I'm skeptical of Nix as well. IMO, most impressive in the Spring Game was Butterfield.

I'm sure there will be a video soon, but here's a link to the transcript: http://asaptext.com/asap_media/media/1078/1300/transcripts/123251.pdf

Thought this was interesting given the connection between the two programs now. I also think Miami is going to make a big jump, and hopefully the Ducks can take down the Utes this year. What are the best bets for the 2022 college football season? - ESPN Video WWW.ESPN.COM Erin Dolan breaks down the best bets for the 2022 college football season and why the Miami Hurricanes could surprise people.

Entertaining from First Take: 'Get a freaking clue!' First Take gets heated about Miami and the SEC - ESPN Video WWW.ESPN.COM Chris "Mad Dog" Russo, Paul Finebaum and Dan Orlovsky make their case for who the SEC's top target should be.

the Ohio State University is the team I hate the most. I did not think my hatred could get any more powerful (cue Emperor Palpatine), but recent events prove I can loathe them even more: Ohio State University officially wins trademark for the word 'THE' WWW.NBCNEWS.COM After years of legal wrangling, OSU was awarded trademark protection for the three-letter article from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Thought these articles had great analysis. I realize they're about a month old, so hoping this hasn't already been shared: "Film Study of OC Kenny Dillingham: Playbook Design" - Part 1 Duck Tape: Film Study of OC Kenny Dillingham, Part 1: Playbook Design WWW.ADDICTEDTOQUACK.COM A review of three seasons as OC under Mike Norvell at Memphis and Florida State "Film Study of OC Kenny Dillingham: Quarterback Coaching" - Part 2 Duck Tape: Film Study of OC Kenny Dillingham, Part 2: Quarterback Coaching WWW.ADDICTEDTOQUACK.COM A review of the last six years as QB coach, including Bo Nix’s SEC Rookie of the Year season

Have always been a big fan. Nice to see him get to play football again. Philadelphia Eagles sign Olympic hurdler and former Oregon Ducks WR Devon Allen to 3-year deal WWW.ESPN.COM The Philadelphia Eagles signed Olympic hurdler Devon Allen, a former receiver with the Oregon Ducks, to a three-year deal, the team announced Friday.

I like seeing these things happen with a program. Build unity; play for each other:

I watched every game I could that year. Was awesome to follow. The thing that stands out most was Jamie Moyer, the guy who's fastest ball traveled between 85-88 mph somehow dominated that year. Then the freakin' Yankees ruined it all.

It's rare for me to find anyone who dislikes BOTH Walton and Vitale, but I'm with you 100%. Vitale may be iconic to NCAA BB, but it's torture listening to him.

Not a fan! I don’t like announcers that put the spotlight on themselves more than the game and players. I like commentary that gives us the “what”, the “why”, the “how”, and strategies/plays that might come next. Gold Standard (IMO): Tony Romo I watch next to no college basketball anymore, but when I did watch more regularly in the past, I remember not being offended/annoyed by Jay Bilas.

Given all the recent discussion, I'll go with: Oregon vs. USC - October 31, 2009 I attended college at BYU, so needless to say, I was not surrounded by a bunch of Duck fans; none among my roommates. My roommates were all out at Halloween parties while I partied alone screaming at the TV and shaking our condo while jumping up and down screaming and cheering . . . All while ignoring Trick-or-Treaters who knew someone was home, haha, poor kids. Link to Highlights: Part 1 Part 2

Some thoughts and observations: - Look at all the RED for Cristobal. While recruiting the most/best talent to UO we've ever seen, he managed to underperform his predecessors' offensive production. - I know we don't speak highly of Willie T, but his offense in 2017 (a year when Herbert missed 5 games) managed to match or outperform every one of Cristobal's. - Man!! If only Helfrich could have figured out the recruiting/leadership/defense side of things, because, WOW! he could coach an offense. There's a lot of GREEN in his years, left to right. Perhaps benefited most from Mariota? - One more Helfrich shoutout: The offense from the year that got him fired was better than any under Cristobal. - So much GREEN in the Kelly/Helfrich years. Hoping the future is bright "GREEN" with Lanning & Co.
