Payton Pritchard contributed to the Celt's Game 1 win, coming off the bench logging 16 minutes, 8 points on 75% 3 of 4 FG shooting, 6 rebounds, with 2 Assists.

Awesome scheduling. Colonial Life Arena in Columbia sells out. The Matt should too, with such a storied team and Dawn Staley in Eugene. Fighting Gamecocks versus Fighting Ducks will be something to quack about. Go Ducks!

June has shaped up to become filled with visits by highly rated recruits. Our coaching staff is killing it. See what Sports Illustrated has to say. Oregon Ducks Football Set to Host Massive Collection of Elite Recruits for Visits in June - Sports Illustrated Oregon Ducks News, Analysis and More WWW.SI.COM The Ducks are gearing up for a huge month of recruiting

Nix has a wealth of QB mentoring. Who, but Bo Nix, can say they have worked under Chad Morris, Mike Bobo, and Kenny Dillingham? I'm expecting Bo to be his best-ever this season as a Duck. Go Bo! Go Ducks!!

BO NIX! Take it to the bank. This year he's going to shine.

14 points, 5 Rebounds, 3 Assists in 17 minutes on 5 of 7 shooting. That is a solid contribution off the bench in a big do or die playoff game! Go Pritch!!

Mostly casual since the "Student Body Right". "Student Body Left". Tailback U up the middle days of John Robinson. The next few years will be interesting with a remake at the top in the PAC.

Very cool. Wishing you both and long and healthy life together. A new Duck added to the flock.

Bo Nix!

Say it's so, 30Duck.

UGA!!!@$#!

Passing downfield also stretches the defense making the running game potent. The high number of runs between the tackles made the Ducks easier to defend due to predictabilty.

And a few Jon's.

Recruits eyeing Coach Lanning should be attracted to not only "coached a national champion", but, "record five first rounders to NFL" - the most ever.

Done! #5 matching his uni. Hell yah.

The Fighting Irish athletic director thinks a total realignment of Division I is coming with it. It's time to rethink the role of NCAA president, who is qualified to lead it THEATHLETIC.COM Mark Emmert and other former university presidents have failed. It's time to think outside the box for his replacement.

I made a long drive today while listening to hours of ESPNU on Sirius. I wish I could credit the speakers, but I cannot remember their names. Some things I remember them saying are: - All football fans should celebrate today. "I feel like we should all be like The Munchkins - running around today singing Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead. - College football is undoutedly moving to a premier league and new structures for the rest. They talked about how such an arrangement would effect programs and fans at schools like Memphis that will be left out of the top tier. Notre Dame AD Jack Swarbrick said this week that a break up and restructuring of Division I "is inevitable". - In another segment it was suggested that two names being tossed around to replace Emmert are Jack Swarbrick or Greg Sankey. I cannot fathom either of them being interested in the position. Can you imagine Greg Sankey coordinating rules revisions of college football? The PAC12 would fare well under Sankey.

- Some of the transfers in will help this team - The QB's have talent and one or more will take charge by mid season - The offense will be fun to watch this season and beyond - The RB's are going to produce good stats this season - The game was fairly clean of mistakes for a Spring Game - Thornton and Cota looked good. Franklin flashed some potential - LB's look good and will be a strength It's a long time until September 3rd, but it will come quickly.

42,000 announced. Probably generous.

Great recruiting fodder. Nice timing. Go Thibs. Go Ducks.

It will be great when Oregon becomes the standard that other teams dream of. Go Ducks.

Payton Pritchard is showing that he belongs in the NBA. 2021-2022 season stat line: PPG 6.2 REB 1.9 AST 2.O While the numbers don't immediately jump off the page, Pritchard has gained respect while playing 6-15 minutes per game. Extrapolating Payton's production to 30 minutes per game his contributions become significant. In last night's first round win over the Nets Payton recorded 10 points, 4 rebounds, and an assist in 16 minutes on 5-7 FG shooting. With his competitive nature and willingness to put in the work, his best years are ahead of him. Keep your eyes on Payton Pritchard. I expect him to become a starter within the next few years and to have a long career if he can stay healthy. He will "get paid" with his next contract. Go Ducks. Congratulations Payton. 2021-22 PPGSEASON STATSPTS

One more.... Southwestern Oregon’s Umpqua River system offers some of the state’s best and most diverse river fishing in its mainstem and two big forks. Here you can find some of the biggest Chinook salmon around (both in the spring and fall), steelhead (both summer and winter runs) and fall coho. You’ll also find some of the region’s best fishing for hard-fighting non-native species including astounding numbers of smallmouth bass and shad and some giant striped bass. Suggest a guide from the Reedsport area for lower river salmon, sturgeon, or striped bass. A guide from Roseburg, Sutherlin, or Glide can get you steelhead, trout, salmon or smallmouth depending on water conditions from rain or no rain. The upper river is likely to be low in mid September.

The McKenzie River near Springfield easily is among the most popular fishing streams in the Willamette Valley. The McKenzie has abundant wild and hatchery trout, runs of both spring Chinook and summer steelhead, and at least some angling opportunities all year. This river is on our top choice for Western Oregon in our run-down of Best Fly Fishing Rivers in Oregon, and there are a number of local guides who specialize in fly fishing here.
