  1. I'll take "stuff that'll never happen" for $1000 Alex...
  2. He is however still planning an OV to Eugene so OBD are still very much in it.
  3. I hope Tez develops the same kind of chemistry with Dillon as he had with Bo.
  4. TBH I don't think they had much of a choice lol
  5. Given that the impact sounds like it would mostly on walk-ons, I don't see how that helps control costs.
  6. Oregon Football Awaits Commitments from Two Elite Prospects WWW.SI.COM Oregon Ducks football fans may soon have a couple of new commitments to look forward to if things play out how...
  7. I wonder why Dabo is so anti-portal...his high school recruiting classes are always in the top 10 (Rivals) so maybe he thinks that's good enough to develop his talent pool via the traditional method. That being said, his competitors are using the portal to fill in holes (like DL) and passing him by. Some people are just stubborn I guess.
  8. Makes sense that tOSU's toughest game would be OBD in Autzen. For Oregon I think it's a tie between tOSU at home and Michigan on the road.
  9. It's heartening to know that there's real hope in a long term coaching situation for OBD. Guys like Saban, Smart, Dabo have been at their schools for years resulting in some serious program stability and with that success at the highest echelons in college football.
  10. I especially like this quote because it's so brutal and true: “Is Lincoln Riley really that much better than any other Air Raid coach? Have we been caught up in the idea of Riley being successful those first couple of years (at Oklahoma) and then applied that to years in which his teams look outclassed and outcoached? I honestly don’t know the answer and I suspect I am not alone. Riley looks like a giant mystery right now.”
  11. Exactly! DL is a defensive guy but you can absolutely tell he divides his attention equally between the defense and offense, he wants to understand everything in detail. LR has always been about offense and has never appeared interested about anything else, based on historical defensive stats on his teams it's obvious he never properly supported his DCs or cared to be involved on that side of the ball.
  12. USC's defensive staff is of course better than the previous one (there was no where else to go but up). But the state of their defensive roster is so bad it's going to take multiple seasons to fix it....assuming LR still has a job by then since fan patience will wear thin if he continues having mediocre 7-8 win seasons.
  13. Wait, is Barry insinuating that LR has won something? Last I checked DL actually has a national championship ring as a DC and has a better HC record the last 2 seasons…
  14. Oh I'm almost certain they'll get 6 losses this upcoming season. They were already mediocre with Caleb Williams, now they have to rely on Miller Moss who didn't look that great in the Spring game. Some of the comments for that video are hilarious... "Great Move SC 💯 Don't Pay This Cat Anything, Way Too Much 💰, For A One Season Rental , Let Him Go Elsewhere" "I think usc is in a much better spot than last year. People are forgetting USC was not even a top 100 defense last year and they played a lot of 275lb interor D-linemen. Only Bear and Barrs were 300ish and up. Also i think Lucas can play DT if they want him to. He was in the 290s last spring before coaches had him cut to 260ish" "Ben Roberts is available in the transfer portal. He's a solid nt, and we could get several players like him in the rotation from the Group of 5 level." 🤣🤣🤣
  15. Trojan bellyaching now lives on YouTube lol
  16. The hubris is still evident, especially when the author won't admit Dillon Gabriel is a better QB than Miller Moss.
  17. What's really kinda funny is that USC is relying on Beavo transfers to hold up that "B" grade.
  18. Correction, Nasir Wyatt is an EDGE defender not an LB.
  19. Elite pass rusher Nasir Wyatt Commits to Oregon 247SPORTS.COM The Ducks just landed one of the nation's premier pass rushers in Nasir Wyatt.
  20. I do think Gabriel's ceiling is lower than Bo's. That being said, the offense will look a bit different with him running it given that he's truly a dual threat QB. We might see the offense revert more into a similar look that we saw in DL's first season with Dillingham managing the scheme, significantly more running by Gabriel than we saw Nix do last season. That being said, he's a more than competent passer and I wouldn't be surprised if he floated around that 4k passing mark with around 400+ rush yards (Bo had over 4.5k passing yards last season for reference).
  21. Plus I don't think the coaches were allowing the QBs to run really at all to minimize risk of injury. That hamstrings a guy like Dillon Gabriel, also he and Dante are still new and don't have chemistry with the receivers yet.
  22. Oregon Football's National Championship Odds After College Football Spring Games WWW.SI.COM The Oregon Ducks football team has one of the best odds in college football to win the National Championship. After the Spring game, Ducks have the 4th best odds for a national championship according to FanDuel.
  23. Interesting drama caused by the bizarre decision-making by Atlanta in taking Pennix. Sean Payton reveals how Falcons ruined Raiders, Vikings, Broncos truce in NFL Draft FANSIDED.COM The Broncos, Vikings and Raiders were all on the same page. The Falcons created chaos.
