Why would the coaches NOT go with a portal QB with much experience than Dante Moore this year? I believe it could revolve around one of three reasons.. 1) Our coaches have seen what Moore and Novosad can do in practice, and have a belief about them performing nearly as well as a portal QB. 2) The class of portal QBs out there is not as strong as in the past. There is no obvious Bo Nix or Dillon Gabriel available, thus what we have is not much different than what is available? 3) Promises were made to Dante Moore when recruited to sit on the bench for a year, and then take over without a portal QB to contend with? Keep in mind that not all the portal players have materialized yet, and won't until their season is over. Interesting to watch for later... Dante Moore

Everyone keep in mind that more players will be entering the portal as their teams lose in the Playoffs, Bowl Games, etc. We also do not yet know if Jordan James or Josh Conerly Jr. are returning, and that impacts portal recruiting in a big way for those positions.

This is a big advantage for a team like Oregon, both for portal additions and late period signings! I'm sure the NCAA will act to take it away ASAP!

Go to 16 teams, as we are playing four rounds as it is now. No bye for anyone, as No. 1 plays No. 16 in the first round, etc. Seeding becomes legit! Second option: go to 14 teams, with the No. 1 and No. 2 seed sitting out the first round. Conference champions are automatically in the Playoff, but could be seeded No. 16, as Boise State should be now.

How the B1G really feels about Oregon.... No problem. I'll just eat another hamburger...(A B1G opponent)

That's right! Our first portal transfers were from Purdue and Northwestern!

This sums it up...

Oh, the swagger!

Do note how I will change the color of the Pinned Post when a complete new humor thread is up. Note also that I will be adding to it over the next couple of days... ------------------------------------------------- How do they come up with this below?

The resentment to the new power at the table is only just beginning. By the time this sports year is over--B1G members will be SICK of hearing about Oregon. (I resemble that)

Actually, I am comfortable with how David luli has done, and it helps for next year, as he is a junior.

The bye week was bad enough, but going another two weeks for a Duck football game? Damn! The season has flown past, and when you're winning...you just can't get enough. The offseason will be BRUTAL!

When it comes to Our Beloved Ducks, we love obscure! You pose a good question, and I do not know the answer.

Yep, over on the On3 site, they had some Message Board Geniuses questioning this transfer. Have we had a bust on any of our portal transfers under Dan Lanning? You'd think some fans would learn by now that Dan Lanning has earned out trust. And he won't be 100% right, but he does better than most!

"He’s 2nd team All-Conference. In our conference. Like, ahead of all our guys. He’s put up 700 snaps better than anything any returner for 2025 on our roster has ever put up." "He’s faster than all our WR except Tez. This is a home run."

He will have one season of eligibility remaining. While at Northwestern Johnson played in 33 career games. In those games he recorded 96 total tackles, 20 pass breakups and 3 interceptions. He also recorded 5.5 tackles for loss. He was named to All-Big Ten second-team for the 2024 season.
