  8. Great Duck. I always thought his kid would be a Duck but he chose the Bruins instead. Kevin is a beast. Great family of athletes. May Stan rest in peace.
  9. Brock got nearly three times that amount last year in signing bonus and Ladd's signing bonus at the top of the second round was also higher than Beck's reported NIL. But many of the guys drafted in rounds 5-7 can only dream about making the money next year that Carson Beck will pocket. One such player is Quinn Ewers. Had he opted for the portal rather than the NFL draft, He'd have made at least three times as much actually playing football for a good college team than he will as a 7th round draftee carrying a clipboard on an NFL sideline and maybe hoping for some mop-up duty in a blowout. Jon what say you about the likely House settlement? Do you believe this will bring some sanity to NIL payouts?
  10. I stated going into the UCLA series that up to that time...for every team we played....we were the hunted, the ranked team they wanted to beat, and everybody raised their game when they played us. I was hoping that facing a higher set of ranked teams in No. 10 UCLA and No. 3 Oregon State, that we were now the hunter--and it would inspire our best efforts which would not only win games, but allow the team to see their true upside. And THAT is what happened!
  11. I think it is difficult to judge QBs when personnel are divided between two different offenses. It takes time for a starting QB to get in sync with the starters, much less players that will probably be on the sidelines most games. To me, It looks like our defense will be formidable, and the offense will need game time to gel. As far as slipping on the turf, I think some players are amped up and trying to defy physics. These guys are strong and fast, and want to show they belong. With more playing time those slips will diminish.
  12. Now that was an excellent weekend of baseball! Super excited for this team to go out and be able to adapt to the game. They played small ball when needed and then they went on a huge run of consistent batting to mass a 13-1 pummeling in game 2. Followed by another pitching duel in game 3. The Ducks held the Beavs to 5 runs in 3 games while they racked up 20 runs. This is a testament to some excellent pitching, feilding, batting and base running, played 3 complete game with few to little errors. Can't forget to mention the coaching. The biggest difference in the 2 close games was game strategy and the manufacturing points off of minimal hints with minimal base runners. Every part of this team was firing on all cylinders this weekend. Now go out there and do the same on Tuesday.
  13. Most entertaining spring game since Marcus’ coming out party imo. Feels like we have 4 good QBs, but it’s always fun to watch people fall in love with the backup(s). I left the game feeling like we had a pretty clear #1 based upon upside and clear arm talent. Not trying to knock Novasad, as I think we’d do great with him, but he was 5 of 9 with the bulk of his numbers coming on one pass. I’m not drawing any conclusion from that. I’ll be surprised if we don’t lose him though, he seems very capable of being a starter on a top-20 team. My biggest takeaway is that it would be shocking to not win at least 10 games. The offense will do Oregon things no matter who is at QB, and I think the D will be as good as ever.

  15. A brutal day for golf on the Baltimore Country Club course that was designed by noted golf architect A.W. Tillinghast and opened in 1898. Tillinghast was involved in the design of 256 golf courses, including US Open tracks Winged Foot, Bethpage Black, and Winged Foot in New York, and Oakland Hills in Michigan. Closer to Eugene, AW designed the Lake Merced, Presidio, and San Francisco Golf, Stanford Golf Course, and the original Monterey Peninsula golf course. courses. Today, 35 mph plus wind gusts made the course close to unplayable. Play was stopped for a few hours on Saturday due to the wind that made it impossible to mark a moving ball on the green. UCLA's Omar Morales at 7 under won the individual title. OBD's Grayson Leach finished 2nd at 4 under. Gutty effort by Leach, who shot even par, on a day when Leach and Morales were the only golfers to shoot par or better. UCLA Men’s Golf Wins First Big Ten Championship BIGTEN.ORG UCLA Men’s Golf Wins First Big Ten Championship Make no mistake, this was UCLA's first attempt to win the title as a B1G member. This was not the first Big Ten's first Men's Golf Championship. The first Big Ten Golf Championship was played in 1920.
