I am pretty stoked to have heard this in the interview on Wednesday, and fun to read about it and more. It is a deceptive title, but there are good points to consider. Dan Lanning Fully Expects to Continue Oregon's History of Offensive Innovations by Don Smalley of Ducks Wire

He makes some good points, but to get the grade he gave--we needed a boatload more 4 and 5-Star players than what we signed, IMHO. Agree? Oregon Football: Grading Dan Lanning’s 2022 Recruiting Class by Connor Muldownery of Autzen Zoo

So Adia Barnes is portrayed as the "good-guy" here, and Graves is the bad guy? Is it going to even be safe for Coach Graves to be there? He will be considered "against" women? This is not good...

Hey VM3...great to have you on-board, and do post often. WELCOME!

No...we don't need the Huskies to be good for something like 15 years to even up the rivalry numbers. For now...I would like the Ducks to be the PNW champions...and the hated rival of USC in the national eye.

Life is good, the world is in order again and the OBD forum exhales its relief at our own CalBear95 returning. I don't know how anyone could write it better...what we all feel. I think we are going to owe Rob Mullens in a BIG way before this is over, as I cannot believe the gap he has created versus nearly all the conference already. Whether we win a 'Natty with him or not....we as fans will get to see a TON of WINNING at Oregon!

The Huskies were out-recruited by... New Mexico Kent State Central Michigan Georgia Southern It's Gotta Hurt...

Wowsa. I don't have the article--from another site... “The Huskies have crossed their collective fingers that Kalen DeBoer’s first recruiting class is sneaky-good. We’ll believe it when we see it, frankly. For now, UW’s recruiting class doesn’t appear good enough — not nearly good enough — to support future success. Nor does it compare in quality to those of USC and Oregon, which also underwent coaching changes. In our view, the Huskies have a damaged brand, both within Washington and across the Pac-12 footprint. The speed of the salvage operation will determine the success of the DeBoer era once it matures in Years Three and Four“ "I'll just give that pooch from Oregon a nudge...

A very talented 360 pound 3-Star....again you can find guys that big, but strong, athletic and quick? Georgia is in the middle of the prime recruiting ground for D-Linemen, and it is quick and easy to get there in the Southeast. Levitt wanted to run a true 3-4 defense, but could not get the Nose Tackle out of the South he needed. He tried, and we were close...

Recruiting defensive line is so hard, and Danno is going to see how hard it is to pull the Big-Boys away from Mama's cooking in the South. I would be looking in Hawaii and Samoa as well....

Amen to that, and FamilyofDucks--do post often and WELCOME! And...Georgia had a 360 pound defensive tackle in the 'Natty, so maybe Coach Lanning wants a player who demands double-teams? A true Nose-Tackle has been hard to recruit to Oregon because there are so few of them.

You learn more about him, as he can become a key part of Lanning's new defense.

Thanks kirklandduck for bringing this as I believe Lanning had some subtle stuff thrown into his conversation as well.

GREAT reminder, and you are quite right, as this IS big. If Oregon has a great year next year--we could poach some more from WA.

I would....Oregon always wins!

Bringing in two defensive linemen from the Portal tells me that Coach Lanning is concerned about the depth and talent on the defensive line. I think it is warranted, because after Dorlus and Popo...the depth has a ton of inexperience, AND they are very light in weight as I pointed out a few times last fall. I read somewhere that Taki from the north was brought in to start? Ah, how many defensive tackles are we going to have? I thought Dorlus and Popo were starters there? Note he was not going after DE/OLBs in the Portal, but defensive tackles. Now this 5-Star DT becomes available? Behold the Lanning-Love that awaits him! You want me to tell to you about Oregon?

Be still my heart. Get 'him Danno!

Yuk!

I amended what Log Haulin started at the top, and I cannot convey enough to all Oregon fans....that video is absolutely KILLER for the Oregon fan. Not rah-rah, but the information... And the offensive coordinator could not have made things more exciting to me....impossible. Coach Boles is going to have a BALL breaking this down over the off-season! If you don't watch it--you will really miss a ton of insight--wow. And THANKS to Log Haulin for posting it! This Oregon Coach (left) is VERY Impressive...

We have EPIC games set up in the future....MUST-SEE TV...

Go to this thread...and GREAT to have you back. We missed you!

Thanks for giving me a pass; I am doing that often because when we follow AP (Associated Press) Style...we are much more apt to have our forum thread show up in a Google search. AP Style is capitalizing the first letter in EVERY word, even in quotes, except for the words like "in, is, the, a, etc." And we capitalize the first letter in the last word. This is how a number of people have found us lately...by Google Searches for a particular Oregon subject and we show up. If done over time... It helps us!

On the return game alone--he can help us now!

Of course I'm obsessed with the Huskies....they are a MAJOR source of my entertainment! They get sassy and.....
