This would be BIG considering it is at a position of need. Just his head shot shouts “Stud,” and a classic MIKE LB look. But he can run like few can-crucial for what Dan Lanning is building.

Wowsa. Top five in the nation in both major offensive categories? Whew! My fingers tremble as I keyboard, as the thought of an offense scoring that much would be so much fun! Love it Joshua, and THANKS!

I don't boo unless it is the Huskies, and I really boo them. I never said I was noble...

This is a bit much, and I hope it lights a fire under the team!

Yikes! Or is that sweet?

Gotta love it! Hope not!

Oh Dante....you should have stayed with Oregon!

Not everyone does it as well as Oregon, but you would think they would spell Indiana correctly. Perhaps that is why Penix left?

I doubt it, but I have no doubt that there is some QB at a lesser school--who is talented and will want to transfer to Oregon at the end of this season. Like a Penix from Indiana type of situation...

That is accurate, but incomplete. Winners acknowledge when they've blown it, own it, and apologize. They need to blame the prior Athletic Directors who hired the bad coaches, and their Presidents that let Larry fiddle the conference away. It comes down to their leadership and decisions; in the 1970s....the two teams were equal in their problems and public perception. But the Ducks had better decisions made, thankfully, and OSU fans did not. They should acknowledge their own failings which created this instead of looking outside for blame.

Wow, great point. This makes more money for the NFL team that drafts him, and more money for him later through endorsements due to his well known name.

So would I, but would they for us? I do not like what has happened, but a ton of my sympathy was lost when they began blaming Oregon for their troubles. Loser logic, and while I will feel a little sorry for them, I will also have some fun with it all.

For those who could not open the Twitter, (X) ad from the other thread...this is what people checking scores at ESPN saw yesterday... Is this promotion for the program incredible or what?

This is reported on another site, in the NY Times--cool!

Have you seen the tweets and postings claiming that the Beavers are America's Team? Well that marketing is a bit late, and well--everyone knows that they are not even the team of the Willamette Valley! Poor Beavers...

Yeah, but they added some incredible twitchy speed on offense. The Trojans will pile up boatloads of points, and opponents will have to outscore them. Like against Tulane?

Two of the finest public universities in the land having to settle for the Big-12? Where Oregon State would like to go? Count our blessings Duck-Buddies!

For Cal/'Furd to be rejected by the ACC later? It would be the final nail in their relevance coffin. Their sports are valued the same as the MTW? AAC?

I am still stunned that the B1G has not come in and offered Cal/'Furd something ridiculous, like 10 million a year to join the B1G and finish the west pod....

Damn...is this right or what? I am starting to like B1G fans already.... Doesn't this map explain Oregon State's image issue? Conference woes?

Ol' Crazy-Eyes has a learning curve... Flowe is "going to have to work through making sure that his passion doesn’t get in the way of his technique and responsibilities as a player." In other words: Play fast, but don't play hurried; play aggressive, but never step outside of the responsibilities as a linebacker." Nansen said at the start of training camp that reining Flowe to play within his assignment on a play-by-play basis is "an everyday battle for me, man." "I'm trying to build some confidence in the kid and (make him) really understand that you can be more productive when you're under control," Nansen said. "It's an everyday reminder for him." You can read the article right here, and this is why I was OK with his leaving...
