"Maybe the only thing I can do...is take everything he's got...and he's has to have the heart to stand in front of me..." (A minute video) Speaking of music....the scene after--he goes for a drive (below) with the song, "There is No Easy Way Out" which is superb, with wonderful flashback moments--thanks for the great memories Darren!

Fantastic. It works to take us to Facebook and view the videos from there, and THANKS for posting it. I sure hope Coach Graves gets the "go-ahead" from the NCAA soon, and it would interesting to see this player on the floor.

I dumped them in the past because it was so little revenue and more hassle than I wanted. But the numbers of the last month do bring that issue back to the forefront...but even then--they pay very little. It is SO NICE to have a clean site with no pop-up ads or videos. Or no blaring ads for male enhancement or Ukrainian brides on the side margin. And I have no control over what they post for ads...

A better start than I ever could have imagined after only two months! I will NOT do this every month, but thought I would report this now, and leave it up for a few days and then take it down. In November of 2020, we had posts, or comments below articles on FishDuck. In November of 2021 we have posts of all topics in the Our Beloved Ducks forum. Number of Posts in November of 2020: 2,311 or an average of 77 per day Number of Posts in November of 2021: 6,023 or an average of 200 posts per day! Holy Crap! Pageviews/hits per day in November of 2020: 4,099 Pageviews/hits per day in November of 2021: 11,601! (This is a total from both sites, and is quite unbelievable) My friends...this is very good from a number of different angles. But the important thing is that we keep this forum "polite and respectful," as every post is read and the four moderators and I are there to protect you. I want to see all opinions on every topic, and will protect those with the minority opinion unlike anywhere else. So many people are realizing it is safe, and now are posting for the first time. Join them! It is a ton of time and work, but I am thrilled with the results and I just love this community of passionate Oregon fans. As you know, there are no ads, so I get no compensation for pageviews, and there is no compensation for posts --and the goal is...to build a unique community that is safe from the nastiness of the rest of the world. Can YOU Help? My friends, I have provided the platform and do a ton of daily work with it--can you do your part? 1) Consider helping at being a moderator, as it is easy. As you read posts, you will click a box (not visible to you now) that it has been moderated and that's it! If you can read and click...you can moderate! We need many more moderators to make this easy on everyone. Email me charles@fishduck.com 2) Can you throw $100.00 into the pot to help offset the site expenses?

The Mens Basketball team takes on UC Riverside tonight at 7:00 PM on the Pac-12 Network. The local paper listed Donte as a starting, and wrote about how Will Richardson and Dana Altman had a heart-to-heart to get some things going again on offense. Dana said it was his fault...that he did not get Will in the spots in the offense so he can be aggressive! Fun to watch this...

I am not positive, but I believe they have male players to practice against--not on the Mens team, but among the staff? I am guessing--anyone else know?

This forum is better when UtahDuck is posting often! Great to see you!

Quietduck...you framed the question well--to get more information without offending. For a first post--you get us! Please post often and WELCOME!

Darren, I echo how I loved to read that and that movie hits the profile of so many that read here. I can still hear Mick's gravely voice saying, "he'll knock you into tomorrow, Rock." I know you had that quote in the article, but I loved it. And the music! The next movie against the Russian had some epic music in it as well. So true...it is such a fascinating game to consider... Try to watch this short tribute to the move and NOT get fired up!

A couple of articles are stating this today such as this one from The Score that seem pretty certain, and... Oregon Expected to Lose OC Joe Moorhead After Pac-12 Title Game by Matt Zemek of Trojan Wire

To clarify for certain to all: Oregon starts three receivers each game, and Williams is one of those three-- is what I attempted to convey.

Devon Williams is the third starting receiver. One is the X receiver, one is the Y, and one is the slot. Sorry for the confusion.

The Athletic Department sends out an updated depth chart...and it is hard to know just how accurate it is. But I will report some notable things that stuck out to me... One Wide Receiver starter is either Troy Franklin or Dont'e Thornton...true freshman or true freshman! Another WR starter is Kris Hutson, backed up by Seven McGee (Devon Williams is the third WR) One TE is either Terrance Ferguson or Spencer Webb 2nd TE is either Moliki Matavao or DJ Johnson....he's coming back? They switched George Moore back to tackle, and TJ Bass back to guard? Ryan Walk is back at right guard, and Jones or Sala start at RT On defense the starters listed are who you expect, but they do list Sewell as a starter...either a decoy or for real? Spencer Webb No. 18...really good TE play this year!

Remember...they have not even hired a new Athletic Director yet. Miami is 7-5 and beat North Carolina , North Carolina State, Pittsburg and Virginia Tech winning five out of their last six games.

Kelly Graves speaking on another site with a tidbit we have not heard, and sounds quite interesting... Taylor Hosendove has yet to make her Oregon debut after transferring from Georgia State. Since Hosendove, a third-team All-Sun Belt selection in 2020-21, had already transferred from one four-year institution to another (from Clemson to Georgia State in 2018) the immediate transfer rule does not apply in this case, and she has been awaiting a transfer waiver to be ruled upon by the NCAA. “I think we’re in that window where we should get an answer. It could be as we speak. I’m very hopeful. It’s in the very last stage, so we could hear any time now," Graves said. “We could really use her. She’s tearing us up in practice. She’s playing with the guys and she’s the best one on that side. It’d be nice if she was playing for us."

I thought Utah might be higher, but they are the highest ranked three-loss team. College Football Playoff Rankings

We love you anyway! Besides there might be a few others of us that are "confident."

What a great post with such a superb visual created at the end. And it is true.

OK....that was painfully true.

DUCKBILL....it is great to see you posting, and yes...we all think it has become crazy. But what can I say? I LOVE college football and Our Beloved Ducks! And we will be having the official Oregon press releases, article links pertaining and posts in this forum about Womens Basketball this winter and spring.

Well, since both Utah and Oregon are similar in how they want to pound the running game with play-action passing...I would like to think it will affect both in a similar way. I am wondering how many Duck fans are going to be there; will the Utes drown out our Ducks?

Awkward! I do feel for the players though, who made their selection of college based on who was coaching them. How will our quarterbacks feel if/when Moorhead leaves?

Jon...you bring up a really good question. We are doing fine without the Pistol, which makes Mastro expendable and certainly not promotable, IMHO. Yet my analysis article yesterday shows real vision and jump-cutting by both Dye and the young-gun Cardwell, thus some good RB coaching taking place. But to offer my thoughts on your question--I think Coach Boles listed him because it would make sense that he would apply and Mario would have to consider him.
