  1. And we’re tied for the 3rd with tOSU in average player ranking, behind FSU and LSU. Having an average of 4 stars means we have the same number of 5 stars as we do 3 stars. Oh, and our 3 stars are both large linemen, for whom 3 stars can still be eite. Our lowest ranked non-lineman is the 21st best corner in the country. Not too shabby. All of tOSU’s 3 stars are skill players. I am much happier with our class than I would be with theirs.
  2. I will say who’s not annoying: Bruins. They know exactly their place (“we’re not a football school”); they know the game; they have a gorgeous stadium; and they just want everyone to have a good time. I can’t wait for Sep 28th at the Rose Bowl!! I highly recommend!!
  3. I think that’s exactly what we’re witnessing. Oregon is becoming a brand as strong as Alabama.
  4. We can’t forget the hideous orange socks!! https://images.app.goo.gl/LnMffGDz8CMjUK7f8
  5. Graves had to be convinced to use the portal by DL. wha?? The portal is so obvious. Graves needs to go.
  6. Good to know—thanks! AI is here…
  7. I gotta say, I do prefer being an underdog. But that’s just my inferiority complex that I have yet to shed since the pre-DL days. Big expectations are great of we can beat them.
  8. I love how U$C fans are blaming NIL _again_. *saracsm below* Why else would someone flip from U$C to GA? U$C has better coaches and a better culture.
  9. Delta added several direct flights from Eugene to Ohio for the Ohio State game. https://forum.fishduck.com/topic/14063-delta-adding-flights-to-help-buckeye-fans-come-to-autzen/
  10. I can’t wait to see the BiG D stats after 4 PAC offenses join the fray. And I can’t wait to see OBD’s D stats after a slate of boring BiG offenses.
  11. Almost as sad as not getting to see Sabrina, Ruthy, and Satou win their ring.
  12. Great post! I nitpick one point… PK’s relationship w UO is not luck. PK came to UO because of its long and rich athletic history. PK started Nike w his track coach at UO. It was Belotti’s fated trip to the ‘94/5 Rose Bowl that brought PK back into the fold.
  13. While he’s only a 3-star, stars are less relevant to linemen. The stars represent potential for immediate impact. A lot of linemen need better nutrition and weight training to reach their potential. But you can’t teach size and brains. And this guy’s enthusiasm is a big plus—he’ll work hard and be a great teammate.
  14. Baby Doll …as in, “Oh, Baby Doll, you didn’t think you actually had a chance to win, did you? There there.”
  15. Think of it this way… If Dante Moore had been a Helfrich recruit, we would have all been in breathless anticipation when he committed. Instead, I was excited about and focused on DG, and DM landed as an incredible bonus.
  16. What leverage do we have to force the SEC to stop cheating? There’s no question their scheduling helps them. What is forcing the B1G to have 9 conference games? Why not take our own initiative and go to 8 conference games?
  17. I agree @Charles Fischer For me, it’s because in the past there were so few blue-chips interested in OBD, that anyone who had us as a finalist was a big deal. Now we have several blue-chip options at every position, so not much to worry about. And the portal is so fun because there’re all these great players I’ve never heard of. I especially love the transfers from obscure lower division schools. You know if DL and crew want them, they must be badasses. The portal doesn’t have as much hype as HS recruiting and the recruiting periods are way shorter. I often don’t even know someone has entered the portal until they’ve committed.
  18. dude—when i was at UO, we had quarter nights—beer was free until someone had to pee…
  19. Wow—FPI sure loves OBD!
  20. “… nonstop flights from Eugene to Austin.” Keep Eugene weird.