  16. Sweep! Ducks Beat Beavers Again on Sunday EUGENE, Ore. — Oregon baseball has been searching for some consistency. For three days, at least, the Ducks found it, with historic results. The UO baseball team completed a sweep against a top-three opponent for the first time Sunday, with the No. 13 Ducks beating No. 3 Oregon State, 3-2, before the third consecutive sellout crowd at PK Park. Oregon came into the weekend playing .500 baseball over its previous 14 games, but finished off its first sweep of OSU since 2021. “It's huge,” said UO senior first baseman Jacob Walsh, who homered in all three games. “I think it shows everyone how good we really are. It's a good weekend to start building off of going into the end of the season.” The Ducks (30-12) came from behind Sunday, with Maddox Molony driving in a run after Walsh’s fourth-inning homer to make it 2-1, before Molony’s second homer in as many days provided much-needed insurance in the sixth. That made a winner of Jason Reitz (2-0), and Santiago Garcia earned his second save as the UO bullpen got the last six outs after OSU made it a one-run game again. “That's a good team that we played, and we were able to win today and get a couple more on the weekend to beat a good team,” UO coach Mark Wasikowski said. “So, yeah, I think that was probably good for our guys to be able to see that and see that we can win a lot of different ways.” Jason Reitz How It Happened: After Reitz faced the minimum in the top of the first, the Ducks struck out three times in the bottom of the inning against OSU starter Ethan Kleinschmit — kicking off a game in which Oregon struck out 17 times. But as Wasikowski said, they found a way regardless. Reitz temporarily lost command with two outs in the second, walking four straight batters as the Beavers took a 1-0 lead. Wasikowski said the coaching staff was considering a pitching change to start the third, but Reitz lobbied to stay in the game, and UO pitching allowed a lone solo home run the rest of the way. “I’m so proud of the guys,” said Reitz, who allowed only one hit and the one run over five innings. “It was so fun to be around, and I think that's a really good step for us. Everyone came in with the mentality of just getting after it and not backing down from anyone.” The Ducks were hitless with seven strikeouts through three innings. That all changed in the fourth, when Walsh ambushed the first pitch of the inning for his UO-record 54th career homer. “I got that one pretty good,” he said. “That was a nice one.” Oregon continued to take advantage of opportunities on the basepaths, as Drew Smith followed Walsh’s homer with a walk, was bunted to second and stole third. Molony then gave Oregon the lead with an RBI single to center. Santiago Garcia celebrates his final strike vs. Oregon State Ian Umlandt replaced Reitz to start the sixth and pitching around a leadoff single. Molony made it 3-1 in the bottom of the inning, with a two-out homer in an inning when Kleinschmit struck out three more Ducks. Umlandt left after a leadoff homer in the eighth, and Cole Stokes came on to preserve the 3-2 lead. Seth Mattox and Garcia combined to pitch the ninth, in front of a jubilant PK Park crowd that produced so much noise Garcia had to step off the mound at one point because he couldn’t hear the pitch call in his ear. “It’s awesome,” Garcia said of pitching in that atmosphere. “Man, coming from JUCO with like 24 people watching us and going straight to here, it was pretty good.” Garcia entered with one out and a runner on second before retiring the side, striking out the final hitter of the game. Up Next: The Ducks play at Oregon State on Tuesday (5:30 p.m., Pac-12 Insider).
  17. Yesterday
  18. By the way, The Ducks defeated & swept the Hoosiers, and NOT the Utes! VR, KCDuck1
  19. I wanted to say incredible, except that conveys a sense of surprise and disbelief, and what the Oregon softball team is in 2025 is completely real.
  20. So many stars, my game ball today though goes to Oregon SS, Maddox Molony 3-3 1R, 2 RBI, 3-3 stolen bases and as usual, great fielding.
  21. Ducks finish fourth, but another former Pac-12 team wins it in UCLA!
  22. Oregon Wins 3-2 over Oregon State for the first sweep of a top three team EVER in program history! Seth Mattox came out to the hill for the Ducks, and gave up a double on the first batter, and then Santiago Garcia came in and put Beavis away. The last batter was a very dramatic strike-out, and the crowd went nuts. What a win! More coming!
  23. Staci Chambers delivering under pressure bodes well for the team as it moves towards trophy time. Filling a role that’s been reserved for Grein and Sokolsky could offer the two starters some relief when things start to heat up. The slow but steady growth of her program is well displayed by how Lombardi is now beginning to attract and develop good transfers pitchers into some of the best in college softball. Finding that culture identity fit with Oregon like she had at Oklahoma (where for 21 years she was in charge of pitcher development) hopefully will translate into top drawer recruits taking a closer look.
  24. 3-2 Ducks after eight innings, as Umlandt gave up a homer to Beavis, and Cole Stokes blew his 97 mph stuff for Oregon to close the side. Ducks strand two on base at the end of the eighth....we need three more outs!
  25. My next day thoughts. The passing offense will be ridiculous. Moga as a periodic wildcat could be lethal. By the fall, the D should be Lanning’s best. 54 yard field goals? Yes please! Many Ducklings look impact ready right now. PS I will never get tired of seeing Rich Brooks being honored on his own damn field!
  26. 3-1 Ducks after seven innings, as Oregon's Ian Umlandt stopped the Beavis scoring threat again... Oregon really has great fielding, as Anson Aroz makes a diving catch to rob a base hit!
  27. 3-1 Ducks after six innings, as The Pride of Sherwood Oregon, Ian Umlandt, kept Beavis scoreless in the inning, while the Pride of Springfield, Maddox Molony, crushed a pitch to Oregon State bullpen to add another score! Think the Civil War games mean something to in-state players?
