Charles Fischer

A'Mauri Washington or Bear Alexander? We do have Jericho Johnson and some other young guns. Click on "Repository" at the top of the front page of the forum, then on ChileDuck Depth Chart for more options...

Still unknown, as details are being worked out. But at the moment the rumor is that he WILL return, and we will get an announcement soon regardless of his decision. He is allowed another year due to the new JUCO rule, and a second year in the system will help his coverage skills that much more. If this turns out true, then we will return a pretty experienced secondary... He is a very sure open-field tackler...

Meh. I get it, as it is tough as a writer finding topics at this time. That was pretty good clickbait that has some truth--dependent upon how you view it. My take? Fisch performed a MIRACLE at Arizona, as they were so bad for so long and he was actually able to recruit great players there. He coached them up to be in the top 15 in the nation in a short time. He is a great coach who will be trouble for us in the future, no doubt. In the meantime...

Jon, I believe Ohio State had more talent that was matured to the position that they are through primarily high school recruiting. I believe we are on that track, but our talent has not yet come to full maturity. As they do, we will take less from the portal.

In 2023, Lanning signed 14 Portal transfers, in 2024 it was 12, and in 2025 it is nine. As our young talent emerges, we will take fewer from the portal as we thought would occur. I believe we always will take some portal talent, but more like what Ohio State is doing now. If the Buckeyes are doing it with the incredible Blue-Chip roster they have, I am sure the Ducks will continue.

Coach Cronin...if you have soft players, and soft assistant coaches....WHO hired the coaches? WHO decided which players to recruit? WHO is responsible?

The article says he does, if he applies for a medical redshirt for this past year. (Cam McCormick knows a ton about that) But he has not announced yet if he is applying, or if he has--or his plans. If not available, then I thought David luli did a decent job at right guard, and will be better for his senior year.

Nebraska was ranked last year, and went to the NCAA tournament as Indiana did. I do believe that USC is going to make noise and be ranked later--as well as be a tough series for us. The four former Pac-12 teams will elevate the baseball in the B1G, especially Oregon! All-Time Home Run King, Jacob Walsh is Back!

When you consider Bear Alexander transferring to Oregon's defensive line....Trojan teammates will face off in practice at Oregon!

Another couple of tasty-tidbits from On3... The 6-foot-6, 297-pound Pregnon played in all 13 of the Trojans’ games this season. He finished with USC’s highest PFF overall grade on offense and as a pass blocker. For his efforts, he was named a 2024 All-Big Ten Second Team selection.

Other notes about the Top-25....Oregon State is No. 7 and we play them in a four game series in late April to improve both programs RPI rankings. Only two B1G teams are in the Top 25: Oregon at No. 12 and Nebraska at No. 24 Grayson Grinsell is back, and the Friday starter!

He was considered by many to be the top OL in the portal, and just finished a visit to Texas...and went with Oregon! He was the starting guard at USC this past year, allowed no sacks, and was known as their best OL with an NFL future. In one action...we torqued off USC and Texas fans. Love it!

Huge...absolutely huge for the 2025 offense. Very few crossed fingers about the offensive line now!

He is smart doing this, as I've been following him since last summer and he has some good impressions. He knows the conference down cold, thus can give us accurate perceptions. He calls this channel--not Delivering Ducks, or Oregon Quacks, but...."That Show Out West." Love it!

Ducks are a good program now, with many in MLB from Oregon!

You gotta be kidding me...we finished the last two years at No. 12 in the nation in the D1Baseball poll, and we start this year in the same spot? THAT is continuity my Duck-Buddies, as Oregon returns SEVEN of the nine starters in the field, with a slew of hitters and pitchers acquired in the Portal. BATTER UP! Single game tickets are only $7.00! The schedule is right here with some dandies!

Possible! But I'm just enjoying 15-2...

Ruh-Roh! This could change things...

Agreed, as the Cal QB that Cignetti got is good, and I agree with Jon about Illinois.

Rutgers and Minnesota ahead of USC? Trojan fans are good with it...

Six B1G teams in the top-25 is pretty good....only problem is that they are in the bottom half of the 25! Strong conference though...

More! Speed and moves!
