Let’s Talk About the Ducks’ New Defensive Position
I'm not going to tell you that I know for sure. But as a former collegiate (Div 3) footballer, I think so. I believe that OBD have instructed the LBs to line up wider (more over the tackles) and have the third safety 6-7 yds deep in the middle. I believe this formation helps creates confusion with the OL on who to block. The OL are often taught to look for the LBS and the safety (who is a little farther from the LOS than most OL are comfortable) is then free to attach the LOS and make a tackle in run support. My $0.02. Your mileage may vary.

Cool look. Is this changing how the Ducks use the "star" position? It was my understanding that they were using a safety as a hybrid safety and linebacker.

Let’s Talk About the Ducks’ New Defensive Position
Playing a safety up closer to the box, (in the middle) allows Dillion Thieneman to crash in run-support, and yet help out in the mid-zones in pass defense. It makes sense against a run-heavy B1G conference, and we had it implemented on us in the Rose Bowl...so we know it works! It morphs into a Tampa-2 kind of defense for passes, but I think it takes a very savvy safety, (such as Dillon) to make this work. Although...I believe Kingston Lopa was playing this spot in relief, and he sure brought the wood on some running plays. Thanks for pointing this our Eric, and we look forward to more of your thoughts on this and other elements of the team! Kingston Lopa

Oregon Recruiting Going the MOST Distance of Any Big-10 School?
What is remarkable to me is how nearly two-thirds of the conference only have recruits travel only a third or half as much. We have a tall disadvantage to overcome, as prior coaches knew, but Lanning and his staff overcome these barriers.

Oregon Recruiting Going the MOST Distance of Any Big-10 School?
One of the things I think is most telling isn't just that Oregon will go anywhere to get guys, which they will. The State of Oregon doesn't have much talent but the Ducks do put their own fence up around the state and do take whatever top talent the state produces though often as walk-ons now (Which is crazy!). Washington and California both have bigger talent pools and Oregon happily raids both now but between the three west coast states there isn't enough talent to win a national championship. So going elsewhere is required. And this little chart is telling because the last two National Champions, Ohio State and Michigan, are both exceeding 700 miles. Both are far more centrally located within the country, as Oregon is on the far left coast, but Ohio State and Michigan know there isn't enough talent in their backyards to win it all and have to go elsewhere. Oregon is frequently competing with both of those schools for recruits and the fact that we are winning on the recruiting trail means Lanning is doing it right.

Let’s Talk About the Ducks’ New Defensive Position
Have to give our DL credit for allowing us to have different personnel packages at DB. Take a great athlete, and use their intelligence, and abilities, to wreak havoc. I will go back a few years and say a player like Troy Dye would probably have excelled in the position. A thorough knowledge of the opposing offense, good sideline to sideline speed, great tackler, and was a cruise missile coming up to stop the run.

Let’s Talk About the Ducks’ New Defensive Position
A lot of you have probably seen that Oregon has implemented a new — to them — defensive position this year. I’ve heard it called a Rover, and I’m sure Oregon has their own name for it, but it is a third safety playing as a deep middle linebacker. It’s a Jim Knowles staple. Probably something Oregon picked up on last season, and something they may see in a couple of weeks.
