Yost would be an interesting option, assuming Oregon didn't leave a permanent stain on his psyche...

I was once offered one of those "life changing money" opportunities. There were some issues, one of which was that it involved a big increase in physical risk, in an industry known for risk, but... The real deal breaker was LOCATION. I would have needed to move my, at the time, very young family away from everyone and everything they knew and loved, to, er................ OKLAHOMA. Could. Not. Do. It. My grandfather got to Oregon by driving a herd of cattle for Stillwater, to Bozeman, Montana. From Bozeman, he drove a herd of horses to a little town in the Willamette Valley, named Sweethome. He said that after seeing what Oregon offered, he couldn't go back, and he never did. That's my choice. Maybe that is what has Lanning sitting here, today. It's not for everyone, but maybe his hot list has somebody special on it!

I'd suggest you "Do Something" with that idea, but the board rules would likely clip my wings, and I sorta like it here!

Ever notice how many of the young men ending up at Oregon have seemingly outstanding support from their PARENTS? Let's go, DUCKS!

The Rodney Dangerfield of the PAC...

CDL has commented in the past that he had built a contact list of potential assistants well before being offered the Oregon position. (No, I don't have a link, although some consider me a "Missing Link") Given that, I would suspect that Lanning probably has been in contact with a few possibilities already.

That would depend heavily on what DL thinks of Joey's virtually complete lack of meaningful experience as a coach... No shade. I love Joey, but we need someone who understands how to form and strengthen young players, in cooperation with the rest of the staff.

Why does this seem like a MC coached game at this point?

I used extra spice in the Ham n Bean soup I prepared for game day, but Gilmore was definitely NOT on the guest list!

Nix's limp is becoming more noticeable as the game progresses.

Anyone up for a long Oregon TD drive at this point? Again with the "spicy" stuff. How's that for spicy, Rod?

Rumors of the beavz demise may be a mite previous... But Ducks are not toast by any means.

COTA!

I'll trump that with my Beavitch ex-son in law, not only as an alum, but he's an accountant for them as well. My grandson refused to go to this un-civil rivalry because he wouldn't get to make noise for his favorite team.

Bo looks hot!

Nutz!

Manning seems to be having some decent moments.

The penalty really hurt.

No fair... Beavers used Bo's play!

Finish this goal line stand, and I'll breathe easier for now.

What a great way to re-enter the line-up! That may have been the catch of Cota's career!

The CHASE IS ON!

How do you spell "SACK?" Definition, please!

Somebody needs to send ABC a memo... I just heard them call this the Civil War Game in the prom before the switch to the broadcast.

In our downy, finely feathered hearts, it will always be, Civil War, but, for today, let it be known as The Refried Bean Dip Beatdown. Go Ducks! Throw salsa in the eyes of the of the flat tailed pond puppies. Waddle On To Victory
