It's very likely already having an impact on some of the kids who are considering Oregon. How could it not be? It's a big deal. The Pac 12 landscape has changed.

Geat news for the Pac12. Not such great news for the Ducks. If Riley can bring his freshman quarterback with him, he's set. That kid can play.

If Mario stays we keep bringing in top talent. We give our young qb valuable experience in 2022 and probably win 9-10 games.
2023 we would have a legitimate shot at the natty
If he leaves for Florida LSU or usc get ready for a lot of Sun Bowls.
I have to agree to disagree here. Because with Mario, I don't see any chance of the Ducks winning a national championship. In my opinion, there are very few coaches who can make the other team look as good as Mario does.

The problem with this logic is the new transfer rules…
If Mario leaves, so does a lot of our top talent and about half of this year’s incoming recruiting class.
so yes we would probably win 6 or 7 games next year.
Quite possibly. But we're already losing top talent, through decommits, the portal, and the ineffective use of the players on the field and bench.

Yikes! With Florida and possibly The U job both opening the chances are even higher that Cristobal packs up at the end of this season and moves back to the climate he is accustomed to.
I don't see that happening, but I'll keep my fingers crossed. One can hope.

I’m pretty sure there are at least 9 in the PAC 12 and well over 2/3 of existing coaches nationwide that coach worse than MC.
I'd have to see how those coaches performed with the resources the Duck program has before I could agree with you. Heck, the Stoney Brook coach looked pretty good compared Mario.

Sorry I can't buy the multiple .500 seasons. Oregon could hire a quality coach that if MC left today should be able to come in and take the talent we have and do well.
Exactly! It's not like a new coach would be walking into a dumpster fire of a program. Even if they can't recruit at Mario's level, they'd be hard pressed to coach any worse than he does.

He’s got his 5-star QB for next season….. hopefully he’ll take the shackles off.
Don't get your hopes up. It would be completely out of character. Too much risk.

He's extremely overvalued. And, unfortunately, he refuses to learn from his mistakes. We have a very good chance of losing our next game. And even if we don't, do you truly believe we'll beat Utah in a rematch? I don't.

He is a mediocre at best head football coach.
Even his wins, more often than not, have been painful to watch.

What a bozo. Lake tries to insult the Ducks and instead assaults the English language. His "more academically prowess teams" comment is a grammatical nightmare. Instead of giving interviews that embarrass his school, maybe he should attend a few freshman English classes.

I hate booing. I think it's bush league and classless. And I'll stick with old adage "the ends don't justify the means."

"It was a hard-fought game," Thibodeaux said. "We love games like that, being able to be out there playing to the last whistle. It was exciting. There was so much going on. I love it."
Great quote.

UCLA 31-17, 0, 2, 190. My earlier optimism proved transient.

If we were 5-1 with a loss at the shoe would we be happier?
First, let me say that while I may not agree with your comments all the time, I certainly enjoy reading them.
As for the question, and speaking for myself, no. I wouldn't be happier. Not if everything else remained the same. It goes back to what Charles said, it's "the way we arrived at 5-1." And all that implies for the future.

We are not unhappy with 5-1, but the way we arrived at 5-1 and the implications going forward from what we have seen.
Exactly! To confuse this concept with the idea that fans are spoiled is actually rather insulting (even if it's not meant to be). Please give us more credit than that.

“We’re never going to reach the standard that we set for this offense,” Oregon offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead said.
What??? If they can't even reach their "standards" how in the world are they going to reach their "goals."
Misspoke? Fair enough. But if he meant to say "goals," that brings up the question of why set completely unachievable goals? What's the point? It's a meaningless activity. And why would anyone buy-in to make believe goals? They won't. It's just a joke. And if that's a window into the coaching staffs' thought processes, it reveals a lot. None of it good.

Duck alum, too. And I swear I'm not trying to be a homer, but I think we're going to get the win. Go Ducks!

The NIL thing will begin to influence where kids go to school. There will be huge upsides to being in a large media market. L.A. will once again dominate the Pac 12.
Such a great point. And I think a lot of people failed to recognize the negative impact this will have on schools outside of the large media markets.

"Mario Cristobal has held the Oregon Offense down better than any defense since Auburn of 2010!"
That really says it all.

And how many Ducks post 2021 will head to the portal?
Ouch.

Frustration is one thing, but booing the kids is bush league. In my book, that's not being a true fan. And I don't care how much a ticket cost. If someone is that dissatisfied, they need to stay home and find another bandwagon to jump on.
Just my humble opinion....but I say that as someone who sat through the 0-0 Civil War tie...in the rain...so I think that counts for something.

No confidence at all. I just don't see it happening. He's a great recruiter, but not a particularly good coach. Despite having superior talent on his roster, there have been far too many times when he's made the opposing team look good. Frankly, he seems to have a knack for it.

Absolutely. The kid is amazing.
