Don't look now, but this boosts Oregon's National Ranking to No. 3 for the moment... Not that I think about that stuff at all...

He is a Rivals 4-Star who visited Oregon, Utah and Michigan as the finalists. Other teams who offered were, Texas A&M, LSU, Miami, USC, Washington, Ohio State, Penn State, Alabama and Georgia.

The fact is....the damn Trojans still have NINE players of 13 verbals who are 4/5-Stars with Rivals, and with a usual finish--they will have a top 15 class, if not higher. No need for them to panic. I'm sure Lincoln will figure it out...

Lincoln is visualizing the results...

Great article David, and in the end...."haters are gonna hate" on Oregon. If money was the sole reason for choosing Oregon, and we truly had an unlimited budget--then we would get ALL the 5-Star guys, and our class would be better than tOSU's class. Oregon has always had money, brand, and NIKE associated with us, but the difference is Dan Lanning, and... ...that is making other teams concerned and taking notice.

No, no, NO! Like Clay Helton...we must keep Riley there as long as possible! Lincoln knows where he's going!

Damn Ducks are becoming a real problem... (Right now!)

Just the thought of Oregon being this way gives Mario Cristobal indigestion...

What would Karen Carpenter sing?

My FishDuck Friends, this is delicious, and yes...we have to do it on the field. But right now--hospitals have tons of whiplash cases because has Oregon turned so many heads in the last month. These guys have some good comments about recruiting, and...it is just fun to listen to.

Right. He did not have the times to begin with.... I wish him well.

You know, when actual negative stuff happens...then we discuss, foment, and deal with it as usual in this forum. (Such as losing to Washington) But not enjoying things until the 'Natty happens? Then when we do win one...we can lament how we did not enjoy the journey? Oh, my...

Oh Yeah,...Celebrate this Baby!

Not only does he have the speed for the edge, but FishDuck Photographer Tom Corno, (Paid for by the ads on the pages) was perfectly positioned to capture the touchdown with a perfect Oregon background. This photo is my screensaver on my main computer at home. We will see more of this, as he is truly a hybrid player between WR and TE.

OK...I had no idea he was this fast. This explains many of the RB Sweep and Jet Sweep plays, (from a TE? That NEVER happens!) from our OC Will Stein.

Damn, I'd love some Horton pitchers right now! (But keep the Waz hitters!) (And Waz has already gone further than Horton with TWO Super-Regionals)

Wowsa. I guess we will see a B1G year from him!

Whoa! There is some emotion with this! Once in a while...I have to get my giggles... Miami Fans?

This video is not even two minutes, but people...especially in Columbus are beginning to notice! "Gosh...I wish I had that dude coaching MY team."

Jon, you are the MAN, and thanks for all the research for our benefit!

My many Duck-Buddies, We have an incredible new feature available to our Duck News Hunters, and to all members and readers of the Our Beloved Ducks forum. When you click on the new link on the menu bar at the top of the site where is says, News (see green arrow above) you will have a page open up with tons of links to the sites that our Duck News Hunters go to search for articles to bring to you. We also have links directly to the Topic Threads that you may want to check back, and read articles within that topic--and they are available to everyone, no membership required. Those Topic Threads have been updated in order over time, thus you can spend your whole day reading and basking in Duck Glory. There is NO SITE anywhere that provides all the news articles that we do on the OBD forum, and I know this because I personally checked all of them. The subscription sites offer a few bits and pieces, but not they, not anyone offers the incredible volume of Oregon Sports News that the OBD forum does. And we provide it for you for free? The Challenge at the Forum... We lost Kim (Pennsylvania Duck) earlier this year, and NJDuck is doing a Herculean job without her, but there are not enough hours in the day for him to continue to serve all of us. Could you volunteer to help our a half-hour to forty minutes a few times a week posting articles? It is actually fun to do, and we have figured out how to keep the commitment to the 30-40 minutes per shift, and not the couple of hours that Joe and Kim were doing. Can you help us? As you recall, the two FishDuck sites serve over a quarter-million people a year, thus your volunteer work will help thousands of fellow Duck fans stay updated, and it will be very satisfying for you as well. Email Charles Fischer at charles@fishduck.com and I'll give you more information. It is easy work, and yet impacts so many. Our shifts are early morning starting anytime between 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM PST, with the mid-day shift at 11:00 AM PST, and a final one at 2:30 PST. At minimum, we need people who can fill in for when someone gets sick, goes on vacation, etc. Can you spare some time to benefit other readers of this wonderful forum? I would like to continue providing all the news and articles, especially going into such a special season, but NJDuck cannot do it alone. Jump in, and be a part of the staff that serve so many! My thanks, Charles
