  1. I wanna see what Luke Moga can do with a full playbook and live tackling. He could be a serious dark horse.
  2. Our office took bets yesterday on whether Shedeur Sanders would fall out of the top ten and I was the only person to bet that he would. Not gonna lie though, I figured when he was still on the board at 21 Pittsburgh would snag him up. Instead, they went and got themselves a wrecking ball in Derrick Harmon and should be much better off! Harmon is the exact opposite of what you expect to find in Shadeur. He is the ultimate team player. He is a guy that doesn't care about being the center of attention; he just cares about getting the ball back to his offense to win games. He is a violent, collision loving bad dude in the best way. I am glad that Tomlin and Co. took a few minutes to do what's truly best for their team. Maybe Shedeur is still on the board when they pick today. Maybe he was humbled enough to see that there is still much more work to be done. He is talented, he is athletic, and he was also exposed by the Ducks and various other teams the past two seasons. If he can eat enough crow between last night and OTAs, there is a chance he can develop into something the league wants leading a team. If not, maybe he and DJ Uiagalelei can join forces in the UFL.
  3. These are gonna sting for a bit, especially with how well the relationships seemed to be progressing. 5-star OT Kodi Greene flips commitment from Oregon Ducks DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Oregon Ducks took a big hit on Thursday with the announced commitment flip from 5-star OT Kodi Greene.

  8. Just crazy how guys like Johntay can literally have a life of success sitting right in front of him for the taking, yet they still choose to do sketchy things. Talent was right there, a second chance was as well in the form of the Fuskies. All he had to do was occasionally go to class, go to his tutor sessions, play football, and his life was essentially made. Colt Lyerla will always be the Oregon cautionary tale.

  10. It would involve him being almost strictly involved in the day-to-day processes of the defensive side; including constant player development, creating plays, tweaking them for personnel. All of this I am sure he could easily do as he's done it before. However, as the HC of a much higher profile program than lil' bro to the north, I would wonder whether or not it would spread him too thin.
  11. Wouldn't touch this guy with a 40 mile pole. He is a walking red flag. Besides, our cupboard is completely stocked at WR. Still hoping Jurrion Dickey can emerge this offseason as our answer to a Jeramiah Smith type weapon. Jontay can go to Miami and be Mari-o's problem!
  12. Interesting article that names Oregon in the top two for him. Personally, I don't see Beck as a drastic, or even, an improvement over Dante Moore. Sure he has experience, but I think we have already seen Carson Beck's ceiling over two years. Not sold. I'm ready for some in-house developed talent.

  13. With the way to ball flies out of Dante Moore’s hands, we could see some serious deep shots. Malik Benson should also be a vertical threat with the speed he has. A 10.4 100 meter dash is pretty quick!
  14. I only see two games this season that it was used optimally; but even those looked more like QB scrambles than actual designed plays. Why did Gabriel get to run in the first tOSU game but not the second? Were they genuinely concerned about injury potentially derailing a playoff run? If that's the case then why didn't we see more of it in the second half of the Rose Bowl, when they should have had the playbook completely wide open?
  15. This is something that has always perplexed me with the Will Stein hire. Both starting QBs that he has coached during his tenure at Oregon have been described as mobile and athletic; more than willing to pick up yards with their feet. Now, don't get me wrong, I am well aware of the risk that is incurred every time a QB tucks the ball and takes it downfield. But in a program with an offensive mentality that has for the better part of 15 years, in some way involved the threat of a QB keeping it, I find it curious that some of the lowest QB rushing statistics at Oregon have been during the Will Stein era. Let's first look back at Bo Nix. His 2019 and 2020 seasons at Auburn both saw him run for over 300 yards and, if it weren't for injury in 2021, was on pace to post similar numbers. His first season at Oregon, under Kenny Dillingham had Nix running 510 yards! Yes he got hurt, but clearly this was a risk that was seen as acceptable at the time. Then came his one and only season with Will Stein. Although he posted a historical 77.4% completion rate, his rush number dipped to 234 yards. 4 out of 5 seasons saw him posting or at least on track for 300+ yards per year. Now for Dillon Gabriel. His 3 seasons at UCF saw him intentionally put into a passing scheme where QB runs weren't favored so much as a QB's ability to extend the play was; which he did well. Then he gets to Oklahoma in 2022. In a system much more designed to allow a QB to pick up extra yards we see him posting 315 yards and 373 yards in consecutive seasons. He then gets to Oregon for his one and only season under Will Stein (the longest season of his college career FYI). The 2024 season saw Dillon Gabriel rush a measly 149 yards in 14 games. We really only saw Dillon Gabriel snag yards in the most absolute clutch of scenarios (Boise State, Ohio State Pt 1). We rarely saw designed QB runs and when we did they were very far from effective. Bo Nix, in my opinion, only got above 200 yards his last season because he was given absolute command over the offense and changed plays as needed. I hope this is not the beginning of a trend for QBs at our school. We have often done so well and caught so many defenses flat footed by employing ALL of the legs on offense. Again, I understand the inherent risks associated with a running QB. But this school has been taking those risks for 15+ years. My worry is that Will Stein has trouble calling an offense that utilizes a ball carrying QB. We should be adding wrinkles to the offense, not taking them away.
