The rumor is they’re going after Belichik when the season ends.
This is joke, right?

I just gave up because I couldn’t tell the difference between him and some fan who was fast asleep.
Exactly this!
Compare him to Mulkey—it’s not good.

I am just glad they got rid of the GM. He’s made several bad coaching hires.
But it would be just like the Chargers to go from bad to worse. I could seem them hiring Riley.

I have to say it's wild still to think that we're going to playing Ohio St. next year at Autzen in a league game, then going to Michigan and Wisconsin, and finally ending the season at home against Washington.
I could not agree more!
Maybe it’s just recency bias, but I am so over playing the mountain, desert, and bay area teams. They are all downside and no upside.
I am sooooo excited to play all these midwest and east coast teams.

Did Lanning really verbally accept the Oklahoma job?
I was wondering the same thing

It was both coaching and execution in summary
I agree with all your points.
I would add that when a team fails to execute, that’s on the coaches.
OBD have a superior roster to almost every other FBS team and def UW.
If OBD players don’t “execute,” it’s not bc they didn’t try hard enough or were too weak or didn’t do enough film study.
It’s bc the coaches didn’t prepare them.

It's telling that Sabrina's employment with the Ducks was announced within days of Sedona's departure
I tried looking it up but didn’t find anything about Sabrina working for OBD.

Brock Purdy’s success bodes well for Bo.
I think (hope) Bo goes 1st round to the Rams.

“Miami coach Mario Cristobal garnered Bottom 10 infamy for his late-game decision against Georgia Tech.”
Brutal!!

Bring Sabrina back as HC!
She would make way more money than she does in the WNBA.
And who cares if she doesn’t have any experience—she’d rock it!

Who is going to be left to play with Bo on January 1st?
Oh no! Are they also foregoing the bowl game?? Seems like they would all want to play one more time together.

I had hoped we’d see JPJ in a Duck jersey for another year.
Pretty amazing that he could win the Rimington in his first year starting.
Next man up…

My theory is that Campbell was the main recruiter and game coach - perhaps also the main practice coach. He had good success at Sacramento State and is now turning around the program at TCU. I think he was a key cog on the staff and is missed.
Sabrina and Campbell covered for Graves’ ineptitude.
I have never been a Graves fan, even during the Sab years.
His game-time demeanor is both cranky and uninspired.
Graves had the luxury of riding the coattails of Ionescue to look like a genius.
It’s long past time for Graves to go.

When Mari-no-O left, DeBoer was at the top of my list for OBD. I was extremely impressed with DeBoer’s work at Fresno State.
I was disappointed and scared when I learned DeBoer was headed to UW. (While I was thrilled that Riley was headed to U$C.)
When it became clear DL was gonna be our guy, I was pleased and excited.
With all that said, I do think DL has a KD problem.
I’ve seen a lot of people saying that DL had a good game plan but OBD didn’t execute.
It is the coach’s job to teach players how to execute. And on paper, OBD has better players.
So if Fusky players executed better, it was bc they were better coached.
However, I am impressed with DL’s improvement from year 1, and I KNOW that DL is learning from KD.
I am
that DL will eventually flip the script and beat KD consistently.

That looks like the stylesheet isn’t loading. It’s most likely performance-related.
Thanks again for all you do for the forum!!!

the CFP right now favors one loss teams over anyone with two losses. Championship games are a liability for a lot of teams and will continue to be.
With the larger playoff, it opens the door door for 2-loss conf champs.
That certainly would have benefited the PAC.
And w the B1G eliminating divisions, that might be a help down the line.

That is such an all time favorite Duck quote for me.

Classic!
Unfortunately, Cliff is presumed to have CTE and was in jail last I read.

I hope he gets help and finds safer coping mechanisms.

For the season, OBD are #4 ATS at 9-2-1.
Fuskies are 5-6-0, which is so low it was too hard to count the rank.
So it seems that if anyone is being underestimated, it’s OBD.

@QuackAttack, I haven’t seen anything from the CFP committee to suggest your result.
From the first week, OBD have been the top 1-loss team.
As each other team loses, they are dutifully ranked behind OBD.
I actually think there are reasons to rank other 1-loss teams above OBD, but I will not describe them bc they aren’t worthy.

My dream scenario:
#3 OR defeats #2 MI in the Rose Bowl
#1 GA defeats #4 TX in the Sugar Bowl
OR avenges last year by whooping GA in the Natty
A girl can dream…
As an aside, I think the powers that be (aka networks) are also dreaming of this scenario.

Ruh-Roh! Washington's Recruiting Class is WORSE than Vanderbilt's?

Was everyone clamoring for Penix from Indiana?
I don’t remember hearing about it if they were.
KD was masterful w the portal at Fresno St, when it was waaaaaaaaay more difficult to use.
Maybe other coaches have caught up to him w the portal, but I wouldn’t doubt any team KD put on the field until I see it.
