  1. I love how it's going so far for Lanning at Oregon. He wasn't on the short list when the search began, or maybe not even on the long list, but he got the job, at around the same time Riley was hired at USC, setting up a huge rivalry. Aside from Oklahoma, everybody seems to love the Riley hire at USC. The Trojans aren't being picked for the Playoffs, well except for Colin Cowherd, but nowhere have I seen a caution flag, a this might not work, about Riley at USC. Lanning, while not missing a step has in comparison gone about his business under the radar, and that couldn't be any better, for Oregon or Lanning. The Oregon brand is still strong, but it's showing its resilience while USC is shouting and jumping up and down to get noticed again. By the way, Russell Wilson just bought a new place in Denver. It only cost $14 M while Riley spent $17 M, for his in LA, both have 12 bathrooms.
  2. Dan Lanning talks Justin Flowe, Noah Sewell, and other notable players DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM From “under the weather” to “dinged up,” Lanning gave us an update on some injured Oregon players.
  3. Oh man, if "you know who" comes through. Koloko and Mathurin are both gone from Arizona.
  4. I am happy to see this article, glad to see that my perception of Earl was a bit outside. I didn't follow the Orioles very much, definitely was rooting for the Mets in '69. My thought was based on the thought's I picked up on that Weaver was fine with getting hits, preferably home runs and winning that way, rather than constructing an offense with his:"genius" On the Tigers, I was a fan when they got off to the great start in 1984 and ended up beating the Padres, and of course, Mickey Lolich is from Portland!
  5. You can't hear much better than that! Dan Lanning cites Kyler Kasper's work ethic in first comments after Kasper's NLI signing 247SPORTS.COM The Oregon wide receiver room currently features just nine scholarship players going into the 2022 football season. While...

  6. This makes me think of long time Baltimore Orioles coach, Earl Weaver. Earl didn't play small ball and wasn't considered a "Genius". But the Orioles won, and they did it by scoring a lot of runs and having the pitching. In 1971, the Orioles became the first team since the 1920 White Sox to have 4 20 game winners, Jim Palmer, Dave McNally, Mike Cuellar and Pat Dobson.
  7. We'll see how Helton does at Georgia Southern, haven't heard of a new landing spot for Lake.
  8. Jimmy Lake wasn't. He looked to be completely over his head.
  9. What Coach Waz has done with the baseball team is nothing short of amazing!
  10. Great news heading into the Spring Game!
  11. Don't forget, Oregon beat Gonzaga, 9-5 in Spokane back in March, this game was in Corvallis. No. 12 Gonzaga beats No. 2 Oregon State for highest-ranked win in program history WWW.NCAA.COM No. 12 Gonzaga earned its highest-ranked win in program history after defeating No. 12 Oregon State, 13-6.
  12. The humility here is how a USC fan differs from a Husky Honk who has never shown up. Ther is an open invitation to Softy. There's no setting our sights on USC. Respect yes. But it's been a long time since a W over the Trojans meant more than any other win.
  13. "Nothing to fear but fear itself". Right now, I don't see either program running scared, neither team would trade its coach for the other. But I like Lanning more, right now and in the future. USC needed to get Riley, a "Superstar". That's what works in LA. if Riley doesn't produce a sequel to Pete Carroll Snoop Dogg will be spending his fall in SoFi with the Rams and Chargers. Riley got OU to the Playoffs, 2 Heisman Trophy winners, and his QB this season is one of the favorites. It's win or bust for USC now. Lanning hasn't missed a step yet. Hiring coaches, installing a new culture, recruiting. As far as I know, Lanning and the other coaches have rooms at a Motel 6. They're working to have Oregon ready for the season. Nobody is expecting the Ducks to win the Natty. But they'll be ready for every game and leave it all on the field.
  14. If last season was rock bottom for MBB, I like how it's responding!

  16. Another Big loss, but not a big loss to the team as I see it.
  17. I agree with the sentiment, respect USC. Neither USC or that school up north have ever extended that courtesy to Oregon. The Trojans are the buzz, Cowherd has them champs already. I'll show some respect to Riley, but while Lanning has probably found a nice place for him and his family, it isn't a mansion, and practices weren't scheduled around Tiger's tee times. I like how Lanning is handling things so far.
  18. That's basically the records of the two teams since...
  19. The Husky Honks really do reside in la-la land, more than the Trojans who are located in LA. The Ducks are closing the gap on all time wins, which is all the Huskies have. The latest range of games that shows Oregon's dominance is Records of Oregon and Washington since Don James "retired." Washington is 191-155 .551% Oregon is 255-107 .704%
  20. George was running "Prevent Offense" before Mari.
  21. I'm just afraid that Miami fans are dreaming that their new Coach is going to have them back in Jimmy Johnson-Dennis Erickson times this season. This is going to be interesting.
