We can assume that enemies will be poisoning and attempting to lure QB's two and three away from Oregon.There are loose rules and little enforcement for tampering. Nix, Thompson, and Butterfield seem to be serious level-headed business-like players. That bodes well for the Ducks. The bait to pull transfers into trznsferring is stronger than ever. The large support teams at the elite schools and some wannabees have can identify and attract transfer portal targets. Stay tuned. Go Ducks.

Thanks for another thought-provoking article previewing Ducks QB's. I look for improved metrics by the quarterbacks over Herbert's senior season numbers. He was limited by the scheme, play calling, and receivers with this year's team capable of improving in all those aspects. Could we see YPC near 10..0, completion rate of 67+, and QB Rating of 160+? Dilly continues to stress that ball security by avoiding interceptions and fumbles is paramount in the QB competition. This is the time of year when the effects of over-consumption of green kool-Aid begins to blur my vision. Go Ducks.

I'm down with your proposition and rationale, DNC. I would love to see the end zone fade called often. Similarly, It would be useful to run some of the red zone patterns that Tom Brady and Gronk used successfully. Gronk used his wide body, speed, and great hands, along with body positioning to overwhelm the best DB's in football. With the end zone fade, and TE slants, crossing patterns, and jump balls, all the Ducks need is a QB with accuracy, good timing, and touch to be consistently formidable. The Ducks are loaded with talented Tight Ends. Go Ducks. Game day is coming.

That's Fire! Go Ducks. Another great execution of concept.

How could the AD's and University Presidents let this happen and continue? While Scott may have been the key perpetrator, the others were accessories to the crimes. Larry Scott would not have lasted so long on either "Yellowstone" or "Ozark".

Congratulations and good luck to these two successful Ducks scholar-athletes.

Justin Flowe is the real deal. Though Oregon fans have seen little of Justin Flowe, the eagle-eyed NFL scouts have undoubtedly identified his overflowing talent, speed, instincts, motor, and football accumen. Flowe is a highlight reel waiting to happen. Flowe's play this season should key Oregon's defense. The Ducks schedule will likely become Thunder Road.

Thanks for the Op/Ed about DeBoer. He has a great offensive mind, and should create new interest in the Huskies football program, and field more competitive teams in the conference. As was highlighted, DeBoer is an offensive wizard. He is multi-faceted with schemes and formations, cadence, snap timing, and uses decoys effectively to consitently produce gaudy offensive statistics. To restore Washington's football will require more from DeBoer that a great offense. How long it takes to build his staff, convert the culture, recruit better talent, and get the President, AD, and boosters on his bandwagon, and get the players on the same page is unknown. The Transfer Portal will be DeBoer's friend for at least the early years of his tenure. There is much to watch for in the coming years inside of Husky football. I like the coach, but really hope the Ducks, and the Duck's defense will keep their webbed feet on the neck of the Huskies not letting them up.

DAZENCONFUSED provided a robust summary of the defense and a forecast of what to expect. There are so many reasons to be optimistic about the Ducks players, team, and coaches. The defense has disappointed me the past few seasons when I expected more preseason than what happened on the field. The cards have been dealt and it looks like a winning hand for this season. It will be very interesting how the games play out, and to see coaches Lanning and Lupoi play their hand.

This season for Miami will tell if Cristobal learned in Eugene to get out of his own way. Like the Hare in the fable, Mario is a strong starter. His term as head coach in Miami will be remembered by how he finishes, not how he starts.

The slot receivers will help the Ducks gain critical first downs and make explosive plays. Seven and Hutson add fire power to the roster. It will not surprise me to see Thompson or Butters overtake Bo Nix by the end of the season. I don't predict a QB transition, but it may occur anyway. Talent is nipping at Bo's heels. Dillingham's tempo offense, along with the talent of the skill players will likely create uncertainty by the defense. Even a brief indecision could result in chunk yardage or a TD.

Apparently "Cheerleader Photo" title lines draw more page views faster than those about football. Can indicators or conclusions be drawn from that?

Play calling in the red zone and on 3rd and 4th down between the 20's. I don't expect dives between the Guards as frequently as last season.

Who will be the starting QB on November 29th against Utah as the regular season schedule winds down? Which honors and rewards will be in play for the winning team entering that game?

The Head Coach is building a special program. Oregon Football should be more fun than ever. Go Ducks.

Thompson carries himself well. He is articulate and genuine with his delivery. Very impressive!

The 2 years prior to Morris' arrival, Clemson went a combined 15–12, including a record of 6–7 in 2010. Morris introduced a hurry-up, spread offense that helped Clemson to a 42–11 mark over the next four seasons. Wikipedia

The article presents facts and contains comparative analysis leading to presumptive conclusions. Yes, the history of Bo Nix’s career has been spotty. I was watching as Bo Nix debuted against the Ducks at AT&T Stadium in 2019. Some observations were as follows. Nix is a warrior willing to put the team on his shoulders to win the battle. He is a dual threat able to throw and run. Nix has a strong core and also has powerful legs. Nix was the hero of the game not only for the final touchdown pass, but for his competitive spirit, yards after contact, football savvy, team leadership and instincts. Nix will have the best support of his career around him. The O-line has been anointed as the PAC12’s best. The wide-outs, slot receivers, Tight ends, and running backs are talented, deep, and experienced. Nix is not making headlines in 2023 NFL Draft assessments. To change the narrative, Bo Nix must turn in some of the highest QB statistics this season. He has the scheme, teammates and coaches to do it. Will he? He has a motive. Will one of the other QB’s, Thompson or Butterfield, win the job? That too is possible making Quarterback one of the key storylines to watch as the fall camp and the new season commence.

Oregon Football opens its 2022 fall camp practice on Friday, August 5th. What are the biggest challenges lying ahead? The coaching staff premieres as a unit. Are they talented with synergy? Is the whole better than the sum? Can they outmaneuver other coaching staff's coaching? How will the Quarterback play shake out for the first game and across the season? The Ducks have stud drakes. but will they perform consistently on the biggest stages? Has the defensive backfield reloaded? Can they defend at all levels? Can they dominate their opponents? Can they win with take-aways every game? We know these Ducks are good. Can they become great? Can they shock the Dawgs? If they do not. then can they rebound and win the conference? The next phase of Oregon Football begins this Friday. Go Ducks.

BAM! Oregon Mens Basketball will strive. Mookie?
