    Ryan Day Talks Rose Bowl and Championship Game

     You won the natty which is a great accomplishment and testament to being the best, but did you really underperform?  Was it Chip Kelly to the rescue?  

    I firmly believe that it was CK's involvement that brought Day his first championship. Look what Chip was able to do at Oregon, with far less tallent. Ryan Day may have made the best decision of his career to bring Chip on board, but it might also be the ultimate telling, seeing how Chipper is gone now, so the one off with Chip might say in the future all we need to know about Ryan Day. 

    OBD will get there the right way under DL. 🪿

    Oregon vs Wisconsin Post Game Discussion Thread

    Well that was... something. I'll take the win, but our offense needs to figure stuff out this week and become more on par with our defense. 

     

    I will say that I'm very proud of OBD for fighting through adversity and sticking it out to get the win. Even though it was a close game it was still a good learning experience, and there will be many lessons learned. 

     

    Game ball should be split between the defense and Atticus Sappington. 🦆

     

    Now let's hope they fix that offense up so when they face the mutts in 2 weeks they can light them up at home, and Dan will get his first win against the purple puppies.

    Did Rob Mullens Email You Too?

    in Our Beloved Ducks

    I received an email from Rob Mullens on Friday, but I didn't notice it until this morning. I have never received an email like this before, and it has me a bit curious. 🤔 

     

    For those who didn't receive one, I'll summarize below:

     

     

    The message is from Oregon Athletics to their supporters, explaining upcoming changes in college sports and their impact on the university. Here’s what it means in a summary:

     

    1. New Financial Changes: Due to legal settlements, colleges may soon share revenue directly with student-athletes, especially for their name, image, and likeness (NIL). This could cost Oregon over $20 million annually, on top of current expenses.


    2. Scholarship Rule Changes: The NCAA may allow unlimited scholarships but limit total team roster sizes. This change could double the number of scholarships, adding significant costs (around $14-$15 million more each year).


    3. Increased Costs: Oregon Athletics, which operates without university funds, must cover these new expenses. They’ll need to find additional revenue or cut costs while continuing to support their 20 sports programs and 500 athletes.


    4. Transition to Big Ten: Moving to the Big Ten Conference provides new opportunities, better stability, and greater visibility for Oregon Athletics, but they still need strong supporter backing to thrive under this new financial model.

     

    Overall, it’s a request for continued support as the university adapts to major changes in college athletics funding.
