    Oregon Lands RB from Minnesota in Transfer Portal

    in Our Beloved Ducks

    Posted

    Watching his junior season highlights (high school), it looks like he doesn't carry the ball "high 'n tight" like he should, yet he didn't have any fumbles in 2021. 🧐🤔🤞

     

    As to a need at RB, I'm in the camp which believes DL is just fostering as much competition at each position as possible. This kid was a 4*, so he's bound to elevate the room. Great move imo.

    Biggest Letdown Game Memory

    in Our Beloved Ducks

    Posted

    January 2nd 2016.

     

    31 - 0  All Ducks at halftime. The rest is ugly history. This is the biggest letdown game in my memory.

     

    The 2011(2010 season) NCG would come in at a distant 2nd... I mean, we were in that game until the end, at least. 

     

    Furd in 2012,  Zona in 2013,  Zona in 2014!, tOSU in 2014 (first ever playoff NCG... C'mon!)

     

    There are others, for sure. But these games stand out above all, to me.

    Believe it, Duck Fans: USC Is for Real

    Darren, you're still a Duck fan, right? 😁

     

    Kidding aside, great article. I agree 💯. The USC program has too much pride to let other "lowly" teams (like Oregon, Utah) be the head of the Pac. It was only a matter of time, like you said. 

     

    Good! 

     

    Good for the Pac, and good for Oregon. I want USC to be at their best when we beat them. It's the catalyst we need to unsure we get the credit, and recognition needed to be considered a serious playoff contender, year in and year out. 

     

    USC will beat Oregon some years, and Oregon will beat USC other years. But if both programs are at their best, along with 2-3 other strong Pac-12 teams, then perhaps the Pac-12 will repair it's once proud status as one of the best conferences in CFB. 

     

    So much lies ahead. I cannot wait to see it all unfold. 

     

    Go Ducks! 

    The Pac-12 has to Act Now

    Oregon's approach is to make Oregon a desirable destination by offering the best facilities, not just in sports, for student athletes. 

     

    This is the most honorable way to attract the best. No bribes, no pay-for-play, just a great environment. 

     

    I share the sentiment of wanting that to stay the same.

    I can't imagine how much money Mr Knight has already donated but I 'm sure it's an awful lot. 

    Phil & Penny have gifted over a billion dollars to the U of O. 

     

    This was posted in March of 2021, before their second gift of $500 million was announced later in the year.
