Prim Prachnakorn and Celina Yeo both inked athletics scholarship agreements to join the Ducks as freshmen for the 2026-27 season. Golfweek has Oregon's two-player class ranked No. 1 in the nation, ahead of Stanford, Arkansas, Wake Forest and Virginia.

"We are very excited and grateful that both Prim and Celina have chosen to be Ducks," Radley said. "They are both incredibly talented golfers but also terrific humans who will fit in perfectly with the culture we've created here at Oregon. Prim and Celina both come from extremely supportive families and we are thankful and excited to welcome them both to our family here in Eugene." Prim Prachnakorn | Bangkok, Thailand Currently the No. 51 ranked amateur in the world, Prachnakorn will join the Ducks next season as one of the top international talents in the class of 2026. A member of the Thailand National Team, Prachnakorn has racked up nine wins and 29 top-10 finishes since the summer of 2024. She won the Mandiri Ciputra Golfpreneur Junior World Championship earlier this year, as well as the Singapore Open Amateur Championship and the Malaysia International Junior Open. She also placed sixth at the Toyota Junior World Cup and second at the Queen Sirikit Cup. "Prim is an elite athlete who has all the potential to be one of the very best players in college golf," Radley said. "Her experience playing with the Thailand National Team will be invaluable as she makes the transition to playing on the biggest stages with the Ducks. She comes from a very loving home with her mom, Ple, her dad, Yoswin, and her brother, Tee. We are so thankful to have her join our Duck family and can't wait to see what her future holds here at Oregon." Celina Yeo | San Carlos, Calif. In addition to being the No. 2 ranked player in the class of 2026 by Golfweek, Yeo is the top-ranked 2026 recruit according to Junior Golf Scoreboard. She posted runner-up finishes at the Rolex Girls Junior Championship in both 2024 and 2025, and recently finished ninth at the 2025 PING Invitational.

"We are so excited to welcome Celina to the Oregon women's golf family," Radley said. "Celina has had an outstanding junior golf career and will be a terrific addition to our program both on and off the course. There is no limit to how bright the future can be for Celina here with the Ducks. She comes from a great family with her mom, Yooyoung, her dad, Sung, and her brother, Jayden, and has worked with a top coach, Gareth Raflewski, who has coached elite tour professionals. We can't wait for her to get her Oregon career started next fall."

I could swear that this was a squeaky dog-toy that I had wrestled Abbie with years ago.... For those who have dogs now--does this look familiar to you? Or...give me your best caption to go with this screenshot!

And thank goodness for that! Thanks so much for your research and perspective, my Schedule-Maven friend!

I've determined that I'd like to see us end up with a No. 6 or No. 7 Seed....

OREGON ATHLETIC COMMUNICATIONS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE | TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2025 OREGON FOOTBALL | @oregonfootball EUGENE, Ore. — The Oregon football team moved up one spot to No. 8 in the second release of the College Football Playoff rankings on Tuesday. The Ducks (8-1, 5-1 Big Ten) are coming off a thrilling road win over Iowa, which was No. 20 in the committee's initial rankings last week and moved down just one spot to No. 21 this week. Oregon is one of three Big Ten teams in the top 10, along with No. 1 Ohio State and No. 2 Indiana. The conference has six teams in the top 25 including No. 17 USC, No. 18 Michigan and No. 21 Iowa. The Ducks will host USC next Saturday, Nov. 22, following a showdown with Minnesota this Friday, Nov. 14, in Autzen Stadium (6:00 p.m. PT, FOX). The Ducks have now made 13 consecutive appearances in the CFP top 10 dating back to 2023, and 26 straight appearances in the CFP top 25 dating back to 2020. Oregon has again established itself as one of the most well-rounded teams in the nation, entering Week 12 as one of just three FBS teams in the top 15 for scoring offense (T-9th, 38.7 PPG), total offense (13th, 471.6 YPG), scoring defense (6th, 13.8 PPG) and total defense (3rd, 239.3 YPG). Additionally, UO owns the nation's top passing defense at 126.1 yards allowed per game, and ranks sixth in rushing offense at 239.67 yards per game. The Ducks have also been one of the nation's top teams in terms of explosive plays on both sides of the ball, leading the country in fewest plays of 20-plus yards allowed (15) while ranking second in offensive plays of 20-plus yards (66). Oregon's overall team grade of 93.6 by Pro Football Focus is fifth-best nationally and third-best in the Big Ten. UO is currently No. 7 in the Associated Press poll and No. 6 in the US LBM coaches poll. College Football Playoff Top 25 - Nov. 11 1. Ohio State (9-0) 2. Indiana (10-0) 3. Texas A&M (9-0) 4.

I hear-ya Duck Buddy. I still miss my beloved Abbie...

Hey...Who Else Loves this Helmet?

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

More testing, as we had issues placing pictures in posts....

"We may sport a 'B1G' badge on our uniforms, but make no mistake, we are interlopers in this conference and we are not welcome here." The officiating highlighted the above quote from your article. Inviting Oregon to the conference would help everyone's bottom line, (most important) and the Ducks would be an entertaining new complement to the B1G. Oregon was assumed to simply be a shiny new object, a novelty to the conference. Then the Ducks go and win the conference in football, win the most Big-10 championships in all sports over the Blue-Bloods in 2024...our first year? NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN. A flood of delayed reactions are being directed at Oregon, from the other conference members, and...

Well, we just blew up the "Oregon isn't physical enough for the Big-10" nonsense, so they have to move to a new denigrating narrative.

The Pride of Portland Oregon...Ryan Cooney! The second baseman from Jesuit HS says, "the sky is the limit for us this year."

The Pride of Sherwood Oregon....Ian Umlandt!

Too much to take notes of...enjoy! Wow...near the 16:20 spot....Waz explains that SEC teams should be Oregon fans....such they like to "DUCK" us. SEC teams do not want to play Oregon on the nonconference schedule! Even if we go to their house!

I certainly don't think we were sandbagging during the Iowa game; with three top receivers lost....we were fighting to win a game, IMHO.

Some interesting discussion by John Canzano and Oregon fans.... Q: Is it possible that Lanning’s team is pacing itself? Is that the secret buried in the flow of this season? A: I spoke with offensive coordinator Will Stein a few weeks ago. Something he said in our conversation stood out. Stein mentioned watching Ohio State play its best football in December and January. We talked about the art and science of that run. I wondered if UO’s plan this season was to slowly rise to meet the challenges and moments each week, but keep its cleats on the turf for when it counts. Q: Do you think the Ducks are sandbagging games to disguise, disrupt, and obfuscate future game opponent strategies? A: There’s no “sandbagging” going on. But I do think Oregon is pacing itself better this season. The substitution patterns with the defensive backs caught my eye earlier this season. You can tell UO’s coaches are playing more players, looking to distribute the snaps, and trying to build toward playing their best football in December and January. It’s what Ohio State did last season.

And none of the finger-pointing is at the prior athletic ADs at OSU and WSU who did not build their brand, and in fact were massively overpaid in their revenue share when looking at what they brought to the conference.
