Sent shivers down my spine. Great post Charles.

I guess UW can't use "gofuskies" either as one of our members has it trademarked. O what are the poor butt sniffers to do.

I believe if you want to play for PAC titles NY6 bowls or a national title we are going to have to "Do as the Jones".
I'm sure all the other big time schools require their season ticket holders to donate to their athletics fund.
The thing Jon is describing is totally new and therefore needs to be implemented if we as a fan base want our teams to be able to compete with what our outlook is.

I say our coaches have to spend more time and out work any other staff outside of the PAC (USC excluded) to get the talent to compete nationally due to the obstacles named above. To me this is a no brainer.
I posit that this could cause burnout for our coaches and thus will possibly cause repercussions on the field.
As far as a difference between the South which I include Texas. I moved to Houston in the 80s and when my native friend and I started driving around I would see these large football stadiums so I would ask which college it belonged to. He would chuckle and inform me it was a HS. 30k capacity for a HS. I was overwhelmed.

It's coming Apr 23rd. Be there or be square.

Baseball America has the Ducks ranked 14th and hosting a regional with Gonzaga, UC Irvine and Nevada.

Mr FishDuck I didn't mean for us fans to stay away. I meant the players who value more money over playing for OBD. Guess I could have been a little clearer.

I'm having trouble with with the idea of players getting big money and then playing with the reckless abandon that I believe the best players exhibit.
If money is more important than I say stay away from OBD.
-
I am vacilating between your ideas of maybe once he got the money he was different.
But I also remember seeing him exhausted after several games like UCLA, OSU, Stanford and WSU.
His injury was a high ankle sprain that is one of the more difficult to overcome.
-
Hopefully the PAC has some forward thinkers like Jon and get this thing going stating next year.

After 2 weeks of being off I don't know how they should be expected to perform first day back? Is he being 2 tough on them?
These are not his players and I sure hope he doesn't alienate them from the start.

It's about time. Kudos to the Commissioner and Committee.

Yes he went to San Mateo CC. He doesn't have a spot on the roster yet. But by what he did in 2020 as a true freshman on ST is any indication it should only be a matter of time.

"Ducks score! Ducks score!"

Has anyone heard anything about Riley from Nebraska. He's not on the roster.
-
I read the quote and after the word "intelligent" DL said "you can see his experience. You can tell it means a little more to him". Ok I probably paraphrased a little bit.
Still that sounds good to me.

At practice today was a familiar face. He will help at safety.
JJ. Greenfield is back. After a 1 year hiatus he's BAACCK!

I believe we shouldn't play a game with the thoughts Jon posted unless the coaches bought in and believe it would be a benefit.

Got to go with the best Duck ever the Green team and LM James.
-
let's see we have many teams to consider.
2001 Joey and the Ducks # 2 cheated out of the Championship game against Miami.
2007 D Dixon we will never know but before injury we blew everyone in including the big bad Michigan at their place.
2010 C K, LM James, the best defense in school history and the undefeated Ducks who got cheated on numerous plays and end up losing to the cheating Auburn.
2014 M Mariota and a good defense who lost at least 2 key players in semi's and then tOSU.
Honorable mention.
I don't remember the year but we had RB R Drounghs go down after beating UCLA at their place. We were ranked pretty high and so was UCLA.
1994 first Rose Bowl in 30 yrs. Tough match with Penn State
2012 bad call in game against Stanford
2019 almost came back after bad start at ASU.
Again to me it's 2010 they are the only team to go undefeated in reg season, actually played and should have won a natty.

The problem with AB was teams figured him out. He was like a pitcher who baffled teams with one pitch, but then once they figured there was only one pitch he was easy to hit. AB was a running qb with limited passing ability.
I was actually startled more teams didn't pick off his sideline throws after Stanford figured out that was one of the few passes he could complete. The Stanford LB almost picked off two of them. That was a pass AB made way too many times if I was a DC of the opposing team.
AB did his best and gave it his all. For that we should all be grateful. The fact that the guys underneath him didn't get any playing time would seem to have been unjust. We will see in the coming years.
I agree with the sentiment for AB. I do believe because of tOSU win it seems to have locked MC to play it safe.
We have pretty much proved on the "forum of decorum" I do believe the boo game was the start.
The players and.MC lost each other and the team towards the end of the season was not functioning properly.
I believe we now have a fresh start with a staff that will "make football fun again", inspire the players, have challenged spots and improved play.
That's why I believe we are going to shock everyone.

Don't they still have the incentive of not being able to play if they don't keep their grades up and the team looses scholarships are recruiting visits?
