  1. Agree. As a head coach...maybe. Not as a DC.
  2. Sorry, I disagree with your whole premise. Last year, more dB NFL picks from Ducks than in years. Herbert? Sewell? Names ring a bell? The blue chip recruits on offense are just now seeing the field. Wait till Thompson or Butterfield come through next year. As Cristobal builds top recruiting class on top of class, you will see even more NFL success. We've had 3 top recruiting classes, you want to compare to schools who have had a dozen or more, just hold your horses, you will see the results!!
  3. I like the coach Lake part the best.
  4. So it is official. The former Oklahoma qb, Heisman hopeful Spencer Rattler is leaving for an opportunity elsewhere. Should Oregon consider his talents for next year?
  5. I respectfully disagree. While watching lots of points scored in a game is entertaining, I'll take wins. I LOVE what coach Cristobal brings to Oregon. The team is getting better and if we stay healthy, we will win out.
  6. I don't think Lake has the mental "prowess" to think that far ahead. Will say that apparently he had no trust or hope in his offense.
  7. I've told this before, but during construction on Hwy 217 in Beaverton, someone had climbed to the top of road equipment left elevated and hung an Husky flag. It really annoyed me having to drive past it daily. Well, someone else climbed up and spray painted on the flag, "0-12", which had been their record the previous year. After that I couldn't wait to drive by it! I still laugh to this day thinking about it.
  8. Laughable. Every thing about the Huskies is laughable!!
  9. I also believe Mario recruits quality of character, not just good ballers. Aside from the airsoft incident, we have had no serious issues with players. That is good recruiting.
  10. Husky fans are asking the same thing. I hope he gets a chance to meet Kayvon person to person!
  11. He has a strong arm, just not as accurate as we would like.
  12. At this point, it's hard to argue against this. Aside from wanting more accurate downfield throws, AB actually has done well in all other criteria for this award. I think it is a deserved acknowledgement. Go Ducks!!
  13. This is an awesome package! Wish I could take advantage. One day...
  14. Yes, I did give some rehash, but I also addressed the media spin. Sorry. I missed previous discussion. My bad.
  15. Not one tough one. Three tough ones. WSU, Utah, OSU. It ain't gonna be easy.
  16. Poise, not a quitter, doesn't give up, solid runner.
  17. To me, if we boo the "product on the field", because we spend our $ on tickets etc, we have become spectators only and are no longer "fans of college athletics". Most of us are alumni, or long time followers. We cheer "in support" of our student athletes. What ever happened to "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything ". The truth is, while you might be disgruntled with the play calling, the guy next to you who is less educated in actual football knowledge, is unhappy with the player. And who knows, we all hear and see and make our own conclusions. Sports guys, especially the big guns are lazy. They blow into a town and read the notes their staff gives them. In all the years with Chip, Herbie & Co never once understood his offense. Booing your college team, especially when they are 5-1, is news worthy. Autzen fans don't boo as a rule, and at least half the boos were against AB. On a personal note, I've gone back and forth on this issue and I've decided for me, booing is never appropriate under any circumstance. I would really like to see some civility come back as a nation. If we can't do that for our team which we love... ...when can we.
  18. Seems like we are unhappy when he is too conservative in play calling, and now we're unhappy he stayed aggressive. If the play had worked...? We wouldn't even bother with this question. The previous week we gave up long drives in the 4th, against Stanford we did, AB was playing pretty good, I say good call. The previous interception was miscommunication between qb and wr. The endzone shot was just a throw to the wrong side of the wr. It almost was a perfect throw, timing, distance, but alas, to his left, not his right. In this case, I agree with the aggressive play call.
  19. What about Jeff Lockie or Dakota Prukop?
  20. Wasn't the first time we wore black the Halloween game vs USC? That was a fun night game!
  21. Oregon has been on TV more than other schools, particularly the Beavs. Viewership will be off this year cuz Pac12 is pretty bad. And left coast peops aren't crazy rabid about football.
  22. Get them the ball!! They are just now getting targeted by AB. Anything close they catch. They'll produce more as they get a chance too. Both these two have a shot on Sundays.
  23. ESPN does not want a Pac-12 team to do well. They are and always will be anti-oregon. We are the "left coast" in politics and sports. No worries, we can beat them all! Though, having to compete against the refs as well...more troubling.
  24. It tells me he heard the booing. That is an admission of sorts. He can take it, but wants to protect players. I do think saying something right away, he wants to nip this in the bud. Also, you and I know how important confidence is in sport for optimum execution. Perhaps the boos shake up AB, and we don't need that.
