He could follow in Devon's foot steps and due the 110 hurdles, as tall as he is not much hurdling would be required.

Maybe deal should be they get USC and UCLA but they have to trade us the Big10 refs.

Oh no Pac-12 refs, enjoy what we always have to live with. Best of luck

How's his past coverage skills? Just think what this guy could do in the LB position, talk about sideline to sideline and end zone to end zone. Not to mention his catch radius which would take up a fairly large portion of the field.

I'm just being selfish. Hope he keeps getting better at his craft CB has to be one of the hardest positions to learn to play. He's got the athleticism but he always seems a little slow when it comes to guarding smaller quicker receivers. This last game showed how his instincts have gotten so much better over the year. Go TB!

Give him a few more years at corner and I'm sure he'll be an NFL level guy. Selfishly I want to see him at safety because I believe he could be the next big time playmaker. Safety play was very uninspiring this year.

Every bowl season I'm reminded about how bad PAC 12 refs really are.

I've been one of TBs biggest critics all year glad to see him have a great game. I still think he would be awesome at safety and much better in coverage than Stephens or Addison. I did like what I saw of JJ General.

Will that make Funa a 5 year starter? If memory serves me right he started his freshman year.

I know it's nice to spread the ball around but just give it Bucky.

Got to love Bucks moves!

Go Ducks!

Dan was coaching for National Championship and Jeff was coaching for Big Bowl Game. Dilly was coaching for a team he had been at for less than a year and probably said yes to the job right around the Washington game. MC new he was taking the Miami job around the first Utah game, coincidence I think not. If memory serves me correct Dan said yes to the Oregon job after the regular season, and is a class act for not bailing on his team mentally or physically. Maybe I should quantify it a little more if the coach is leaving for a job of the coach that was fired mid-season and are taking over a complete dumpster fire maybe they should be relieved of responsibilities as they are already probably spending a lot of time figuring out how to pull their new team out of the hole and not so worried about their old team.

Always seams the coaches that are on their way out drop the ball on game planning. To busy getting everything inline for the next job. I'm starting to feel that if a coach is interviewing elsewhere they should be dropped from any team responsibility and let an interim pickup the slack. MC definitely dropped games on his way out.

I think there new new strategy for recruiting QBs should be go after three star and low four-star prospects willing to sit and learn if they don't pan out get a transfer portal QB. No big NIL money upfront for QBs that are unproven. If the three star works out pay him if he doesn't get the best portal QB money can buy. This whole thing is starting to sound a lot more like how I run my business with hiring and firing. The qualified person that wants the big bucks, has a big ego and makes big promises is not always the best person for the position. I personally find that starting someone off at a lower wage and training them myself pays dividends in the long run.

Makes you wonder if what could have been at Oregon had had more help on the D Line.

I'm taking the same route mostly because it will be what it be regardless and I can't take the drama.

Awesome news, can't wait to see how the rest of the Domino's fall! I feel like a positive of NIL money is that guys like Bo can come back for his last year and not miss out on that much money.

Awesome! Big time get.

I think if they had not been thru three different defences and had been coached by Dan from the beginning it would have been different for them. Seams to me that LBs in this system need a high football IQ first and foremost as it's more complicated to know where you need to be on any given play.

It will interesting to see if Bassa, in his second year of this style of D, can fill the role. He definitely needs to get better at tackling, seams like he was in the right place most the time but just tried to hit the guy instead of rapping then up. We really need someone to step into the leadership roll as the D just seamed headless most the time.

This team has needed a Troy Dye type player since Troy left. Could also use a Dominant safety that can lead the backend. The Ducks D had been spoiled with great safeties and we could use another.

Seams the LBs we're dragged into passes coverage way too many times to make up for DBs lack of ability. Not that the D Line helped by getting pressure on the QB making the LBs unable to plug the holes for the run. Classic Chicken or the egg.

Bassa, Brown, and Jacobs can cover the weak link was always Flowe and Sewell in pass coverage. While Jacobs may not be a game changer all by himself He's definitely a step in the right direction. Out of high school he was deemed a pretty good pass rusher as well. Not sure you was asked to do that in Iowa's defense as they had other that could, leaving him to defend TEs. TE is being a major component of passing games and one that gave us fits I'm hoping he frees up other defenders in the past game as he looks like he can lock down most TEs.

I really like the idea Bridges at safety, he's just not fluid enough to be a CB. His top end speed is fine, it's his transitions that are slow and put him behind quick WRs. In zone he sees the feild and can react but gets beat in man a lot. We could definitely use a game changing safety like we've had for do many years prior to this year
