You make great points, and I am resigned to it eventually, but it will be easier to make the Playoffs in the Pac-12....and that extra money and exposure might just make up for the loss of the B1G revenue. It may not work out as planned...

Wow, just wow. Make that SEVEN experienced offensive linemen for this upcoming scoring barrage... 6'3" 325 lbs.? Whew!

Boy you have come to the right place; not for help, but a community that loves to be over-the-top in our love for Our Beloved Ducks. What I enjoy the most about your post is that you have done what I have done often in the past; put myself out there on a limb....happily. If we end up wrong later? So what. It was out of love for OBD, and due to our excitement. The MOST talented squad ever? Boy....beating the 2010, 2012 (with DAT) and 2014 is hard to overcome, but you make some excellent points. I am in the group that feels that "this is one of our best offensive groups ever." We will not have such a savvy, experienced QB at the helm again like this for years, and the experience on offense at all positions is impressive. Throw in the "Bird-Bomb" offense of Will Stein that opens up the mid-range crossing/short routes, and we have a nasty passing attack at the ready. But it will be built on a great running game from six experienced offensive linemen, (now a seventh with the portal transfer announcement today) three experienced TEs and a running back stable that could be the deepest ever at Oregon. Thanks....just thanks for getting me juiced on a Monday morning!

While I've been quacking about how Lanning has upgraded the roster--it sure appears that a ton of other teams have done as well or better. I am surprised at how well the damn Huskies did in upgrading.

You gotta love how sites/journalists are able to spin an article from information known for months, along with analysis that every functioning Pac-12 fan has long already arrived at.

Incredible! When building the quality depth as Coach Lanning is, he has viable solutions for all challenges. When a player won’t follow directions or showboats, (I’m looking at you Dontae Manning) Tosh would have great options without a drop off in talent. Big step up on defense coming!

We don’t post articles that require a subscription. If you could summarize it for everyone?

The Women have a real chance of making some noise here. They do not have to face a top seed at home, and No. 11 is quite beatable for OBD. What gets interesting is that if Oregon should win the regional--they would face the winner of the Oklahoma State No. 6 regional, and that OSU is on a 3-11 skid ending the season. (They started 18-1) Should they be upset and the Ducks win....could a Super-Regional come to Eugene? The table is set for Coach Lombardi--go for it!

Some big holes in the defensive line coming up with the majority being seniors. And yet there are ELEVEN edge rushers for one position? We need four there, five at most. Thus some real fall-out will happen over the next year since the majority are freshmen. Recruit like heck, and then find out who is the best.

Why did Bryant leave USC? Especially with such a great first season in 2021? (Decided early in 2022 to transfer out) Lincoln Riley brought his receivers from Oklahoma over, and with the star transfer from Pitt, (Addison)....Riley wanted to play "his" guys, and Bryant felt he was passed over regardless of production. Perfect scenario for a good transfer.

Nice short video of his highlights, and he has speed and excellent body control. Good one!

I thought Samie Parker was fast, but Pleasant has beaten all his CA records. Whew!

Lanning has been killing-it in the portal! Without the portal transfers on both sides of the ball, this team next year would be good, but with all of these transfers… This team has the chance to be great.

Between him and the transfer from Ole Miss...there is both some near term TE relief and upside. Good one!

It still blows me away that the number is 90M for our entire conference, yet each one of the B1G members are going to get 40M to start and working up to 70M? Rutgers, Northwestern, Illinois, Maryland, Iowa, Minnesota, Purdue....those seven teams deserve more than Oregon?

This is terrible on so many levels. Confirmation from other sources of Arizona/Colorado leaving in June? A contract well below the Big-12? You just don't see some of these things coming...

This component to me, is the elephant trumpeting in the room...and nobody is hearing it. A team that is 10-2 in the Pac-12/Big-12 could end up being 6-6 in a Super Conference by losing a ton of close games by one play...yet still be a great team. Is that really better? How long will the fans love that?

Wow...20M? A worse deal than the Pac-12? Boy, things will be changing!

I figured it would get reported anyway, so here goes... (Please ignore the source, as you can find it on other outlets I'm sure) Family of late Oregon football player raises 'doubts' over paternity claim, girlfriend fires back WWW.FOXNEWS.COM The family of Oregon football player Spencer Webb is disputing the paternity of a child who a social media influencer says belongs to the late college football star.

Pac-12 Presidents + Larry Scott = Disaster for the Conference

I hear they have issues at receiver...

First, I present a short article by Brent McMurphy posted by Rufus, (thank you) on another thread. See my summary of a few items at the bottom... Oregon And Washington "Vetted" And "Cleared" To Join The Big Ten According To New Report – OutKick WWW.OUTKICK.COM The Oregon Ducks and Washington Huskies have been vetted and cleared to potentially join the Big Ten, according to a new report. Justin Hopkins on On3/ScoopDuck still believes that Colorado is departing for the Big-12, and that Oregon is headed (sooner or later) to the B1G. Brent McMurphy says that "people I trust" feel that both Arizona and Colorado might be headed out the door. He goes on to say that both Oregon and Washington are "vetted," which makes no sense to me because that takes about 20 seconds to determine that. It appears that everyone is waiting for a shoe to drop, because we have THREE parties who want the Pac-12 to dissolve so they can get Oregon/Washington on the cheap. Those three are: --Fox Sports --B1G Conference, and the surprise is... --ESPN None of them want "blood on their hands" for the destruction of a conference, thus I wonder if behind the scenes we have those three parties poking at the Big-12 Commissioner to aggressively go after some Pac-12 schools? Don't get me wrong; they ALL want the Pac-12 to die for their own reasons, but simply don't want to be seen as responsible for it? They want us to implode on our own out of panic to clear their conscience. Thus I think the behind-the-scenes-stuff must be pretty wild and intense. I listened to the eight minute video above, as between that and JHop...it feels like the shadows of vultures overhead are on the ground around us.

And who/what is Brent McMurphy's source? A ton of blah-blah speculation in that article that we have already heard, including how Utah is not headed out the door. Anybody can make any claim including how the two schools are "vetted." But where does he get this from? Is he related to Dennis Dodd? How long it takes to "vet" Oregon? --7th biggest college audience globally --Meets the academic profile. --Is a national brand-coupled with NIKE. That did not take long...

It is a constant struggle for them to be noticed...

It is great to be an underdog...to have to prove it to the nation. I WANT our players to have a chip on their shoulder. We will get respect when we earn-it, with wins. Bask in it when the season is over...
