I'm an old guy. When I was a kid, the only visualizations I ever had of the Ducks' uniforms was black and white newspaper photos One of the things I remember vividly was my first visit to an actual Oregon game in 1963 and how the bright green and yellow jumped out at me. It was like electricity. I think the Ducks should wear some combination of green and yellow every week. They're the only team in the Big 10 with those colors. When they wear them, people notice. I remember Booger McFarland commenting favorably on a green and yellow kit the team wore one Saturday. It is truly electric and needs no enhancement. I would mention uniform colors I don't like, but for the Men (and Women!) of Oregon, nothing will ever beat green and yellow. It pops. No sense in trying any harder than that.

Great clips from the early days of ESPN have Beano screaming: "Where in the hell is Fowler!" The Fowler he called for was a young intern out of CU, Chris Fowler. Chris went on to have a pretty good career with ESPN. Beano's love for Notre Dame was right there with Lou 'Granny' Holtz. The Courtroom skits with Holtz and Mark May in front of Judge Rece Davis were terrific. Rece is another guy who has done well at E$PN.

I think Beano couldn't make the decision that Lee did. There are clips or him in the 80's where he talks about people complaining about there being too many bowls. Can you imagine how he'd handle the playoffs and NIL issues?

Best mascot in the game imo. Back in the seventies or eighties there was talk to have a live Gator be at football games. Luckily for UGA that idea never produced anything. As we saw in the 2018 Sugar Bowl vs Texas when Bevo acted like a Bull meeting a Bulldog played out. Luckily UGA wasn't hurt, the same couldn't be said about the team that day.

Holtz and May were fun, Beano was rarely coherent.

Lee is still good for a few good quips here and there. Older guys tell the best stories, and I've come to appreciate even the smallest bits of it. I remember the days of Lou Holtz battling that guy Mark May, and Beano Cook not understanding Colin Cowherd when he asked him if Beano was going to enjoy the Super Salad. Beano took it as Colin asking if he liked Soup or Salad better.

I'm sure they're quite content, much more than their hyena or arachnid counterpart.

We know who Corso's favorite really is.

Congratulations!

The NCAA, and the defendant conferences, should have filed bankrutcy and arrived at a long term solution. The House settlement stabalizes nothing. Baker: Settlement helps NCAA stabilize, avoid 'bankruptcy' - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM NCAA president Charlie Baker framed the multi-billion dollar House settlement agreement as one that provides stability to college athletics and avoids "bankruptcy." 'Market value' in the world of capitalism is what someone or some entity is willing to pay you. The House settlement simply means more billable hours for the sharks, er, lawyers. OBD is a member of the group that just agreed to pay $500 million plus to the plaintiff's attorneys and also paid its share of the cost of defending the litigation. House settles with three groups of plaintiffs and that's it. Existing litigation against the NCAA, like Reggie Bush vs. the NCAA, continues and will be added to by the new suits post-House.

Joel Klatt names surprise team as Penn State's most important game this season “If Penn State loses that game [at home versus Oregon], all anyone is going to be talking about is that James Franklin can’t win these games, because that’s the slow-boiling narrative going into the season,” Klatt said. “… He’s got to win that game. “If you don’t beat Oregon, at home, in the White Out, you’re like ‘Oh no, is this going to work?’ Again, it’s time. You don’t want to put that on your shoulders in November in the ‘Shoe at Ohio State.” Klatt also talked about how the talent disparity is razor thin between these teams, and highlighted the strong, veteran group of Nittany Lions returners that should give Franklin a good chance of earning a marquee victory over the Ducks.

Yep, Pepsi thought New Coke was a great idea.

I'm glad that Lanning is the coach at Oregon and that he has Kirby and Saban for mentors, and his coaching tree is already looking good with Dilly at ASU.

I think it was a given this was going to happen at some point. But I think they needed to wait a (minimum?) of 10 years before they could do it. I want to say LaMachael James was about 10 years removed from his time at Oregon before he was inDUCKted into the Oregon all of fame as well. Regardless, this is a big honor and well deserved for Mariota. I still love going back and watching those games, he ran that offense so beautifully.

College football's top RB rooms: Penn State, Notre Dame battle for top spot behind loaded backfields Several national title contenders boast impressive stables of running backs heading into 2025 3. Oregon A couple of weeks ago, on the Cover 3 Podcast, we were trying to figure out who the Group of Five Star would be now that Ashton Jeanty was gone. The first name that came to my mind was Tulane running back Makhi Hughes, only to remember Hughes had transferred to Oregon. Such is life as a G5 program these days, but their loss is Oregon's gain! Hughes rushed for 1,401 yards and 15 touchdowns last year and looked impossible to tackle at times. He'll now be the head Duck at the RB spot, but he'll be spelled by Noah Whittington (540 and 6) and Da'Jaun Riggs.
