Gloves Are Off With Recruiting And NIL
I thought I read somewhere that his personal worth is somewhere north of $100 million...

Gloves Are Off With Recruiting And NIL
Whoops, autocorrect strikes again! Haha

Canzano: Utah AD Mark Harlan Sounds Off on the Rose Bowl, Beating Oregon
They were nice wins for Utah, taking advantage of a distracted Oregon team with Cristobal leaving. Won't be the case for the next season!

Canzano: Did Nick Saban Versus Jimbo Fisher Just Go Nuclear?!?
-
Gloves Are Off With Recruiting And NIL
You'll notice that Fischer doesn't explicitly deny knowing exactly how much A&M's NIL collective has and whether he uses that in his recruiting.

I'd love to see follow interviews with all those guys 😛

California's Canary-In-A-Coalmine/Death of Non-Income Sports Legislation to be Decided by Week's End
I don't know the fine details of the proposal but on the surface it sounds like a terrible idea.

Time to Bump Black Uniforms and Stick to Official Oregon Colors?
TBH I couldn't care less about what the uniforms are worn on the field as long as the other team poops their pants every time Oregon walks onto it.

Does This Surprise You About Noah Sewell Pass-Rushing?
If Justin Flowe is back to full strength and stays healthy all season, the two of them will be a nightmare for opposing offenses. The only con? Noah is not likely to stay another year after this one, he'll be a top 10 or 20 pick, so the dynamic duo would be a one season wonder...

The Most Beautiful Car Ever Made!
I wouldn't say this car is the "most beautiful" but my old 2008 Mazda RX-8 was certainly pretty good looking and so much fun to drive. I have a special affinity for it because it was the first car I bought on my own (brand new as well) after I graduated and got my first job. This car is why I'm fascinated by rotary engines.

Oregon’s QB1: Who Gets The Nod Week 1?
USC's going to have problems mostly with their lines (especially on defense). While they might have good quality starters on the OL, depth right behind them is not very good. As soon as those starters wear out in the 2nd half or any of them get injured then USC gets into trouble.

What do You Want More, a Win Over Georgia or Utah?
Ideally you win both. That being said, I'd rather take a loss early in the season rather than late as you get time to make up for it with subsequent wins (Oregon plays Utah in the 2nd to last week of the regular season, right before the Beavos). While beating Georgia would come with all sorts of media coverage and glamour/prestige, the road still goes through Utah right now for a Pac-12 championship. If you don't win the conference, you don't have any shot at the CFP. Timing is also a huge factor when it comes to impressing recruits...imo a Pac-12 championship and an appearance in a CFP or NY6 game during the recruiting signing windows would have more impact than a win over Georgia way back in week 1.

Oregon’s QB1: Who Gets The Nod Week 1?
Maybe. But if we take Dillingham's words literally and the offense he runs is indeed fast paced then I'd put more weight on a QB's ability to quickly read the defense and go through progressions. I'd say Butterfield is better than Thompson in that aspect right now, scrambling is certainly important but I think the QB just needs to be capable of scampering 10 yards to be enough of a threat...something both Thompson and Butterfield are able to do.

28 yards per catch? This kid lives on long bombs all day!

Lanning Mystery of the Number of Home Bathrooms Solved....
Oh man, I live in a 7 person household...2.5 bathrooms would be the absolute bare minimum to survive for us (and we do) lol

How Fast Are the 2022 Ducks?
Harrison Taggart is impressive in this context given that he plays linebacker...
-
Mr. FishDuck: Explosion Plays, Fast-Tempo, 80+ Plays…Do You Believe It?
I'm not invested in the number of plays per game so much as the scoring average and consistency. If Dillingham's offense averages 38+ ppg and doesn't vary too much from game to game in this first season, that's a big step in the right direction.

ASU DL Transfer has Oregon Scheduled for Final Visit
Then you'll want to avoid Texas lol

College Football Coaches to Propose Transfer-Portal Windows
At the very least it will help teams make high school recruiting a bit more predictible...

KT: Cristobal to Miami Not a Surprise
KT is simply pointing out the obvious out loud. I mean you could tell Mario lost the team in the last 3 weeks of the season based on how they were performing.

Brooks Suspended for One Game for Flagrant 2 Foul
I don't think Dillon intentionally tried to make a dirty play but he went at Payton in an extremely aggressive and sloppy way, an ejection was warranted. Hopefully he learns something from this.

Is New Receivers Coach Junior Adams KILLING-IT, or What?
One has to wonder how Husky fans are trying to spin their sour grapes regarding Adams right now.

VERY Cool Picture of Thib
I also liked how he celebrated with the make-a-wish kid on stage, that was fun to watch!
