I wonder about the criteria for arriving at these rankings. Is it number of needs addressed weighted by the perceived quality of the signees to address those needs? By these criteria, our Ducks would have to be rated very highly. I'd also think that coaches with the mindset that the best pathway to success is retention of people on the rosters whom are well known commodities, such as Kirby Smart and Ryan Day, might never be rated very highly on portal classes because they have fewer needs to address and would rather spend their NIL resources on known entities who could otherwise be tempted by "tampering" solicitations from afar. Having mentioned here Day here, Ohio State would almost certainly be rated highly this year in part by the pick-ups of ridiculously talented running back Judkins from Ole Miss and safety Caleb Downs from Alabama. But without knowing the set of factors involved in generating the ratings, I tend to take off-season lists of this type as of dubious value (though am still glad to see the Ducks rated highly' regardless of the criteria).

SIDEARM Integrations GODUCKS.COM Oregon won both games of a doubleheader Saturday against Utah, which entered the week tied for first in the Pac-12.

Trojan bellyaching now lives on YouTube lol

We got Moore than we expected, as he gave us three scoreless innings, and Oregon wins 5-1! Final game Sunday at noon!

No change after eight innings, and Utah is up for their last three outs! Brock Moore got us through the two scoreless innings, taking over for Grinsell who limited Utah to one run in six innings. Let’s hope Brock can finish this off!

Still 5-1 Ducks after seven innings!

5-1 Ducks after six innings!

Because living in LA means better NFL development? No idea what the logic is, it’s not 1972. If that quote in anyway reflects the mindset of people actually inside the program, it would explain a lot.

Oregon up 4-0 after five innings due to Jeffrey Heard digging out a slider to score two!

After four innings, Our Beloved Ducks still lead 2-0, and the lead was preserved with a wonderful double play!

Still 2-0 Ducks, after two innings, as Grayson Grinsell gets in a jam, and then strikes them down.

It's okay USC...you DID get a punter. USC football adds commitment from Hawaii transfer punter Cameron Shirangi 247SPORTS.COM USC adds another specialist out of the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Oregon is the better program. It is not close and has been that way for a long time. USC has only beaten Oregon ONE time in the last 12 years. USC only has ONE conference championship since 2008. Oregon has 6, Stanford has 3, Washington has 3, and Utah has 2. The best part is that USC fans are so delusional, that they really believe that Riley, (who is 0-3 in playoff games, 1-6 in NY6 games, and 0-3 in the post season with a Heisman QB starter and blue chip rosters) is somehow going to bring USC back to the Pete Carroll days.

This quote has me confused and I read it like 15 times. "It’s clear that Harmon thought long and hard about his decision. Some might speculate that Oregon increased the value of the bag at the last moment, and that USC wasn’t willing to pay as much. Maybe that’s true, but we don’t know that. We can say that Harmon weighed his choice and didn’t make it quickly or easily. This obviously means Eric Henderson and USC offered something compelling, something worth considering. NFL-level development mattered in all of this. It might simply not have been the first — or only — factor." In particular the last sentence.... Are they saying that USC was going to provide better NFL development than Oregon? Because of that's what they're saying than that is some major arrogance. Especially when you look at the record of Riley and his defenses. And Riley still has his past defenses hanging around his coaching reputation even though he vowed to make defense come first. He hasn't shown he has done that yet. Meanwhile, Lanning is has shown he is a great defensive mind and has the track record.

Oregon plays the third game Sunday at noon! ----------------------------------------- Our Beloved Ducks are up 2-0 after one inning due to two wild pitches by the Utah pitcher.

A roasting yes, now, in May. Come November, they won't say a word. It's been like this since the first BCS, or even before. If the Pac had only played 8 conf games, the rankings would have not been so skewed to the SEC. This is major reason I don't necessarily want a " National Champion" in football. We don't all play the same teams and so much depends on subjective rationale and the ol' "eye test". Well, if they can agree finally on a more level playing field, great! Being in the B1G is now of supreme importance. Hate to see the Pac go, but college sports is headed into a whole new game and I'm glad for Oregon sakes we are now B1G.

And they are late to this game of realization that USC is not Oregon's equal. This article I wrote was ages ago back when Cristobal was still Oregon's head coach and I think Lanning has only pressed the advantage that was created by those who came before him. USC Football Is NOT Oregon’s Equal | FishDuck FISHDUCK.COM Oregon and USC seem primed to be the top two schools in the Pac-12. Both have top ten recruiting classes... Sure NIL helps but the reality is that USC should have way more cash for this if they had alumni who cared. And I think the reality there is that the USC alumni believe they are entitled to the recruiting wins and having an eternally natty ready roster. And that's not the reality. USC fans are just as entitled as ever and that could be an advantage for us.

We can be honest about Oregon's victories over USC Phil Knight’s money is huge for Oregon, but it’s not the whole story TROJANSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Money might truly be the main driver of Oregon’s transfer portal wins over USC. It isn’t the only factor, though.
