  5. Oregon Lands Commitment From 4-Star WR Messiah Hampton Oregon’s recruiting dry spell ended in a big way on Friday, as the Ducks picked up a commitment from 2026 4-Star Rochester (NY) James Monroe wide receiver Messiah Hampton. Hampton chose the Ducks from a top group that also included Miami, Syracuse, Penn State, Georgia, Ohio State and Michigan. Hampton is the No. 48 player in the On300 rankings, the No. 7 wide receiver and the No. 1 prospect in New York. New wide receivers coach Ross Douglas leaned on his prior relationship with Hampton to land his first commitment since joining Lanning’s staff and the first wide receiver in Oregon’s 2026 recruiting class. With Hampton now in the fold, Oregon’s 2026 recruiting class has climbed back into the top-10 classes nationally, coming in at No. 8 according to On3. The Ducks have eight verbal commitments, headlined by 5-star Reidsville (NC) tight end Kendre Harrison, who has shut down his recruitment and is all-in on the Ducks. On the latest episode of the Ducks Dish Podcast, ScoopDuckOn3’s Max Torres and Justin Hopkins break down Hampton’s commitment and what it means for Oregon Football. They also take a look at what’s next for Douglas at wide receiver in the 2026 class, with more of Oregon’s top targets scheduled to take their official visit with the Ducks before making a summer commitment. 2026 4-star Opa Loka (Fla.) wide receiver Calvin Russell has Oregon in his top group heading into his college commitment date of July 5. 2026 4-Star Lucas (Tex.)

  7. USA takes a look back at what the PO fields would have been with a 16-team, 5-11 format. Big winner? Not the SEC, it's The B1G. Who benefits from College Football Playoff expansion to 16 teams? WWW.USATODAY.COM If College Football Playoff indeed expands to 16 teams, it will become a more attainable destination for three-loss teams from coast to coast. FWIW, I believe the B1G should go with the 5-11 format, IF the SEC plays 9 conference games.
  8. I think it was down to hometown Syracuse and The coach who had been recruiting him for four years very early. Oregon may have been seen as a better route to the NFL.

  16. Ya know, Parity has pushed the SEC aside in the CFP too. The last two years SEC wasn't even in the Natty game, and the Natty went to the B1G! Yes, the Gators did win "March Madness". but football, keep your 8 Games SEC, the B1G will just keep on keeping on.
  17. Among the thousands of CFB preseason prognosticators, Phil Steele is usually the real deal. Phil Steele praises Penn State and projects a title-winning season VICTORYBELLRINGS.COM Phil Steele has high hopes for the Penn State Nittany Lions, and not only in the Big Ten. Whereas Ohio State triumphed to its first College Football Playoff cha Phil is far from the only playoff picker to be high on PSU. Yes, a quality new DC is on board, but isn't it the same old head coach and a pick-throwing QB? Week 5, OBD gets an upfront and personal look at the Nits.
  18. In this CWS, Parity has replaced SEC. Talk of power conferences taking over the College World Series was premature judging by 2025 field APNEWS.COM Six conferences and an independent will be represented at the College World Series. None were among the final eight in Omaha a year ago. The dominant conference would have been the former and real Pac-12. Not the Pac-7 plus Gonzo. Arizona, Oregon State, and UCLA. How did 'THEY' screw 'THIS' up?
  19. Again, the Title IX appeal has not put payments on hold. The Title IX plaintiffs will not be 'irreparably' damaged if revenue sharing payments begin. If the appeal is successful, monetary damages will adequately compensate the plaintiffs (and their lawyers ). 'Clarity' regarding this settlement is akin to 'commitment' in the world of football recruiting. The road ahead after the NCAA settlement comes with risk, reward and warnings APNEWS.COM The annual National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics convention this week included a very hot topic: The $2.8 billion NCAA antitrust settlement.
  20. With his long relationship with Douglas, I'm not too worried about the strength of his commitment.
  21. Not sure how much difference it would make to the number of foul shots but I doubt it would make a noticeable difference since shooting fouls are still two shots and a lot of whistles are blown for those, whenever they are called. It could have an impact at the end of the game with teams more often having to commit more intentional unintentional fouls to get a shot at make the ending closer or grabbing the lead. I never really paid much attention to the women's game in this regard and the NBA has their own version of when foul shots are attempted in the fourth quarter. The NBA doing it is no reason to follow as I don't want the college game looking like what they play. The women have four q''s because we know "they don't have the stamina" to play 20 minute halves.
  22. Hope the young man's 'commitment' holds up; it helps to have a Messiah in the locker room.
  23. Round and round the wheel went and Messiah Hampton stopped it at Oregon. A potential WR1 and a solid guy in the room
  24. The first commitment of the Ross Douglas era is in. 2026 4-star Rochester (NY) James Monroe wide receiver Messiah Hampton has committed to Oregon.

  25. I'm sorry, lame excuse, "The committee realizes there are hurdles to implementing the quarter format to the game, including the structuring of media timeouts to accommodate commercial inventory." Makes zero sense, since the college women use quarters and the WNBA and NBA use quarters. Quarters are way better IMO, simply because of fouls. 20-minute halves can bog down the game because of the amount of FTs.
