Tell the world your strategy before it can be implemented? PR? More like peeyou with this release.

If there is a group party (group) to blame for the mess the Pac finds itself in, the CEO group is that entity. It did not excercise over control or effective oversight over Livin Large Larry, resulting in a litany of negative outcomes over a long period of time. They can cite vacancies, turnover, respect to incoming peers, other priorities in acadamia or administration. This group has failed miserably over 7-10 years protecting Maslow's highest need - Survival, let alone flourishing growth. The topic, related history, and outcomes would make a pathetic Business Case study.

Big 12 leaders vote to accept Colorado, clearing the way for Buffs to depart Pac-12, AP source says APNEWS.COM Big 12 presidents and chancellors have voted unanimously to accept Colorado as a new member, clearing the way for the school to leave the Pac-12 and rejoin the conference. Colorado returning to Big 12? League presidents approve membership as Buffaloes consider leaving Pac-12 - CBSSports.com WWW.CBSSPORTS.COM The Buffaloes appear to be ramping up efforts towards a return to the conference they helped found decades ago The earthquake is rumbling.

In 19 years in the ACC conference, Miami U has achieved: - One 10-win season - One Coastal Division (no longer Title) - Finished in the Top 25 only 6 of 19 years - Won 3 bowl games Is Miami really mighty? Mario has some tough paddling ahead against the current Miami has been in..

A fun day and weekend in Columbus! Every day is a good day to be a Duck. That day was even better. Kudos to Buckeye fans who welcomed us before the game, and congratulated Duck fans afterwards. The band can dot the."i". I wonder if they can put a sailor cap on a duck?

Some good analysis and conclusions Jon. Thanks for bringing those facts and opinions to our attention.

3rd and short was a poor odds scenario under Cristobal.

This is what the proud Commish had to say.

"Patience is a virtue" some say. Others? "Lead, Follow, or get out if the way". Still others...PUNT!

The truth will set you free, Charles. Did you have a closeted Suitemate?

Thanks, David, for the article. I see the present and future different than you do. Oregon will ultimately respond to and participate in a full realignment of the top teams in college football. I believe that the Ducks will play in several championship playoffs before the reshuffling occurs.

So what! Indeed.

This is tough news on a tough-news day. Good luck to Coach Altman in shoring up his staff. Congrats to Coach Martin.

If indeed the strategy is an easier path to the playoffs in the near term that's good. It is very likely a safe spot for a holding pattern as the universe of college football evolves. The Pac won't make it in the end, and Oregon will end up in an enviable conference or group when the frenzy slows, and the top 40 or 50 teams compete for the ultimate crown.

Happy birthday Charles and Haywarduck! Let freedom ring. I've seen Charles' pit, but not tasted his chicken. We had a back deck soiree' here today in Greenviille, SC. NY Strips and Shish Kabob breast of chicken skewers, baked potatoes, Corn-on-the-cob, Watermelon, and strawberry paradise cake from Publix Bakery. Nobody left hungry. Enjoy the chicken and your burthday too - you young pup.

The OL looks good as well in those highlight clips, both at the LOS and downfield blocking.

Thanks Charles for pointing out the DB prowess and for providing tips for accessing Tweets. Useful.

I'll take our depth and variety of skills over any of them. It will be a stampede of Ducks running by, through, and over defenders .

A whole new playing field of conferences is emerging squeezed by media entities. It will take 5-10 years to fully shake out. I don't see either of the Pac or ACC playing big boy football in the end. Oregon will be in the elite level of college football with 40-50 other teams. I have no idea beyond that how scheduling and alignments will work. Darwinism with insider meddling.

Gawd you're old Jon! But your memory recalled some great QB's and some fun facts associated with them. Thanks Dad, just in time for Father's Day (and Grandfather-to-be Day in your case).

I'm not holding my breath on the Beavis fans as I root with all smiles.

I heard the 19th hole is the windiest of all?

Just saying.."Go Ducks"!

I've read Canzano's piece, as well as your post within this Forum. The CBSSPORTS.COM coverage and AD George's words can speak for themselves as written since they are now here for all to read and interpret.
