Top Duck Remaining Offensive Line Targets
Duck 1972 replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I agree, but we can still get some from that list. Probably 3*'s but that's okay for this year. McVay was going to be at tough pull and I believe it will be until they get some pipelines going. It seems like relationships with the coach need a little more time developing on the OL. -
Guess what team has the most? Very impressive, Arizona!

Three Reasons Ducks Will Win Pac-12
Duck 1972 replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Rest easy, I say 13/0! -
Great news! Now do we stay at 10 or go for San Diego St and UNLV before the B12 does. I say go get them even if it lessens our money a couple of mil. Would somewhat give us the LA market back and tie up Las Vegas. That can't hurt.

I'm not. The league has been jealous of us for a very long time. Jealousy breeds hate and hate is the epitome of negativity.

I read a great book called "The Power of Habit". In it the author details the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and coach Tony Dungy. How they were not going to keep losing. By lessening the playbook, to become proficient at the plays they did retain. They drilled over and over. They got so good they went into the Superbowl. Which they lost. The reason they determined was they weren't close enough as a team so when an obstacle hit them they fell apart. The machine they had become quit working. So that off season Tony instituted a way for them to become closer. The very next year they won. To a player when asked what the difference was, the response was they were playing for more than just themselves and the games but for each other. The author surmised the missing ingredient was not only being proficient but playing for something more than just yourself but each other. I remember Chip talking about the book and I believe the concept became a bedrock of his team. In fact he and Tony became friends and his son played for the Ducks. I wonder if DL also read the book because he is embracing its ideas at almost every turn.

Happy and Relief: FishDuck News About the Georgia Game
Duck 1972 replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
On the 28th day til football my sweetheart said to me. (not talented enough to think of the last stanza) -
Another great article. Tells you a lot about DL and what and how he is doing. Ty Thompson gave a great take on what he sees. " He's a natural leader". That high praise is very telling. Also he and his team are calm and confident about the 1st game. Bring on the dawgs. They don't have a clue what's about to hit them.

The Difference Between This Year and Last?
Duck 1972 replied to Haywarduck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I expect the most dominant defense we have ever seen, don the yellow and green and take us to the promise land. -
Which Pac-12 Coaches Mean the Most to Their Teams
Duck 1972 replied to Tandaian's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Donte Williams would be a close 2nd for me. -
This is the best news that's happened since D Moore committed. Oh along with Dorlis Flowe, Popo and Ware/Hudson. Those guys being healthy is critical to start the season and for this D to be as dominant as it can be.

How Many Games Do You Think the Ducks Will Win?
Duck 1972 replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I'll take 13-0. I believe this team is comparable to 2010 team in talent but mostly motivation. -
Speed Training Pivotal at Tight End this Offseason

Let's see strong, tall, and fast. A match up nightmare. Love me some TE domination. -
Fall Camp Opens Friday: Dan Lanning Goals On Mind
Duck 1972 replied to Smith72's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
"We Do More!" Nice touch Dan the Man. Only 29 more days and counting. -
The more I think about it. Mr Dollars is my new breakout candidate for 22. He's basically a senior. That's a whole lot of experience. Experience matters when you have such a young RB room. He says he's the healthiest he's ever been. He was ranked the #2 all-purpose RB in 2019, so he has the talent. Now he just needs the opportunity. This is his time to shine.
