would you have them play in the west? I've been to the Rose Bowl twice. It's an awful place to watch a game because the rake on the stadium seats is too low. You cannot see nearer your seat than the middle of the field regardless of whether the persons in front of you are standing or sitting. Seats are built for the size people were in the 1920's and we're a lot bigger now. Rows are too close together so that a woman passing by you to get to her seat has to rub . . . well, on second thought . . .

The chances are high for the NFL if the Ducks win the Natty. If not??

You must be an optimist. I see it as a bad bad game. One of them is going to win, and that's bad.

The other woman reportedly broke it off with Coach Moore on Monday and notified Michigan. He then sent her several texts and showed up at her house. Threatened his life with butter knives?!

Charles, I agree that it is likely that we will not know Dante's 2065 status until OBD finish their run the playoffs. At the same time I believe it is very unlikely that Dan Lanning will not know.

Problem is....we won't know if Dante is leaving until after the CFB Playoffs, but the portal closes before then and many of the top portal QBs will have already decided. It could put us in a tough spot....

I'll bet Poncho made Bear better in practice, and vice-versa.

This is a "good-or-good" kind of game for me. If the Huskies win? Good for the Big-10, but if Washington loses? Good!

You're correct ther is no guarantee if success in the NFL. But he can prepare the best he can and that's his decision to make. Has he learned everything he realistically can from college ball or not? I'm not answering the question just posing it. I would like for him to come back for another year personally but I also don't have a day in the matter.

Can he learn Moore from the new OC? As well as learn more by playing more reps. What does this QB class look like compared to 2027? I have no doubt NIL $ will be there. Not on the scale of a top-flight NFL draft pick, but if he stays, he will not be on a Ramen Noodles diet. 😁

It does seem as though the locations of the playoff games are largely slanted south and east. Why not have more balance between the coasts?

There might have been an agreement, spoken or unspoken, that Stein and Tosh not take a bunch of assistant coaches and players with them. I don’t recall Lanning doing either when he left Georgia.

$50 million now is better than the potential for a second contract worth $100M+. Invest wisely and he’ll be set for life. It’s more than most of us will earn over the course of our careers.

There is no guarantee that he’ll have success in the NFL, even if he used all of his eligibility though. As much as I’d like, as a Ducks fan, to see him return next year, $40-50 million is a lot to turn down and potentially risk.

How many junior QB's get used up by a bad team and then discard to become a backup or never play again. The best things that could happen to him is to fall in the draft to mid first round and sign with a team that has a chance like Bo. A big rookie contact is great but play the long game and the endorsements and contact extensions will payoff big time. Not to mention not getting thrown to the wolves playing for the Raiders or Browns.

Just ask Mariota, Herbert, and Nix. They all came back and they all improved their NFL life.

I'm sure the NIL will come in and get close enough. The bigger question is that does Dante feel like there is still just to learn and grow from college ball? I think his current NFL evaluation is on his potential. He has a lot of potential. But if he feels like he can develop mentally and in his leadership with another year of college ball then he'll come back. Because if his potential doesn't catch up fast enough for the NFL he'll flame out real fast. Another year of college probably solidifies his NFL career for the long run.

In his first season at ASU, Dilly had it a bit easier than what Will has signed up for: 2 Krispy Kreme cupcakes, Alabama, at A&M, at South Carolina, LSU, at Oklahoma, Vanderbilt, at Tennessee, Florida, at Missouri, and Louisville. Better go hunting for and fill your Stein with, Wild Turkey! 🤪

Players following coaches isn’t an exact science, but doesn’t seem like a mass movement to SEC bottom dwelling Kentucky would be a real thing, be similar to what ASU poached I would think.

And....I have just confirmed that FishDuck.com and the Our Beloved Ducks forum will have two photographers on Rich Brooks Field for our first home Playoff game, and will have former local TV Sports News Anchor Mike Ostrom reporting for us up in the Press Box. Mike is a long-term veteran of advertising and sportswriting, who has set the valley on fire in the past with articles like this one. Whew!
