Boise St made noise cuz they were in the Mt West. I always thought that if WSU played the BSU schedule, they would make a bowl every year. And if BSU played WSU schedule, maybe make a bowl 1 out of 3 years. (In the old Pac12) Now the Pac (St)eight is the old Mt West, only with more parity. I see them all beating up on each other and none of them making a playoff, even at 16 teams! Canzano is desperate for Beavis to be relevant. He knows us Duck fans won't ever subscribe to his irrelevant b.s. What a goal, let's be the next Boise St!

Good for him! Most likely get more playing time. Once he's developed, he can always transfer back (nil) to his real "home". Glad he stayed in-state. Easier for mom & dad to watch. He can be a leader in the Pac (St)eight.

Hey, they play the powerful Pac (St)eight! That has to count for something...🤣

I guess they'll call the conference the Pac (St)eight.

He is from Vancouver BC and is friends with the Cowboy's coaches brother. So, friends of family?

Between 8 and 12 million? I don't believe it. Sure, it will cover several states, but gaining a tv viewership?! Really? Barely D1 schools. Don't see any teams making a football playoff. How will they afford the $20.5M athelete payroll? Pac12 indeed! (8)?

And a baseball title. Tired of little brother bragging. 🦫

Softball. For millions $$$. Who would think it?! Well, if you got it, spend it. It's obviously the same with football. In the end, do we really even care? We just want to win baby. Just win.

The quickest way to end women's sports, demand equal pay. I've never been a fan of all women's sports, I know that's not politically correct. But the premise is equal pay for equal work. The game may be the same, but the "work" (play) is not even close to the same. Just have the WNBA champ play the NBA worst team, and see the difference. Oy vey! 🤦‍♂️

I think the new House settlement might influence future portal picks with NIL deals needing to pass inspection. No more "buying" players. Supposedly. Either way, Oregon will end up in good shape. Our qb room now is stacked. Unproven sure, but hugely talented. I'm willing to wait it out. In Lanning & Co. we trust. Though for uncle Phil's sake, I hope we get that Natty soon!

So is there an article that explains all the House settlement decisions? I'm interested in scholarship limits primarily. Does this end walk-on players?

So, most swallows fly 24 - 30 mph, the barn swallow can hit speeds up to 46 mph. In college I worked on a grounds crew cutting grass etc. I would have barn swallows fly low and come right at me and pull up just before me. The first time that happened it was a little unnerving. After it was just fun. They fly like little fighter jets.

The "thrill of victory and the agony of defeat". It was a great season for Duck women softball. Oh how it hurts to be oh, so close! I'm very impressed with #33, P, Lindsey Grein. What a competitor. The whole team was fun to watch. OK. Bring on the football team! Go DUCKS!!

So is this a done deal or still in negotiations? I thought they were considering it only. I think it's funny that hiring the great Riley (at $100M for 10 years) results in this scenario. Traditions be d*#nd! I wonder how long Notre Dame can remain independent. They do have a huge following.

I think Sadiq is already on everyone's radar. Not an unknown.

I completely believe Oregon is getting mistreated because we have won too much in our first year in the B1G.Add to that the lunacy belief that uncle Phil's $$ is the only reason for our success, and you end up with ODS, Oregon derangement syndrome. All we can do is keep winning, I guess. It is hard to schedule a season of games when the standards aren't set the same for everyone. I for one hope we see Beavis again, so that once again we can defeat little brother.

What a great finish! Oregon moves on to Softball World Series!! Come on boys, your turn next!

Ducks WIN!! Ducks WIN!!! WOO HOO!

I totally disagree with the 2 stolen base call outs in this game. Her foot clearly is back on the bag before the pitch. Need rules committee to reevaluate in off season. Very bad calls.

How do you get experienced qb's? They need to play. I like our qb room. Alot. Moore and Novosad are team leaders. They have rapport. They understand the offense. They are both ready to show out what they're capable of. Behind them Moga and freshman Akili Smith are very talented. This is the year we show what's been developed, not use a hired gun approach. We need to continue to attract stud qb's out of high school. This is the way. I'm counting on our O-line to give the boys time to see the plays and develop game experience. Our defense will give the ball back to the offense regularly, this is the year for young qb's. Bo and Dillon were awesome for us. As players and as team leaders. That's not always the case with portal players. Were we lucky, or the coaches that good? If this proves to not be QB-U, then I'm all in with Mr. Fishduck to portal pick more often. But to me, this is the year to see. Dante has had a full off-season to improve, he has some experience from ucla and our d-line and O-line are ready. Is it almost August yet?

So much of success in sports is cerebral. And success is contagious. As would be the reverse. Baseball in my opinion is very cerebral due to success being less than 50%. Always a need to put that last bad at bat behind you, or last pitch. In what other sport would a 30% batting average, (success ratio) be OK? With such a long season, maybe longer periods of ups and downs is inevitable. Whatever their motivation relies on, I hope they continue their stride into the post season.

Sorry. My bad. I guess I read about their semifinal win. Need to do better research. Txs.

It's not a B1G championship, but the acrobatic tumbling team just won a national championship this past weekend. Gotta count for something. 🤷‍♂️

I didn't think Moore was the best qb. I thought Austin Novosad looked good. Even Luke Moga was good. And I like Akili Smith's potential. We have a true qb competition. What think the rest of you?

I know you're absolutely right about this Mr. Fishduck, but sometimes you just want one more hit on that piñata. I guess I can take solace in the final score being 42 - 6. Go Dillon Gabriel. Go Ducks!!
