Oregon Ducks Football: Will Bo Nix Start?
Thanks, Alex. Imagine a Ducks top 10 QB and WR in the league? Dan Fouts 3rd round draft pick, No. 64, in 1973. He retired in 1987 and was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1993. Chargers coach Don Coryell and Dan revolutionized the NFL downfield passing game. Ahmad Rashad was the 1st round, No. 4 pick of the Saint Louis Cardinals in 1972. An RB at Oregon from Tacoma, Washington, Rashad switched to WR in the pros and played in 4 Pro Bowls. Both men went on to NFL broadcasting careers, Everything I'm reading from Pro Football Focus and the other 'experts,' say it will be all systems GO for BO to start for the Broncos. There is a lot to be excited about while waiting (SIGH) for both the Ducks and the NFL seasons to begin. Denver's opening regular season game comes on 9/8/24 on the road in Seattle. Go Ducks! Vanquish the Vandals. Autzen Stadium on 8/31/24. Thanks again.

Gabriel's Former Coach Weighs in on What Oregon is Getting (and Keep Scrolling for Several Articles on the Ducks)
Thank you, Stevan. Where do they find these guys? 14,865 yards passing/ 125 TDs/ 26 Ints./ 63.1 completion % /1060 rushing yards/ 26 ranking TDs/ 2023 All B12 QB, not playoff QB Quinn Ewers at Texas. It may have been a long journey for Dillon but he is hardly a 'journeyman.'

Oregon Football Ranks Top 3: Highest Preseason Expectations This Decade
What in the name of Cheech and Choong was the FPI algorithms smoking? 5 SEC teams in the playoff field could certainly happen. However, Oklahoma and Tennessee are in. LSU, Ole Miss, and Missouri are out? This by far, is the worst preseason ranking I have seen for Ole Miss and the highest that I have seen for Oklahoma. Oklahoma plays Auburn, Ole Miss, Missouri, and LSU on the road and Texas in Dallas. Tennessee and Alabama visit Oklahoma. Oklahoma has a QB whose only start was in a bowl loss to Arizona where the young man threw for over 300 yards but also threw 3 picks. Every OL starter in the bowl game is gone. BTW, where is Utah? The other ESPN computer, Bill Connolly's SP+ is a more accurate predictor of future results. Bill has four SEC teams in the playoff field, Georgia, Texas, Alabama, and Ole Miss. Bill also has four B1G teams in the field, Ohio State, Oregon, Michigan, and Penn State. The ACC's SEC would be the 3-seed with Utah being the 4th-seed. Georgia is No. 1 in the FPI and SP+ which I understand. IMO, the FPI rankings of the SEC are off-the-wall. Thanks for the post.

SERIOUSLY? Dan Lanning Needs to 'Get Out of Oregon?'

SERIOUSLY? Dan Lanning Needs to 'Get Out of Oregon?'
HUH? This article pops up on Yardbarker on the first day of the June critical recruiting period. This is Sense-Less. Dan Lanning needs to get out of Oregon before it's too late WWW.YARDBARKER.COM Oregon’s head football coach, Dan Lanning, is one of the best and youngest coaches in the game. He is heading into his third season with the Ducks, but he should be counting his days in Eugene.. OK, there's Brain Dead and then there is Daniel Fisher (not Fischer,) straight out of Gridiron Heroes. Based on this effort, Gridiron Heroes should be renamed Gridiron Zeros. "No question Oregon is one of the most famous college brands." I guess Danny noted that Oregon was the 7th most-watched college football program in 2023, with over 4M folks tuning in on average for every game. But having played for a BCS and a Playoff title means the job at Oregon stinks, right? Dan is making $7M a year which increases to $8M a year in 2028. He should blow this off and leave for one of only three decent jobs in CFB. If you are not the head coach at multiple Playoff title winners Alabama, Clemson, or Georgia, you're in the wrong place, right? It's obvious Eugene has a problem because Chip Kelly left for more money and a place where he didn't have to recruit, Mark Helfrich was fired because he couldn't do the job, better to keep him on a finish sub-.500? Slick and Mari(o) left for dream jobs and more money than now disillusioned boosters would be willing to pay. How about the Slick return on investment at FSU? How about the U's return after paying the most money ever for a private school head coach? The B1G is tougher than last season's Pac-12. Oregon will be the 5th brand team in the B1G. Danny, get your Sierra together. I don't know about Gridiron Heroes preseason top 25, but I have not seen a preseason poll where Oregon finishes worse than second in the B1G and outside the 2024 playoff. And of course, coaching in the SEC at Bama gives one a much easier road to a title. By the way Danny, are you aware that Mrs. Lanning and Dan once lived in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and it just may be that they prefer Eugene? You probably were not out of diapers so trust me when I tell you that between Bear Bryant and Saint Nick, Alabama kind of sucked. Danny, if you go off of your meds again and need help, please do not call 1-OBD-GET-HELP. Ditto for the jerks at Yardbarker who recycle this garage instead of taking it straight to the dump/ . Have a really nice day.
