Looks to be between 9 and 11 mil to me to get this up and running.

Unless Oregon throws money to the basketball program like they do the football program, they will be small potatoes. But as the article states, even blue bloods like Kentucky, (22 million) doesn't guarantee a trip to the final four. Coaching, chemistry, an injury free season all play a part of it. Signing players outside the power four conferences and power four bench warmers isn't going to cut it. What's needed is two studs and three very good players for the starting five and a deep bench (four players) to take it to the next level.

Oregon Ducks On SIOregon Ducks Make Major Strides for Five-Star Defensive L...The Oregon Ducks recently hosted talented defensive line recruit Marcus Fakatou in Eugene, and his reaction after the trip suggests that Oregon coach Dan LanninScouting report per 24/7: -Rugged defensive lineman with a sky-scraping frame and a wide base that wins primarily with effort and energy. -Has gotten snaps out of a variety of different alignments, but is frequently featured as a 5-technique in a four-man front where he powers his way into the backfield with his raw strength. -More of a one-speed mover that lacks the desired tempo as a rusher, but can build momentum and make stops in pursuit. -Disengages from blockers with a long arm and will find ways to split double teams, but needs to get better at holding his ground and stuffing gaps. -Likely to kick inside at the next level, but could settle in as a 4i in an odd front as that would allow him to read, react and create up-field push. -Unique background as he grew up in Alaska, but projects as a potential impact player at the Power Four level with his physical features.

Oregon RBs Davison, Hill looking to grow beyond ‘pure talent’You could make an argument that the Oregon Ducks have the best running back duo in the Big Ten heading into the 2026 season. Despite losing three running backs to the transfer portal this offseason and Noah Whittington to the NFL Draft, the Ducks have reloaded the depth in the room, but their star freshmen from last season will carry the torch and lead the way this fall. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/04/02/oregon-ducks-football-dierre-hill-jordon-davison-rashaad-samples/89443423007/

I have not followed college basketball even remotely as much as football. It's usually the 2nd largest source of income behind football for most athletic programs...what does a typical NIL budget look like for NCAABB top 10 or top 20 teams nowadays?

I would swap the Washington and USC positions in the level of difficulty.

Michigan run-rules Oregon 10-0 to take the first game of the series.

There is an interesting column today in The Athletic about UConn coach Geno Auriemma and how much emphasis he places on body language affecting how well individual players play and what he does about it. To the point of sitting his "stars" whom he assesses "aren't into it." And, making body language a part of his video game replay with his team. It's a pay-for site, so won't post a link. But, Charles comment about body language made me think of it.

10-0 Michigan after six innings. I was afraid it would get ugly...and it has. True Freshman Josh Hollis gave up two walks, and a couple hits to score three more. Meanwhile the Ducks look inept on offense. Perhaps a Run-Rule would be merciful?

7-0 Michigan after five innings. It's awful, but at least Josh Hollis is getting some good experience and some outs.

7-0 Michigan after four innings. We look so flat...and thus nothing on offense again? Oregon put Josh Hollis in to pitch, which to me is waving a white flag. Waz is either saving Bradley for another game, or pulling him because he did not like what what he saw of Tanner's pitching. So Hollis gives up a hit that scores another... My Duck-Buddies, the body language I see from OBD is not good, and this one is about to get ugly. So I will be posting scoring a little later than usual, as I have other stuff to do too.

6-0 Michigan after three innings. Nothing on offense. Will Sanford lost control today and was replaced with two outs gone. He plinked a batter, and walked three, as a grounder scored one. Then he gave up a base hit that scored two. Then Tanner Bradley gives up a hit that scores two...
