Oregon Misses Their Shot at a Win, Lose at Michigan 80-76.
30Duck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
In their least pathetic half of basketball in a long OBD are only down 41-36 to Michigan at halftime. The Ducks are firing up 3's, to nobody's surprise, and actually hitting 50%. Unfortunately, the game turned on a 11-0 run by Michigan, aided by back to back 3's for the home team. The difference in the game is what has been really bad for OBD lately, Michigan is doing anything it wants in the paint. -
He's the Duck that wore 30. Of all the problems we're seeing with the 2024/25 team, toughness, leadership are what's missing. That was not the case with the Kamikaze Kids. He started on a team that went 6-20, that didn't happen again. I wish that everybody here could have experienced a game at Mac Court, "The Pit". You think Autzen gets loud? A library compared to "The Pit". You've heard of the scoreboard shaking overhead, the baskets moving, you would almost get seasick. Opposing coaches hated playing there. not just because of the noise. Up until Harter arrived, taking a charge, diving for a loose ball, making players pay for getting too close to the rim didn't happen, UCLA was the pace setter, and their style was finesse. Wooden hated Mac Court, but Bill Walton loved it.

LaMichael James is Oregon's All Time Best Running Back, Who's Next?
30Duck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Originally, Mel Renfro was going to be a Beaver! At the last minute he changed his mind and did go on to have one of the best careers, on both sides in football and track and field, in Oregon history. Believe me, there would have been NOISE if I had been there, very surprised, SHOCKED, at the lack of recognition, respect coming from the Autzen crowd for Ronnie Lee, throw in unimaginable! "The greatest basketball player in school history!" -
Altman: "This Team is Going to Have to Figure it Out"
30Duck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I agree with this not being Altman's style, which I appreciate. But waiting for this team to take the annual "Altman Leap" might not work this time. Watching their games has turned into the definition of insanity. -
The offense that really worked for osu2 in the Rose Bowl, was Chip, it did not look like anything we've seen from Stein, I doubt he's the TOP candidate for the job. Actually, with Lanning's success at hiring Coordinators, Stein to the Buckeyes might not be all bad.

Oregon Football: Where Will Gabriel Land in the NFL?
30Duck replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
This would be amazing. The reason QB salaries have reached the ridiculous level they have is because the next one is always higher than the others. Brady was different, he was never the highest paid QB, which in a salary cap sport is helpful, but he never had really highly paid teammates. Mahomes is currently No.12 on the highest paid list. Every QB needs talented players around him, Montana had Rice and Taylor, but I see Purdy more similar to Garoppolo. -
The Oregon Ducks men's basketball team lost to the Nebraska Cornhuskers on Sunday night, and their ranking suffered the consequences in the Week 14 edition of the AP Top-25 Poll. Oregon coach Dana Altman and his team are now unranked and completely out of the top-25 after being No. 16 team only a week ago.

If Texas can win this one, with Arch Manning at QB, Texas is off to a great start, if osu2, with new QB, new OC, new DC wins...the lunatic fringe won't think they won by enough, "Fire Day!"

30Duck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
LMJ went from Chip's offense to Harbaugh's in the NFL, couldn't be a bigger adjustment, on a different team, who knows? A player's future in the NFL depends so much on where they play. As far as NFL success, how about LeGarrette Blount? -
Oregon Ducks RB Coach Ra'Shaad Samples to Turn Down Dallas Cowboys Job
30Duck replied to NJDuck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Great news!!!! -
Apparently, there was a POM after the game against Nebraska. If it was anything like the games they've been playing since conference play started, they just stood around and looked at each other. On one hand it's hard to grasp how this season has turned around, except that if you're going to grab wins, early in a season is when to do it. Anybody think Oregon would have been competitive with Alabama in a game 2 weeks after the first one? They win when 3's go down, If those aren't all the other problems we've diagnosed take over. They were "proud" of their ability to come from behind, but that was false bravado, they had to come from behind against Portland. If anything was going to convince them that coming from behind was a red flag it should have been the first UCLA game, but it didn't.

I agree that stats don't automatically equal Best. But if I put Bucky in the Blur instead of LMJ, I don't see him putting up better stats, I don't see where he's superior to LMJ. -

Oregon Football: Where Will Gabriel Land in the NFL?
30Duck replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I like Gabriel at Detroit, backing up Goff. Lots of weapons and a very good RT, named Penei. Purdy being one of the highest pad QB's, maybe the highest, doesn't make $ence to me. This last season is more representative of his level than the earlier seasons. I hope the 49ers can get him at around $50M. -

30Duck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
There's no way around it, the team was incredibly fortunate early in the season, their big wins, the come from behinds, including against Portland, could have gone the other way, coaching, or lack of, is part of the problem. -

MacLean said during the broadcast that now, nobody looks at their schedule and says, "there's a win". Ask Michigan and Michigan State. -

After 0 against UCLA, Shelstad has 5 in the first half, Bittle has 2, Nebraska is shooting 52%, Oregon, 32%, both in the 20% on 3's.
