I didn’t mention who I think could be the Jack and Star on Oregon’s current roster, but DJ Johnson and Bassa could do really well in those roles. Bassa has already done well at LB and his natural position is safety. It’s seems like a perfect fit. And Johnson has played a role similar to the Jack in Coach Avalos’ defense.

Some of the complete disrespect for Travis Dye and CJ Verdell in the comments kind of surprises me. I get that it’s fashionable right now to disagree with all things Coach Cristobal, but you don’t become #5 and 6 on Oregon’s all-time leading rushers list by just cruising along. Not to mention, Verdell has done so while dealing with injuries each season.

New Oregon S&C Coach Coming from Ole Miss?
Coach Eric Boles replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
That was actually one of my roles when I was coaching lol. -
Utah-Ohio State "Who's Gonna Win the Rose Bowl?"
Coach Eric Boles replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I picked Ohio State in a pick ‘‘em. I just think their downfield threats are clicking at this point. -
Dillingham’s Offense: Four New Elements for Oregon
Coach Eric Boles replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I’d just go with the QBs that Oregon has on the roster. They need the development at some point, might as well start now. -

Love the counter. Should see a good amount of it in a Oregon vs USC game now. -
Dillingham’s Offense: Four New Elements for Oregon
Coach Eric Boles replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
It’s a sweet scheme. I’m pretty excited for it. I also used to watch ASU and really enjoy what they were doing, but I’ve always been a fan of those power spread offenses that came down from Coach Malzahn. I would also say that there were some issues that hampered Coach Moorhead’s offense in his time with Oregon. I don’t think it was vanilla, but it was a bit unbalanced at times. -

Definitely Memphis 2018. I’m hearing that Coach Dillingham had a big hand in playcalling for Memphis that year. -

Coach Eric Boles replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I think you can rest assured knowing we have the better roster. I’m also pretty biased, so take that for what it’s worth haha. But really, I think we have more than enough roster talent to make the offense hum. -
Dillingham’s Offense: Four New Elements for Oregon
Coach Eric Boles replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Thanks! I don’t know how much different the offense will look, from a design standpoint, from Norvell’s since that’s the scheme Dillingham has worked with his whole career. But if it’s any reassurance at all, the scheme is a damn good one. -

I haven’t doubted the Wildcat since Baylor rode it to 600 yards rushing in a bowl game a few years ago lol. Norvell and Dillingham have used it pretty well too. As far as stats at FSU go, I’m only about halfway through their games from last year, but it looks like an offense that improved as the year went on. I know there were some recruiting issues before they got there, so that could play a role. The FSU fans didn’t want to lose this guy, so they were optimistic about things they saw too. I would maybe look at Memphis 2018 film, as I’m hearing he may have also been calling the plays that season. You can look at Auburn 2019, a lot of people will talk about most points put on Saban, but Coach Malzahn called the plays. Coach Dillingham did work directly with the QBs though. -
Hahaha I’m not sure I’m the guy for the job, but thanks!

Informed Prediction Time: Chip Kelly Might be the Next Guy
Coach Eric Boles replied to latracey's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Thinking more on it, I don’t entirely agree with Prehm. I believe Coach Kelly can definitely still coach, and he still evolves on offense. It just seems like if you don’t want to recruit, that’s not going to get you to where you want to be in today’s football. I just wouldn’t want it to feel like going backwards. -
Informed Prediction Time: Chip Kelly Might be the Next Guy
Coach Eric Boles replied to latracey's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I’m with you and Matt Prehm. "Are you hiring Chip Kelly because of what he did at Oregon from 2007-2012? Or are you hiring Chip Kelly the UCLA head coach and what he's done there? College football has drastically changed since his Oregon days. So has his success." -
I’m with you. There’s nothing real exciting about that list.

You, I, NOBODY are Wearing Halos Here...
Coach Eric Boles replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Absolutely agree! -
I really want to thank Coach Cristobal for everything he did for the Oregon program. I know that’s a tough decision when the other choice is home and the fact that his mom is having health concerns. It’s tough, and I wish him and his family the best. As far as who I would like to see contacted, it’s Lane Kiffin or Josh Heupel. Kiffin is a name that I think can really keep a recruiting class together and Heupel has such a strong record of explosive offenses.

Well, three of those guys are actually pistol guys! It is by some, but I think that’s because they didn’t like what they saw of it in the previous offense. There are coaches that run it extremely well though, such as Greg Roman. I was even watching tape from last season and Coach Moorhead did really cool things with it. I just think a lot of his offense was already built around the shotgun and that’s what he likes to do. I don’t think it’s wrong one way or the other.
